: Future Readiness Development Programme In line with our mission of developing future-ready leaders and thinkers, Innova Junior College offers a distinctive suite of digital literacies and education and career guidance (ECG) programmes. These initiatives seek to empower Innovians with the knowledge for making informed career choices, and equip them with the digital literacies to thrive and live meaningfully in a digitally pervasive world. Placing each unique individual at its core, our ECG approach seeks to allow Innovians to attain deeper self-understanding and acquire life skills for the reflection of one’s development. Each Innovian will also be guided to identify and better understand the macro drivers and characteristics of a few career sectors they could pursue through a range of exposure opportunities. Building on our strength as the national Centre of Excellence for New Media since 2007, the refreshed digital literacies programme empowers students with knowledge and competencies for communicating, innovating and working productively in the digital world. Through a range of lectures and workshops, Innovians will be introduced to topics such as computational thinking, new media design and communications.

114

For students who wish to acquire more advance technological competencies, the school runs a niche CCA, the New Media Arts Club. With our state-of-the-art Blue Studio and equipment, club members develop skills in 3D animation, high-definition film production and digital photography. There is also an Arduino lab for budding makers, designers and engineers to tinker with prototypes. Club members will also get to hone other critical 21st century competencies via learning opportunities with our partner school in Finland, and national conferences such as the Media LEAD and the Cyber Wellness Student Ambassador Programme Conference. Through these valuable learning opportunities, our students acquire critical work skills and build impressive portfolios in preparation for university and work. Student Leadership Development Programme Every Innovian is a Leader. The Leadership Index (LI), a college-developed set of behavioural indicators, is a developmental tool to help Innovians improve their leadership competencies. These competencies are honed through the leadership assignments, courses and mentoring structure which serve to develop Innovians over the course of 2 years. Students will acquire a greater awareness and understanding of leadership styles, philosophies and theories through the leadership courses which consist of modules and workshops conducted by teachers and external experts. Under the leadership mentoring structure, students also experience a culture of coaching and sharing by both teachers and their peers. Innovians apply their learning through the various leadership assignments which give them first-hand experience at planning, teamwork and execution. In the process, they also learn to adapt to new situations quickly. They also participate in programmes such as shadowing Members of Parliament during Meet-the-People sessions, dialogues with senior Civil Service officials as well as forums and learning journeys to key organisations related to civic and social issues. By participating in developmental courses, planning and executing college programmes and through monitoring their own development through our Leadership Index, Innovians are well-placed to be effective leaders and change makers in the world of the future. Innova Confident Communicators (ICON) Programme The art of effective communication is a lifelong leadership skill. Through the ICON programme, Innovians learn how to be professional and confident communicators. They are guided to craft and deliver effective speeches, groomed to speak with style and clarity in public and acquire the mental agility to think on their feet. The ICON programme equips Innovians with the ability to excel in their Project Work presentations and future job and scholarship interviews. Global Immersion and Exchange Programmes Selected Innovians go for overseas field trips to expand their horizons. Over the years, the college has worked with reputable local and overseas partners in Finland, China, Brunei, Vietnam, the UK, South Korea, Hong Kong and others. Students will have opportunities to apply what they have learnt in classrooms to real world issues as well as enhance their 21st century competencies such as global awareness and cross-cultural skills. Innova Scholars Programme (ISP) Identified high achieving students are placed in this programme to stretch them to their fullest potential. They are given opportunities to participate in academic enrichment programmes such as the Global Immersion experience and the Scientific Enterprise programme and in leadership development programmes. Scholars are also given opportunities to participate in local community engagement projects as well as overseas Community Improvement programmes in neighbouring countries (e.g. Thailand, Cambodia and Vietnam). In addition, they will also be trained in resume writing, interview skills and career planning to help them fulfil their career aspirations. IJC School Advisory Committee (SAC) Scholarships The IJC SAC offers scholarships to outstanding Secondary Four students who wish to pursue their GCE A-Level education at IJC. Innovians may apply for either the Academic or Niche CCA Scholarships.

: ACE@SR

- ACE@SR is a scholarship programme which aims to recognise our JC1 students with outstanding academic performance, excellent character values and a drive to serve and excel. These Scholars undergo workshops to develop their leadership skills and gain a global outlook through participation in the ASPIRE Student Leadership Development Series, SR Global Classroom Experience and the SR Internship Programme. They will also be given developmental opportunities in serving the needs of the college as well as the larger community through various service-learning projects.

