The SWS programme offers greater customisation of academic support for student-athletes so that they can travel and compete more frequently. The academic schedules of SWS are worked around the students training and competition plans.

Student-athletes in sports such as badminton and table tennis have been the main beneficiaries of the SWS programme which have yielded good outcomes. SWS student-athletes have claimed podium spots in many local and major international competitions, such as the Commonwealth Games, Southeast Asian Games, Youth Olympic Games and Regional Youth Championships, with a number of them achieving a spot in the world junior rankings.
