The Singapore flag
The Singapore flag shall be halved horizontally - red over white. It
shall have at the top hoist a crescent moon sided by five stars in a
circle, all in white. The ratio of the width to the length of the flag shall
be two to three.
The colour red is symbolic of universal brotherhood and equality of

The School Emergency Evacuation
The evacuation drill is part of the School Emergency Evacuation Exercise,
which includes crisis situations like fire, explosions, collapse of parts of the
school building and any other disasters. This exercise is usually conducted at
least once a year to familiarise staff and students with the school emergency
evacuation procedures. The objective of this exercise is to avoid panic and
prevent disorder in the case of an emergency. The time taken to complete this
exercise is a measure of the efficiency of the evacuation drill. The following
actions should be adopted according to the situations:
I. In the event of an emergency
• Stop all activities, be quiet and listen to the announcement
• Follow your teacher’s instructions
• Queue up quickly and quietly
• DO NOT pack your belongings
• Switch off the lights and fans
• Move quickly to the Assembly Area. DO NOT run
• Follow the teachers’ instructions at the Assembly Area
•
Movement to the assembly area must be quick but safe, orderly and
calm. Class committee members and student councillors should take
charge in the absence of the teacher.
•
Teachers who are members of the Emergency Response Teams will
check the premises to ensure that no students remain in the building
and any casualty will be evacuated to the First Aid Post by the First Aid
Team.
•
Office staff will bring the class registers to the Assembly Area
(i.e. school field).
•
Attendance will be taken by teachers-in-charge at the Assembly Area.
Students must observe silence at the Assembly Area and listen to
instructions.
•
No one is permitted to leave the Assembly Area until instructed to do
so.

Applied Learning Programme (ALP) @ SMB
What is Applied Learning Programme (ALP)?
In 2013, MOE announced that all schools are to implement an Applied Learning
Programme (ALP) by 2017. The Applied Learning programme will serve to connect
what students learn in schools with the real world. The intent is to help students
appreciate the relevance of what they are learning in the classroom, so that they are
more motivated to acquire knowledge and skills for the future.
Schools were given the freedom to choose the domain area of their ALP, as long as the
design of the ALP curriculum:
- helps students see applied links between classroom learning and the real
world;
- engages students in authentic tasks that mimic the real world; and
- helps students connect knowledge across subject disciplines. What is ALP at Sembawang Secondary School?
Our school-based ALP is an innovative curriculum that is aligned with SkillsFuture. It
is anchored in the Humanities and leverages 21st Century Competencies (21CC) with
focus on Critical and Inventive Thinking (CIT) through Media Literacy.
Why the need for ALP at Sembawang Secondary School?
The ALP curriculum at Sembawang Secondary School aims to develop students as
critical consumers and producers of media and knowledge in various disciplines through:
• critical analysis and evaluation of media sources of information in the Humanities;
• connections of the knowledge in the Humanities with Art and English Language;
• creation of media products;
• collaboration through productivity tools; and
• application of learning to real-world contexts.
What kind of media literacy skills do our students learn as part of the ALP?
To achieve the school’s ALP objectives, we have identified three aspects of media
literacy to focus our efforts on.
Firstly, our students will learn media reception skills. This means they will be
equipped with thinking skills to critically interpret, analyse, question, and evaluate
information from different media sources (e.g. print, online, visual, oral). Our aim is
for students to be better able to question the information they see in the media and
to discern any hidden messages or purposes. Secondly, students will be equipped
with media creation skills. Our students will be trained in using appropriate media
tools to convey a message, with the aim of persuading a target audience (e.g. creating
posters, infographics, videos, graphs, etc.). Lastly, we will also enhance our students’
competencies in digital productivity. Students will be guided in using appropriate
digital media tools (e.g. google docs, popplet) to enhance their personal productivity
and collaborate effectively with others. These are skills they will find useful when they
enter the digital age workplace.

