Over the last few years, the PSC has continued to enhance its scholarship offerings. Casting its net wider in its efforts to recruit talent into the Civil Service, PSC has begun to offer scholarships beyond students who have just completed their A-level examinations. In 2006, the PSC introduced the Mid-Term Scholarship, targeted at undergraduates in their second or third year of studies. PSC also started the Civil Service Internship Programme in 2006 to give Singaporean students studying in top universities abroad an opportunity to experience work in the Civil Service. 2007 saw the launch of the Overseas Merit Scholarship (Specialist) and the re-introduction of the Singapore Government Scholarship (Open). These scholarships aim to strengthen the talent pipeline for the Civil Service. The Overseas Merit Scholarship (Specialist) allows top calibre students to pursue specialised disciplines and work in professional schemes of service upon graduation, while the Singapore Government Scholarship (Open) provides candidates flexibility in deployment to the ministries after graduation.

This paper discusses the language policy for Chinese Language or 9 Mandarin in Singapore, with a particular focus on recent policy changes and the 10 accompanying policy statements. The paper identifies and explores three key features 11 in the recent language policy changes: a flexible and customized approach in the 12 teaching and learning of Chinese, a plan to nurture a core groupPROO of bicultural elite, 13 and the emphasis on oral communication and reading for the majority of students. 14 The paper argues that underlying the changes is the affirmation and continuation of 15 the government’s pragmatic approach in language policy and commitment to 16 bilingualism in Singapore.

Twenty-five years is a milestone age in the life of an institution. It is a time to celebrate the past, reflect on the present, and make plans for the future. 2. Hwa Chong was founded in 1974 as the first government-aided junior college. The College was established through the combined efforts of the Ministry of Education and a group of public-spirited community leaders including members of the School Management Committee of The Chinese High School. Hence, your Chinese name “Hua Zhong”, signifying your close relationship with The Chinese High School. 3. When Hwa Chong was founded, Singapore was in its early years of nationhood. Then, our per capita income was only about $5,000. Less than 5% of each Primary 1 cohort made it to university. Today, our per capita income is close to $40,000, comparable to many developed countries, and 22% of each Primary 1 cohort make it to university. Singapore has made significant progress in the space of twenty-five years, as has Hwa Chong Junior College.

    Principia - Leading Learning 1 President’s Message This is last in the series of 5 on the different areas that school leaders are called on to spearhead or show the way. We had started with Leading Culture then Leading People in 2014; we celebrated SG50 looking at Leading Nationally and Leading Change; and most appropriately we come back this year to the heart of all that we do – Leading Learning. We began by interviewing two principals who have had to lead their schools into a new way of learning. You will read Foo Suan Fong’s immensely down-to-earth approach in bringing a school out of the traditional ‘O’ level track into the Integrated Programme. You will also appreciate the amusing honesty of Lim Boon Cheng as she FOO SUAN FONG crafted a Future School out of a non-existent entity and met, on the way, the frank and unvarnished reactions of students to the challenges thrown at them. Yet despite the official categorising of their schools, these two school leaders showed that beneath it all, “If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and the enterprise is not that different – that never-ending journey every educator takes into become more, you are a leader.” finding out how students learn. But it is not only students who learn; principals also learn as you will find out from Ng Pak Tee. Pak’s Tee’s research - John Quincy Adams, one of Dr Foo’s favourite quotes into school leadership and its impact on student learning has made his input at the Leaders in Education Programme and his contribution to its design an integral part of a principal’s training.