ASPIRE Student Leadership Development Series

- The ASPIRE Student Leadership Development Series inculcates in our students the exemplary dispositions and practical skills of leadership, driven by the college values and based on Kouzes & Posner’s Five Practices of Exemplary Leadership. It is an intensive, authentic and applied learning experience that opens with Camp ASPIRE, the signature leadership training camp, and unfolds over a year of leadership seminars, coaching by teacher mentors, student leader networking, opportunities for servant leadership, and assessment through a 360-degree Feedback process.

127

SR Global Classroom Experience

- The SR Global Classroom Experience takes learning beyond the shores of Singapore. Through overseas field trips, students gain cultural awareness and a global perspective, imbibe the spirit of service through service learning projects, and gain insights to overseas business operations via industrial visits and networking sessions. Moral issues, national education and other thematic issues are discussed and become alive in these trips. Besides the widening of their intellectual horizon, students also experience the great outdoors via trekking and abseiling activities. Some trips in 2015 include:

a cultural immersion trip to Shanghai, China, to take a glimpse into the cultural, social and economic makeup of one of the most vibrant cities in China;

an outdoor experiential learning journey to Yangshuo, China, where students gained appreciation of environmental and educational issues;

a meaningful service learning trip to Cambodia, where students spearheaded and executed projects to serve village schools; and

a school exchange to Taiwan, where students attended lessons, performed service learning and forged friendships with students from the minority tribes.

SR Education and

Career Guidance - SRJC ECG programme aims to help students make informed education and

career choices. Through the school based curriculum, students explore the personal and environmental factors that influence their career choices. At the cohort level, the college also organises ECG experiences to extend and enhance students’ learning from the classroom. The college organises its annual career and higher education symposiums and talks to expose students to the diverse industry and university landscape in Singapore. Students also participate in SR Internship Programme to facilitate authentic learning and career awareness from the health, transport, legal, and food and beverage industries.

Get REAL@SR - This programme aims to develop SRJCians into champions of community causes, by involving them in Reaching out to the Environment, Aged, and Less Fortunate. Students can live out their values, engage in meaningful social action and hone a sense of social responsibility through CCA-based projects and fundraising efforts for the college’s key community partners.

Distinguished Speaker Series

-

This series expands SRJCians’ horizons by bringing to the college notable personalities from all sectors of life who have exemplified exceptional imagination, character and values. Some of the speakers who have engaged our students include Mr C Kunalan (ex-Olympian), the late Mr Subhas Anandan (prominent criminal lawyer), Ms Bernise Ang (Syinc Limited, Social Entrepreneur), Mr Royston Tan (Music Producer and local film maker) and Dr Tan Lai Yong (Medical Doctor).

Scientific

Insights@SRJC

- Scientists are invited to share their passion and knowledge from the frontiers of scientific research with our students to contextualise their learning of Science. Some of the previous speakers included Dr. Alan Colman, Prof. Shazib Pervaiz and Dr. Ng Huck Hui.

WILL Run

- The term WILL, read as ‘I will’, evokes the willingness of an individual to run

for charity. This is an annual fundraising event to fire the imagination and hone the character of our students. Staff and students run together in this event which emphasises on breaking personal barriers and in the process, builds up resilience to deal with life’s setbacks. It also cultivates resoluteness so that SRJCians will have the strength of character and the willingness to work hard to achieve their dreams.

: St Andrew’s Junior College (SAJC) provides a holistic education that aims to nurture the character and talents of all our Saints, and develop them to be servant leaders for a better tomorrow. We believe that every Saint can make a contribution to society, and we aim to harness this potential by enkindling in them a passion for learning and a spirit for the community. The College provides Saints with programmes through which their gifts may flourish.

Student Leadership Programme Based on the principles of Servant Leadership, SAJC’s Student Leadership Programme (SLP) aims to develop student leadership competencies in 4 broad areas namely Leading Self, Leading Strategically, Leading Others and Leading Practice. The programme focuses on developing the Qualities of Saints, sharpening Saints’ perspectives and understanding of their roles as global ambassadors for the nation and how public service can have a transformative impact on society. Saints having undergone the SLP are thus better equipped to be servant leaders in the 21st Century. Opportunities under the SLP include leadership developmental modules and workshops, student leadership competencies assessment, Residential Leadership Programme, Student Leadership Summit, Model United Nations Leadership Summit, Student Government Programme, Local and Overseas Service Learning, as well as involvement in the Anglican Character, Thinking and Service Leadership Academy.

Talent Development Programme The Talent Development Programme (TDP) offers Saints who are academically talented two specialised programmes that challenge them to fulfill full their potential, namely the St Andrew’s Humanities Scholarship Programme (HSP) and the St Andrew’s Science Scholarship Programme (SSP). The HSP and the SSP offer Saints exciting curriculum opportunities designed to prepare them for prestigious scholarships in both government and private sectors. In addition, Saints in the TDP are equipped with a strong foundation that will enable them to confidently overcome obstacles and take on new challenges in their development as a servant leader. Exciting Core and Elective modules offered will develop TDP students’ leadership, academic, co-curricular activities, sports and aesthetics talents.

