  • FURTHER EDUCATION in SINGAPORE in 2000 The
    FURTHER EDUCATION IN SINGAPORE In 2000 the Compulsory Education Act codified compulsory education for children of primary school age, and made it a criminal offence for parents to fail to enroll their children in school and ensure their regular attendance. Compulsory Education (CE) was implemented in Singapore in 2003 for children born between 2 January 1996 and 1 January 1997 who are residing in Singapore. The Ministry of Education (Singapore) (http://www.moe.gov.sg/) formulates and implements the policies related to education in Singapore and has developed a world- leading education system comprising the following levels: Pre-School; Primary; Secondary; Pre-University; and Post-Secondary. In the recent Global Competitiveness Report Singapore was ranked first in the world for the quality of its educational system (http://www3.weforum.org/docs/WEF_GlobalCompetitivenessReport_2010-11.pdf). 1. Pre-University Education Upon completion of secondary school education, students will participate in the annual Singaporean GCE 'O' Level, the results of which determine which pre- universities or post-secondary institutions they may apply for. Pre-university centres include junior colleges for a two-year course leading up to GCE 'A' Level, or the Millennia Institute for a three-year course leading up to GCE 'A' Level. Both junior colleges and the Millennia Institute accept students on merit, with a greater emphasis on academics than professional technical education. Students who wish to pursue a professional-centred diploma education go on instead to post-secondary institutions such as the polytechnics and the Institute of Technical Education (ITE). 1.1 Pre-University centres The pre-university centres of Singapore are designed for upper-stream students (roughly about 20%-25% of those going into further education) who wish to pursue a university degree after two to three years of pre-university education, rather than stopping after polytechnic post-secondary education.

  • Nurturing Youth to Engineer the Future of Singapore
    Media Release Nurturing youth to engineer the future of Singapore Engineering@Polys 2014 aims to stimulate students’ interest in science, mathematics, design and technology through real-world Engineering applications SINGAPORE, 2 September 2014 – Using a wind turbine to power household devices. Supply chain management of a blogshop. Putting together an audio amplifier. These are some of the activities that secondary school students can look forward to in this year‟s edition of Engineering@Polys 2014. Singapore‟s five polytechnics - Nanyang Polytechnic (NYP), Ngee Ann Polytechnic (NP), Republic Polytechnic (RP), Singapore Polytechnic (SP) and Temasek Polytechnic (TP) - have put together a four- month long programme showcasing engineering as an attractive discipline with diverse career opportunities. Supported by the Ministry of Education, the joint-polytechnic programme, held from July to November this year, will help secondary school students associate what they have learnt in the classroom – in subjects such as Science, Mathematics, Design and Technology - with real-world engineering applications. Asia‟s robust economic growth has led to an increased demand in several sectors such as infrastructure, energy, refined products, chemical, building and construction. The developments underpin the increased demand for engineering professionals. In the built environment sector, for example, the Building and Construction Authority (BCA) expects construction activities to remain buoyant and sees strong prospects for engineering graduates joining the sector. “The built environment sector is experiencing transformative changes with the push for greater adoption of advanced and productive technologies. Coupled with the sustained sectoral growth beyond 2030, the sector offers many exciting opportunities and meaningful careers for engineers to contribute towards shaping the built environment for all to live, work and play in,” said Mr Neo Choon Keong, Group Director of the Manpower and Strategic Policy Group, BCA.

    Media Release Temasek Foundation and local polytechnics launch youth leaders exchange programme with TVET institutions across the region TF SCALE programme aims to encourage cross-cultural learning amongst students on regional economic and community issues Singapore, 28 March 2014 – Temasek Foundation (TF) and three of Singapore’s polytechnics – Nanyang Polytechnic (NYP), Republic Polytechnic (RP) and Singapore Polytechnic (SP) – have partnered 10 technical and vocational education and training (TVET) colleges from across ASEAN to launch the Temasek Foundation Specialists’ Community Action and Leadership Exchange (TF SCALE), a student leadership exchange programme. Temasek Foundation is committing a grant of about S$1 million towards the programme. The inaugural TF SCALE programme was officially launched today at Republic Polytechnic. It provides a platform for youth from various TVET institutions in Southeast Asia to engage in a holistic learning and cross-cultural sharing experience. This includes discussions on regional economic and community issues, and opportunities to apply practical skills, technology and research in developing social innovation projects. A total of 300 students – comprising 150 from Singapore and 150 from Cambodia, Indonesia, Philippines, Thailand and Vietnam – will participate in the inaugural run of TF SCALE. To start the programme, NYP, RP and SP will each host 50 students from around the region. During the four-week programme in Singapore, the TF SCALE scholars will be engaged in various TVET-related academic programmes and participate in a series of workshops where they will work in teams to apply technical skills and knowledge to develop social innovation projects with their Singaporean counterparts.
