School Awards - 2009

October 15th, 2009

The Ministry of Education in its move towards holistic education has broadened the definition of school success so that it is not skewed solely towards examination results. Schools that have attained commendable achievements in various categories are given awards under the Masterplan of Awards testifying to their exemplary school processes as well as excellent outcomes.
Our College has 4 awards this year attesting to the robust processes that have been put in place for the holistic development of our students.

Sustained Achievement Award - Physical Fitness
Our college was given the SUSTAINED ACHIEVEMENT AWARD in recognition of our ability to sustain good outcomes over a minimum of 3 years. We have sustained our Gold achievement for physical fitness through a well though-out physical education programme.

Cherish Award
The CHERISH AWARD (Championing Efforts Resulting in Improved School Health) recognises the college’s success in establishing comprehensive health promotion programmes for students and staff through fostering good physical, social and emotional health for teaching and learning; school organisation, ethos and environment; and community links and partnerships.

Character Development Award - Outstanding Development Award
The OUTSTANDING DEVELOPMENT AWARD (ODA) affirms the college’s effort in putting in place the processes to achieve character development. The award is given based on meeting a set of evaluation criteria, such as leadership vision and commitment; whole-school processes and culture of care; and shared responsibility. Programme comprehensiveness, effectiveness, integration and infusion are also taken into account.

National Education Award - Outstanding Development Award
The NATIONAL EDUCATION AWARD (NE) attests to the College’s strong and sustainable processes to build a strong sense of national identity and social responsibility. The criteria follow two broad categories of the SEM framework: Enablers and Results. Our College was awarded the Outstanding Development Award (NE) in 2009.
