Ministry of Education, Singapore (MOE)

The Ministry of Education is committed to bring out the best in every child by providing a variety of learning opportunities, nurturing the whole child holistically. The broad-based education exposes each child to different possibilities and ensures a strong foundation for learning in a variety of domains. MOE has created a variegated education landscape with diverse pathways, aimed at helping our children cultivate qualities such as creativity, confidence, compassion and resilience – life skills essential in a rapidly changing world. They also learn values such as respect, responsibility, integrity, care, and harmony; all of which are important for safeguarding our cohesive and harmonious multi-racial and multi-cultural society. Collectively, these are the Education Ministry's efforts to ensure that all our students acquire a broad and deep foundation for a lifelong journey of learning.
