Vision

A Vibrant Community of Learners who Lead and Contribute to Family, Nation and Beyond.

Mission

To Grow a Vibrant Community of Leader-Learners of Character who Contribute to Family, Nation and Beyond.

Philosophy

We strive to develop all our students to be learning leaders firmly anchored in sound moral values through a student-centric, values-driven education within a holistic learning environment. These values are infused into the academic curriculum, the Applied Learning Programme (ALP), the Learning for Life Programme (LLP) and the Character and Citizenship Education (CCE) curriculum. We develop character by building strong teacher-student relationships and trust. Our team of committed staff focus on nurturing students to give of their best to realize their dreams with courage, to succeed in life and contribute to the school, nation and beyond.

Sdp

The school is committed to equipping our students with the necessary 21st century competencies (21CC) for the future via our CCE curriculum, Values In Action programmes including Service Learning, a vibrant CCA programme, Creative Arts Programme, Leadership opportunities, Applied Learning (ALP) and Learning for Life (LLP) Programmes. Partnering with the Curriculum Planning and Development Division of MOE, our ALP on 'Sustainability' seeks to enable our students to attain the relevant knowledge, in particular, the Scientific Thinking and Engineering Design approaches. We also seek to develop 21CC in our students, especially Applied Critical and Inventive Thinking Skills (ACIT), values and attitudes to enable them to contribute positively and effectively to a sustainable 21st century world. Our ALP makes relevant the knowledge in our classrooms to our students' daily life experiences via authentic learning tasks, and enables our students to learn the process skills of design thinking, problem-based learning, and inquiry-based learning. The school is committed to bringing out the leadership potential in every student through our Student Leadership Programme (our LLP). This programme aims to build in our students the necessary 21st century skills, core values, and social and emotional competencies to face the challenges of the future. Our 'Educate-Encourage-Empower' framework and whole-staff involvement ensure an integrated and systematic student leadership development effort. Every student is 'educated' with an enhanced awareness of leading self and others, as well as relevant life-skills, and student leaders are given additional training to perform their roles and responsibilities well. Recognition structures are in place to 'encourage' personal mastery and development of leadership skills. Our students are also 'empowered' to undertake self- and class-initiated projects, to organise student-led programmes, and to give feedback and take action for school improvement.
