6.1 Some of the courses provided at Agora are eligible for “preferential re-enrolment”. That is when a student enrolled in a specific course has the right to reserve a place in the subsequent term of this course ahead of new students. For instance, a student attending Term I Maths will be given priority to join Term II Maths over new students applying to attend the course.
6.2 If the course is subject to preferential re-enrolment, parents of already-enrolled students will receive a notification ahead of time. If such is the case, you will have to confirm and complete payment for the course during a specified booking window in order to secure their spot. We ask for your understanding and prompt action on such notices, or your child may lose their spot.