What is our implementation approach and assessment format?
Sembawang Secondary School’s ALP was implemented in January 2015 for the
Secondary 1 Express/Normal (Academic) cohort. The ALP curriculum was delivered
mainly by the Humanities Department in collaboration with the Aesthetic Unit, English
Language Department, and ICT Department. It has provided opportunities for students
to connect their knowledge of the Humanities with Art and the English Language through
Media Literacy. Going forward, the ALP will be extended to:
• Secondary 1 and 2 Normal (Technical) Social Studies in 2016;
• Secondary 2 Geography in 2016, culminating in an ALP Project Work task; and
• Secondary 3 Social Studies in 2017, culminating in a social documentary video or
a poster or an infographic.
In terms of the assessment format, the Humanities Department has aligned the
assessment modes and weighting of the ALP with the MOE’s 21CC and curriculum
guidelines. To develop 21CC in students whilst helping them appreciate the relevance of
humanities in the real world, a variety of assessment modes is encouraged. Assessment
for the new Lower Secondary Humanities will have a balanced approach of Assessment
for Learning (AfL) and Assessment of Learning (AoL). There is a greater emphasis
on AfL through Continual Assessment (CA). This is to broaden the scope of learning
beyond the context of examination.
AfL takes place during teaching and aims to help students improve their learning. It
provides teachers with information on students’ progress and valuable feedback on
the effectiveness of their lessons. Teachers can use the information gained to scaffold
students’ learning to ensure progression. AfL also helps students to develop positive
habits of reflection and independent learning through peer and self-assessment. In
contrast, AoL, such as examinations, typically takes place at the end of a unit or term. It
plays a critical role in assessing students’ knowledge and understanding of the subject.
AoL yields information on mastery and attainment and provides a means to determine
the ability of students to progress to the next level.
41
To help students appreciate the relevance of geography and history in the real world,
the various assessment modes promote independent and authentic learning, foster the
spirit of inquiry, and develop collaborative and communication skills as well as lay a
strong foundation of knowledge in our students. The various assessment modes are
as follows:
The study of the humanities will enable students to appreciate the relevance of what
they have learnt and be able to apply and connect their learning to their daily lives and
to the future.

Values-in-Action (VIA)
Through our VIA programme in SMB, we hope to nurture students into appreciative
and caring individuals as part of a harmonious community. VIA forms part of the
total CCE experience and it seeks to develop values and promote active citizenry
among our students by engaging them in meaningful services to the school and
community.
The VIA in SMB takes on a service learning approach where students identify
learning goals and community needs (Ready), achieve conscious learning through
project implementation (Render) and reinforce learning through post-project
reflections (Reflect). This gives students experiential opportunities to learn in real
world contexts and develop skills of community engagement. The nature of the
students’ involvement in VIA ranges from service to school and the community,
overseas service learning to social advocacy on global issues.

The Co-Curricular Activities (CCA)
Programme
PROVIDING A HOLISTIC EDUCATION FOR SECONDARY SCHOOL
STUDENTS
A holistic education provides students with a broad and deep foundation for lifelong
learning. It also supports students to discover their strengths, interests and talents.
Besides academic learning, equally important is the development of values and life
skills in each child. To help students achieve holistic education, schools offer a range
of co-curricular programmes that complement the academic curriculum.
COMPULSORY PARTICIPATION IN CCA
CCA is an important and integral component in a secondary school student’s life.
According to MOE’s guidelines, it is compulsory for all students in a secondary
school to have a core CCA.
In line with MOE’s move, the school takes a very serious view and ensures that our
students have at least one core CCA.
A student who does not have a core CCA or does not attain 75% attendance in
his/her core CCA will be given a FAIR/POOR conduct grade in his/her examination
result slip. This may impact the student’s chances of receiving awards that may be
available to him/her.
SUPPORTING YOUR CHILD
As parents, you play an important role. Your child benefits most when the emphasis
on developing values, life skills and your child/ward’s interests and strengths are
reinforced at home. You can help your child to identify strengths, set objectives,
encouraging and managing commitments to ensure their continual participation.
Co-Curricular Activities (CCA)
1.Introduction
As CCA is an integral part of our educational system, the school has planned
and implemented a programme that is consistent with the national educational
objectives. The school offers a range of activities which caters to the varied interests
and abilities of the students.
2.Aim
The aim of the CCA programme is to: a) teach students skills, b) inculcate in them
desirable values and social attitudes, and c) provide for healthy recreation.

