CHARACTER AND LEADERSHIP EDUCATION
Character and Leadership Education (CLE) is an integral
part of the RGS mission to nurture the high ability girl to
be a leader who will realise her talents in service of
nation and community. The school takes a holistic approach
to CLE, seeking to integrate the cognitive, with the
affective and the social aspects of education.
In line with that, the KNOW, DO, BE principle is adopted
so that the pupil is provided with the necessary knowledge
and understanding of (KNOW) what constitutes good character
and leadership, given the opportunities to practice the
attendant skills (DO) and develop competencies and attitudes
(BE) of a person who is a
- A good steward of her life
- An active and socially responsible citizen
- A reflective and visionary leader
Character and leadership education is the plate on which
the Raffles Programme is served, as it is attended to at
four levels
- Infusion and integration in every subject
- School-wide structures, policies and practices
- Co-Curricular Programmes
- CLE curriculum
CLE Curriculum Focus
The Character and Leadership Education (CLE) curriculum
at RGS focuses on equipping the pupils with values,
knowledge, and skills that will guide them to make
appropriate choices, determine their behaviour and attitudes
towards self, others and the community. These positive
attitudes will develop them into morally upright, caring and
responsible citizens and leaders.
The CLE curriculum provides students with a clearer
understanding of community values, the relationships of
these to personal values, and the skills necessary for
dealing with issues.
