Curriculum Framework
The revised MOE Science Curriculum Framework encapsulates the thrust of Science education in Singapore to provide students with a strong foundation in Science for life, learning, citizenry, and work.
At Xingnan Primary School, our Science Department is dedicated to nurturing our students as self-directed inquirers and collaborative innovators. We seek to inspire a sense of wonder in Science, encouraging Xingnanians to explore, question, and innovate. Our programmes are designed to provide authentic and experiential learning opportunities that support the development of 21st Century Competencies such as collaboration, communication, inventive and adaptive thinking. We leverage educational technology to personalise learning experiences and empower students to take ownership of their learning of Science.
