ICT & Ed Tech
Discover how the school builds digital skills in pupils from Primary 1 through coding, making, and computational thinking, preparing them for a digital future.
ICT and Educational Technology
The ICT Department is dedicated to equipping students with the digital literacy and future-ready skills essential for success in a fast-evolving world. In alignment with MOE’s National Digital Literacy Programme and the “Find, Think, Apply, Create” framework, our school adopts a systemic and progressive approach to nurture computational thinking from as early as Primary 1. Through our Coding and Making programme, students are introduced to coding using screen-free tools like MatataLab in the lower primary years, and advance to block-based programming platforms such as Scratch, Microsoft PXT, and Code.org in upper levels. Supported by initiatives like the iMDA Code for Fun programme, students learn to break down problems, recognise patterns, design algorithms, and troubleshoot solutions — developing valuable skills such as experimentation, iteration, abstraction, and teamwork. Our students work collaboratively on real-world challenges, pitch solutions to peers, and proudly present their digital creations. These experiences not only ignite their digital creativity and innovation but also cultivate resilience, communication, and collaborative problem-solving – key traits of confident digital learners and creators.
Three photos show younger students exploring STEM concepts. In the first, children smile behind a bridge built with colorful Strawbees connectable rods. In the second, students collaborate around a table using Matatalab coding kits and picture maps. In the third, two girls enthusiastically build a small house structure out of vibrant magnetic tiles.
Three photos depict students practicing Sphero coding in an indoor sports hall. The students work in small groups, kneeling around large, white floor mats laid out with black track grids. They test and navigate their small, spherical rolling robots along the pathways, tracking their progress and collaborating with classmates.
Two photos show advanced tech lessons. On the left, masked students stand on an indoor court, using a controller to pilot a small drone hovering just above the ground for a Drone Coding module. On the right, students gather around a classroom desk to assemble parts and record their process on a tablet for a STEM in Authentic Application project.
