Research Studies
The curriculum is designed to develop information
literacy and research skills in our students, prepare
them for lifelong learning, and enable them to
contribute to the knowledge community to effect societal
improvement. The curriculum also readies our students
for higher-level external mentorship projects with
universities and institutes of higher learning, where
our students are given avenues to challenge their
cognitive development and creativity through research
work under the guidance of a professional.
Project assignments are inquiry-based and
constructivist in approach, focusing on the process of
authentic learning in solving problems. In this way, a
platform is provided for students to integrate and apply
their knowledge from the classroom to real world issues.
Students are able to engage in research projects in a
range of areas. These include Science, Mathematics,
Engineering, IT, Business, Humanities, Creative Writing
and the Fine Arts. As projects are typically of a high
intellectual standard, many students go on to showcase
their work at various local and international programmes
and competitions, including the Singapore Science &
Engineering Fair, Odyssey of the Mind and Future Problem
Solving Program.