in inter-school competitions and SYF central judging, as well as those
who represent external organizations in their inter-school, regional and
international competitions. The points for the core CCA and 1 other activity
will be totalled up. The maximum awarded for Representation is 8 points.
Attainment points are awarded to students who attain awards that are of a
non-competitive nature, such as National Youth Achievement Award. Only
the highest points awarded for up to 2 activities will be totalled up. The
maximum awarded for Attainment is 6 points.
Accomplishment points are awarded to students who win awards at
inter-school, national,regional and international competitions. Only the
highest points awarded up to 2 activities will be totalled up. The maximum
awarded for Accomplishment is 6 points.
3.3d Participation
Points are awarded for participation in the main CCA with at least 75%
attendance rate. Points are also awarded for participation in intra-school
activities, school performance, SYF Opening Ceremony and National Day
Parade. Only the highest points for the main CCA and 2 other activities
will be totalled up. The maximum awarded is 10 points.
For students with an attendance rate of 50% -74%, the CCA points scored
for the year will not be computed. However, CCA points accumulated in
earlier years can be retained for computation when the student rejoins a
CCA and fulfils the 75% attendance rate.
An attendance rate of less than 50%, except for medical reasons, would
constitute a break in CCA and all the points accumulated up to and
including the year would be annulled. In such cases, students will only
secure their Enrichment points and Service points if any.
52
3.3e Service
Service points are awarded for student’s involvement in community
service according to the total number of hours spent in community service
over the 4 or 5 years. The maximum awarded is 5 points for 100 or more
hours of service.
4. Computation of CCA points (for Sec 4/5 only)
CCA participation should be sustained throughout the 4 or 5 years to reap
the maximum CCA points. Points will then be totalled up and converted to
a grade.

LEAPS 2.0 CCA Grading Scheme (For Sec 1, 2 & 3 Only)
LEAPS 2.0 is a framework to recognise secondary school students’ holistic
development. Students will be recognised with levels of attainment in four
domains: Participation, Achievement, Leadership and Service.
LEAPS 2.0 DOMAINS
Participation
This domain recognises students’ participation in one school-based1 CCA.
Recognition is based on the number of years of participation and exemplary
conduct and active contribution to the CCA. Sustained engagement in the
same CCA allows will be accorded higher recognition.
Service
This domain recognises students’ development as socially responsible citizens
who contribute meaningfully to the community. Every secondary school student
will contribute at least 6 hours per school year to the community. Students will
be recognised for the time they put into planning, service and reflection, when
participating in a VIA (Values-In-Action) project.
1
School-based CCA refers to CCA that are organised within the school or have been endorsed by the school.
53
Leadership
This domain recognises students’ leadership development. Recognition is
accorded to students’ ability to take charge of personal development, work
in a team and assume responsibilities in service of others. In addition to
formal leadership appointments, participation in student leadership modules/
workshops, the National Youth Achievement Award (NYAA) and leadership
positions in the school, CCA or student-initiated/student-led projects will also
be recognised.
Achievement
This domain recognises students’ representation and accomplishment in cocurricular involvements beyond the classroom. Students may represent the
school or organisations endorsed by the school.
Accomplishment refers to attaining accolades and awards at competitions,
festivals, performances, exhibitions, conferences and symposiums where the
student represents the school or other organisations endorsed by the school.
The details on the levels of attainment for each of the domains are attached at
Annex A.
Recognition of Students’ Level of Attainment
At the end of the graduating year, students’ co-curricular attainment will be
recognised according to Excellent/Good/Fair. The level of attainment will
be converted to a bonus point(s) which can be used for admission to Junior
Colleges/ Polytechnics/ Institutes of Education (JC/Poly/ITE).
Representation refers to being selected and endorsed by the school or an
organisation endorsed by the school (e.g. the community club or national

