The government had felt that a thorough review was crucial to align the education system with the rapidly changing social and economic needs of the country. A key aim of the exercise was to consider how education policies and their implementation could be made more flexible to enable each child to learn at a pace suited to his or her ability. The resultant recommendations laid the foundations for a system of ability-driven education based on streaming known as the New Education System (NES). | [New Education System] -- Shortcomings in the education system -- Recommendations -- Primary schools -- Secondary schools -- Effectiveness and subsequent changes -- Author -- References. | NA | Education {18339995}|Politics and Government {18336134} | eng | NLB Collections>>Singapore Collection>>Singapore Infopedia | Article {18335714} | NA | The information on this page and any images that appear here may be used for private research and study purposes only.

Built at the cost of S$20 million, the Science Centre was set up to promote interest and learning in science and technology to students and the general public. This objective came at a time when Singapore was industrialising rapidly and going up the technology ladder was all-important. The centre was appropriately sited in Jurong, near Jurong industrial estate, Singapore’s first industrial hub. | [Singapore gets a science centre] -- Proposing a science centre -- Rising costs -- The Singapore Science Centre -- Building on its success -- References. | Singapore Science Centre|Science museums--Singapore | Streets and Places {18336099}|Education {18339995}|Science and technology {18486535}|Museums {18336168} | eng | NLB Collections>>Singapore Collection>>Singapore Infopedia | Article {18335714} | NA | The information on this page and any images that appear here may be used for private research and study purposes only.

Woolley to look into the state of education in the Straits Settlements, which comprised Singapore, Melaka and Penang. The resultant “Report of the Select Committee of the Legislative Council to Enquire into the State of Education in the Colony” was the first thorough review of local education after the Straits Settlements had become a crown colony in 1867. Commonly referred to as the Woolley Report, it was presented to the Straits Settlements Legislative Council on 8 December 1870.

Few remember the contributions of the local intellectuals in as far as leading educational reforms before the 1900s is concerned. These reformers were multicultural both in their background and outlook, and were perhaps pioneers in setting the foundation for modernising and indigenising the old curricula before the winds of change in the 20th century brought about revolutionary transformations. Two notable pioneers in this field are Chan Kim Boon(1851-1920) and Khoo Seok Wan (1874-1941). | NA | Educational change--Singapore|Reformers--Singapore | Education {18339995} | chi | NLB Collections>>Publications>>BiblioAsia {16180172}|NLB Collections>>Index to Singapore Information {16145204} | Article {18335714} | All Rights Reserved.

It was initiated with the objective of combining history, geography and civics, in addition to imparting moral values. However, it was eventually scrapped since the government was more concerned with instilling strong moral ideals rather than offering theoretical lessons in civics and democratic values. Another reason for the programme’s failure was the fact that EFL lessons were used to teach Chinese — since the booklets and the accompanying teachers’ manuals were published in Chinese. EFL was the epitome of civics education in Singapore in the 1970s, but only for a very short time. | Advent of EFL -- Demise of EFL and civics -- Conclusion -- Endnotes. | Moral education--Singapore | Education {18339995} | eng | NLB Collections>>Publications>>BiblioAsia|NLB Collections>>Publications>>BiblioAsia {16180172} | Article {18335714} | All Rights Reserved.

He was often associated with the rehabilitation of postwar Singapore, and the reconstitution of Singapore’s legislative bodies – including that of the Legislative Council, which represented a bold start in Singapore's journey towards self-government. Gimson also introduced the Income Tax Ordinance in 1947, a task that previous administrators had been unable to do, and which was a response to the wide-ranging welfare improvements planned for Singapore’s postwar rehabilitation. | [Franklin Charles Gimson] -- Career in Ceylon and Hong Kong -- Reforms -- Assassination attempt -- Honours -- Retirement -- Death -- Family -- References -- Further resources. | Colonial administrators--Singapore|Gimson, Franklin Charles, 1890-1975 | Personalities {18336114}|Politics and Government {18336134}|Education {18339995}|Colonial administrators {18336119} | eng | NLB Collections>>Singapore Collection>>Singapore Infopedia {10126} | Article {18335714} | NA | The information on this page and any images that appear here may be used for private research and study purposes only.

Founded in Scotland in 1883, it is a Christian organisation that seeks to nurture boys into responsible Christian men instilled with values such as obedience, reverence and discipline. The BB was established in Singapore in 1930 as part of the brigade’s global movement. The battalion in Singapore then took on its current name, The Boys’ Brigade in Singapore (BBS), in 1968. By expanding beyond churches and mission schools to secular schools, the BBS has grown from about 2,000 members in 1980 to some 7,000 members currently. | [The Boys’ Brigade in Singapore] -- Background -- Establishment in Singapore -- Key developments -- Membership structure and programmes -- Uniforms -- Activities and achievement recognition -- Community service -- Band -- BB Day -- Headquarters -- The Stedfast Association -- Timeline -- References. | Boys' Brigade (Singapore)|Boys--Societies and clubs--Singapore | Organisations {18455234}|Sports and Recreation {18486681}|Education {18339995} | eng | NLB Collections>>Singapore Collection>>Singapore Infopedia {10126} | Article {18335714} | NA | The information on this page and any images that appear here may be used for private research and study purposes only.

The Ministry of Education (MOE) has implemented a holistic and secular sexuality education curriculum in schools to meet students’ developmental needs at different stages. The curriculum currently comprises two main programmes: The Growing Years (GY) and Empowered Teens (eTeens) that span from primary to junior college (JC)/centralised institute (CI) levels. The curriculum aims to enhance students’ understanding of the physiological, social and emotional changes they might experience as they mature, build relationships and make decisions in sexuality matters. Sexuality education programmes in schools are constantly reviewed by MOE to ensure that they remain relevant and serve the needs of students. | [Sexuality education] -- Background -- Curriculum -- The Growing Years -- eTeens -- Other sexuality education programmes -- Controversies -- References. | Sex instruction--Singapore|Sexual health--Singapore | Sex education {18337024} | eng | NLB Collections>>Singapore Collection>>Singapore Infopedia | Article {18335714} | NA | The information on this page and any images that appear here may be used for private research and study purposes only.
