Digital Literacy Programme Our curriculum has been refreshed and embedded with digital literacy skillsets which form essential ICT skills for our students to thrive as 21st century learners in a digital environment. It also includes heightening our students’ awareness of Cyber Wellness to be responsible digital learners. The Digital Literacy Programme guides our students to be more proficient and confident users of the various software and devices as they progress through the levels over the years. As students build up their competence with these ICT skillsets, they will be able to apply, demonstrate their learning and create their learning artefacts in different creative ways. Level Programmes:
|
- Respect for self and others.
- Safe and responsible use.
- Positive peer influence.
- Sense – Identify possible online risks and protect themselves.
- Think – Analyse, evaluate and reflect on a situation based on the CW principles
- Act – Take actions to keep safe and be a positive influence online.

Home-Based Learning (HBL)
Students
participate in yearly Home-Based Learning and e-Learning exercises to develop
self-directedness in online learning. This is part of the school Curriculum
Continuity Plan which prepares our learners to be ready to continue their
learning during prolonged school closure.
In 2020, students put into practice the ICT skills they have learnt in school during the full HBL from April to June. Teachers designed lessons on online platforms such as Student Learning Space (SLS) and Classkick. As self-directed learners at home, students completed the assignments virtually. Through the online submissions of assignments, teachers were able to monitor students’ learning. Back in school, teachers continue to provide students with feedback on their performances and support them in reinforcing their learning.