Learning for Life Programme (LLP) @ SMB
Our school’s Learning for Life Programme (LLP) is Nurturing Community Leader
and VIA (strengthened by Outdoor Education).
Our LLP rides on the strong foundation of SMB student leadership programme and
encapsulated in our Vision to nurture Every Student as an Inspiring Leader and
Active Contributor.
This programme aims to develop Community Leaders who are caring individuals
who are innovative in problem solving, confident and effective communicators who
are able to lead and serve to bring about improvement to the lives of others around
them.
Key attributes of a Community Leader
• Innovative - always be engaged in the improvement of the community. He/she
is willing to seek all possible solutions to solve problems.
• Confident - is adaptable and resilient, willing to make responsible decisions
and communicates effectively.
• Caring - is able to empathise with others and is supportive towards their needs
and growth.
• Active contributor - he/she is able to work effectively in teams and exercises
initiative.
Outdoor Education (OE), both at school and on residential courses, is a platform
to enable students to achieve the above attributes towards improving the school
community and beyond.
Leadership Programme
A 2-tiered approach is applied to provide different depths of experience.
In Tier 1, the activities are organised for the whole school population. In Tier 2,
activities are organised for the high progressing student leaders. These students
will be expected to demonstrate an additional level of competency and service.
In our student leadership framework, the 7 groups of student leadership are namely
the School Councillors, Class Leaders, CCA Leaders, CCE Ambassadors, ICT
Ambassadors, Green Ambassadors and Special Project Leaders.

SMB Values-In-Action (VIA) Programme
VIA programme aims to promote active citizenry among our youth and bring about
a greater sense of engagement and ownership. Teachers facilitate students’
discussion of community issues and ideas for making a difference. Curriculum time
will be set aside for students to reflect on what they have learnt at various stages of
their projects. In that way, students continue to apply what they have learnt, and be
active contributors and concerned citizens. Students are encouraged to initiate VIA
activities based on their assessment of the needs of their community.
The VIA Programme will have age-appropriate activities that develop the relevant
knowledge, skills and attitudes to put values into action. The Complexity of
Community Problem differs for the different levels (Sec 1 to Sec 5). There are 3
stages in the VIA Plan ; as stated in the diagram below.
• At Sec 1, students are the Change Makers @ Sembawang Sec, seeking school
improvements.
• At Sec 2, students are the Change Makers in the community, looking at the
issues of the community
• At Sec 3, students are the Change Makers in the region. As part of the Sec 3
overseas adventure camp, students will design project to improve the lives of
the community in Malaysian schools and orphanages.
• At Sec 4/5, students are the Change Advocates of global issues to inspire and
influence others to make a difference to something important that they care
about.

Our Vision
Disciplined and Responsible Learners
Our Mission
To educate our students to become responsible individuals in a safe and
engaging environment
Our Approach
The school adopts Restorative Justice in managing student discipline. This theory
of Restorative Justice is underpinned by values and beliefs that view wrongdoing
and wrong doers differently. The focus is more on the people and not just the rules
and code of conduct. There is a shift from zero tolerance towards behavioural issues
where wrong doing and inappropriate acts are viewed as teachable moments and
an opportunity for learning. We place importance on relationship and individual
needs and seek to achieve positive closure in managing behavioural issues. The
school also administers punitive measures such as caning male students as a part
of the justice process.
The school’s approach to discipline is guided by the philosophy “Discipline with
Dignity” where any forms of measures adopted in dealing with students maintain
the dignity and respect of both the student and teacher at all times. We strongly
believe in the principle of “Public Affirmation and Private Correction” where students
are recognised for good deeds publically and at the same time unacceptable
behaviours are managed in private.
The school uses Restorative Practice (RP) as a key approach when managing
student discipline.
Restorative Practice (RP) is an approach that aims to:
• manage conflict and tension by repairing harm and strengthening relationship
as a way of building community.
• promote building respectful and trusting relationship as a foundation for
teaching and learning.
• provide an opportunity for students to learn about the consequences of their
actions, develop empathy and work out a resolution.
Students are guided through a series of reflective questions that enable them to
realise their wrong doing and work out possible resolutions.
RP Questions :
What happened?
What were you thinking about at that time?
What are your thoughts been since?
Who has been affected by what you did?
In what ways have they been affected?
What do you think you need to do to make things right?

