A Friend, Mentor, and Leader.
You started this journey and left lasting impressions of love and grace on our lives.
It is now complete, but you shall not be forgotten.
There is great interest internationally to understand the success of the Singapore education system in the light of its strong and consistent results in international tests, such as PISA, TIMSS and PIRLS. Singapore ranks consistently among the top few countries for Reading, Mathematics and Science (OECD ).
Notwithstanding its success, the Singapore education system is changing to help prepare its students for the more complex and demanding socio-economic environment of the twenty-first century. It continuously evolves to ensure that their students are well placed and well prepared to meet the emerging demands of a knowledge-driven global economy (MOE ).
Every school, a good school;
Every student, an engaged learner;
Every teacher, a caring educator and
Every parent, a supportive partner.
To be able to do so, a key success factor is school leadership, in particular, that is exercised by the school principal. Although there are still arguments to whether the effect of a principal is direct or indirect, principals are generally perceived as having significant impact upon school effectiveness (read for example Hallinger and Heck ). While there can be many variables that have effects on student learning in school, only the principal can create the conditions under which these individual variables combine synergistically in school to enhance learning. Singapore believes in the importance of the work of the school principal in bringing about educational change.
Principals are the critical interface between MOE HQ and the ground, between the current reality and our desired future. The actions of our 360 Principals have a tremendous impact on 33,000 teachers and over half a million students. (Heng )
Principals have the challenging task of developing a positive school culture so that people are united in achieving the common goal of the entire system.
A supportive school culture is critical. There is nothing like school leaders and HODs coming together, with the Senior Teachers and Lead Teachers in the school, to create this culture of support, and this culture of understanding this is key to making Every School a Good School. (Heng )
