Special Student Development Programmes Offered

1) Applied Learning Programme (ALP): The school leverages on the new media through ALP in Sonic Arts, 'Music, Media & Technology' to provide students with a strong foundation and exposure to established and emerging disciplines such as Music Technology and Recording Arts (Music & Media). 2) Learning for Life Programme (LLP): The school's LLP on Community Youth Leadership (CYL) focuses on providing students with opportunities to lead in serving the community. The programme forms an extension to Values-In-Action (VIA) experiences and provides opportunities for Yishunites to broaden their understanding of the needs and aspirations of the community through authentic experiences and deepen the development of leadership skills and attitudes. 3) Curricular Innovations: The school provides students with authentic learning experiences through inter-disciplinary programmes such as School Area for Integrated Learning (SAIL) which functions as an outdoor learning classroom; and English-Mathematics-ICT-Science (EMITS) Day which immerses students in an experiential learning experience of the various disciplines. 4) Character and Citizenship Education Programme: Key programmes that build students' character include Citizenship Education Learning Journeys, Sec 2 Adventure Camp and Sec 3 Internationalisation Trips. The school leverages on its strong partnerships with various community groups for our student leadership and citizenship education programmes to develop "caring hearts" in all Yishunites.