School Counselling
What is Counselling?
Counselling is a special relationship in which the counsellor’s job is to position
a mirror for the student to see himself or herself. We all have experiences in
which we cannot see things about ourselves without a mirror. Whether it is a
part of our hair that is not fully combed, something stuck in our teeth or a wound
in a place that is hard to see, we often need a mirror to see things well enough
to do something about them. We need someone to hold that mirror so we can
see the things that are at hidden angles.
In addition to knowing what angles to hold the mirror from, the counsellor
understands that sometimes it takes a while for people to see what they need,
especially if there are other things needing our attention. As people tend to be
hard on themselves, the counsellor knows how to hold the mirror in such a
way that the student can see himself or herself from a caring and supportive
perspective.
Counselling is not about experts fixing problematic people. Mirrors don’t comb
our hair, they just motivate us to pick up the comb by showing the areas that
need our attention.
Counselling is about reflecting to the student that he or she is being heard and
providing him or her an opportunity to hear himself or herself. Often, hearing
one’s own thoughts and feelings in another person’s words helps to clarify
things that may be hard to understand when the emotional storms swim around
in our heads without any form. When students can see a more complete
reflection of themselves, pain and all, they are more able to learn details about
themselves to make the necessary adjustments to lead a more satisfying life.
So what is Counselling?
It’s an honest and supportive mirror.
It’s a relationship that builds confidence.
If you need to see the counsellor, it’s not because you are weak; it’s because
you are helping yourself and you have help-seeking behaviour. That is the
beginning of a strength!
Do approach our school counsellor stationed in the Career Guidance room at
Level 4 should you need counselling.
Student Health Advisor (SHA) Programme
Student Health Advisor (SHA), a trained nurse, is available in school to provide
advice and guidance to students with health-related issues for timely followups. Students who are not referred by teachers or counsellors may make an
appointment on their own to see SHA if they have general queries about their
health. Health counselling will be conducted in the counselling room either
during or after school hours. All information shared during the sessions will be
kept strictly confidential.

Notes
Desired Outcomes of Education
The Desired Outcomes of Education are attributes that educators aspire for
every Singaporean to have by the completion of his formal education. These
outcomes establish a common purpose for educators, drive our policies and
programmes, and allow us to determine how well our education system is
doing.
The person who is schooled in the Singapore Education system embodies
the Desired Outcomes of Education. He has a good sense of self-awareness,
a sound moral compass, and the necessary skills and knowledge to take on
challenges of the future. He is responsible to his family, community and nation.
He appreciates the beauty of the world around him, possesses a healthy mind
and body, and has a zest for life. In summary, he is
1. a confident person who has a strong sense of right and wrong, is
adaptable and resilient, knows himself, is discerning in judgment, thinks
independently and critically, and communicates effectively;
2. a self-directed learner who takes responsibility for his own learning, who
questions, reflects and perseveres in the pursuit of learning;
3. an active contributor who is able to work effectively in teams, exercises
initiative, takes calculated risks, is innovative and strives for excellence;
and,
4. a concerned citizen who is rooted to Singapore, has a strong civic
consciousness, is informed, and takes an active role in bettering the lives
of others around him.
The Key Stage Outcomes of Education
Secondary
At the end of secondary school, students should:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
