Vision

A caring community of Learners, Thinkers and Leaders

Mission

To provide a well-rounded education in a nurturing environment to prepare Tampinesians for the future

Philosophy

We believe that every child should learn and function in an inclusive, secure, caring, and stimulating environment to inspire a love for learning. As every child has the potential to excel, we, as a school, play the important role of equipping and empowering our students to become confident learners, thinkers and leaders. Additionally, we ensure that Tampinesians learn and practise good values to serve with empathy and care for the community and nation.

Sdp

The school offers a Learning for Life Programme (LLP) 'Creative Expressions: Character Development Through Visual and Performing Arts'. By actively involving students in artistic exposure, artistic creation, and artistic outreach, our LLP forms a core component of the school's co-curriculum. Learning through the arts, our students will embody intellectual curiosity in art-making, tenacity in learning attitude, and steadfast values in collaborative endeavours. Above all, Tampinesians should grow through our LLP to become individuals of good character who are responsible to family, community, and nation. To promote applied learning in the academic domain, the school has an Applied Learning Programme in 'Creative Engineering: Inter-disciplinary Authentic Problem Solving'. Using the Design Thinking framework, the school aims to integrate problem solving into the disciplines of Mathematics, Science, and Design and Technology.