SAJC Scholarships Apart from MOE’s awards such as the Good Progress Award and Edusave Awards for Achievement, Leadership & Service (EAGLES), SAJC also offers JC1 and JC2 Saints a number of awards and scholarships that have been set up by alumni and the St Andrew’s community. These scholarships and awards recognise Saints with good conduct, academic excellence, co-curricular achievements and outstanding leadership qualities. Visit our website for a full list of the awards and scholarships available to Saints and the criteria.

Education and Career Guidance Our Education and Career Guidance programmes aim to equip Saints to understand their personal profiles and exercise good and sound judgment over their career and higher education pathways. They also provide opportunities for aspiring Saints to obtain first-hand knowledge on the options available for local and foreign scholarships. In addition, the work shadowing programme provides Saints with opportunities to be attached to a variety of professions across industries and to acquire greater clarity on their career inclinations and an awareness of their intrinsic work values.

Innovation and Enterprise Innovation and Enterprise (I&E) is an important life-skill which prepares our Saints well for life’s challenges. Seeking to develop in them a mindset and outlook that favours creativity, initiative and self-reliance, the I&E programme gives Saints the chance to be mentored by local businesses and communities. This allows them to acquire a greater awareness and understanding of the strategies and challenges of entrepreneurial ventures, and access opportunities and resources to implement their business projects.

Art Enrichment Programmes SAJC biennially showcases our Saints' artistic talents in a series of concerts and productions. SAJC's Concert Band, Dance Society, Chinese Orchestra, Choir, English and Chinese Drama Clubs, and Guitar Ensemble take great pride in these concerts and performances. Saints learn soft skills such as leadership and management through the planning and execution of these concerts, giving them a truly enriching and memorable experience as part of their holistic education in the College. This opportunity to experience the stage also extends to all Saints with the College’s Open Microphone Sessions held at the Music Lounge. These are open to any Saint who would like to showcase their talent. Our Art Department also conducts workshops like tie-dyeing, which are open to all who would like to explore their artistic side.

Overseas Programmes We believe strongly in providing Saints with opportunities to be exposed to learning overseas. For example, there are curricular based enrichment and fieldwork for a range of subjects, and overseas immersion. The College has also partnered with educational institutions overseas providing our Saints with even more avenues for enriching their learning experiences. Our twining schools are Romain-Rolland Oberschule Gymnasium (Germany), Gumley House Convent School and Sir John Lawes School (England), Yangzhou High School (China), Triam Udom Suksa School (Thailand) and Vories School (Japan). Both sports and performing arts CCAs also conduct training and cultural immersion programmes on a regular basis. In addition, Saints are sent overseas for Olympiads and competitions, as well as community service.

: 1 YJC Customised Orientation for JC education The JC1 orientation in YJC is customised and distinctive as the Global Perspectives Symposium is a signature programme within the orientation. This symposium aims to help our students pick up skills that are useful for JC education and also increase their awareness of the diverse perspectives on key issues concerning Singapore.

To further bond diverse students from over 120 secondary schools and to build camaraderie and school spirit, the annual JC1 Adventure Camp is organised in term one. At this camp, students rough it out for a few days without the comforts of their homes to develop their adaptability and resilience, cultivate an appreciation of the value of teamwork, and the importance of leadership.

These highly integrative programmes complement each other and help our students adjust better to JC education.

137

2 Leadership Development Programme In alignment with the college vision, the Leadership Development Programme aims to provide opportunities for every YJCian to assume leadership roles. The eight ambassadorial groups, four academic councils, as well as leadership opportunities in their civics tutorial and CCA groups provide every student with ample opportunities to develop this important life skill. At the apex of student leadership are the Students’ Council and House Executive Committee and in addition to the leadership training they will receive, they will also have the opportunity for the annual Overseas Student Leaders Exchange Programme. All student leaders are involved in the planning, execution and review of college programmes and events; for instance the annual school-wide Celebrating Values Day provides a platform for student leadership development and community outreach.

3 Academic Signature Programmes Various academic enrichment programmes, with support from college partners, are conducted to nurture students’ passion and talent in different disciplines, focusing on deep foundations and promoting lifelong learning. In addition to the learning objectives from the A-Level syllabi, all academic departments in YJC offers at least one signature programme to provide a further extension to our students’ learning and developing both their cognitive and lifeskills. Our partners in collaboration with our teachers provide opportunities for our students to be engaged in investigative science research as well as attachment programmes with local universities and research institutes. Other forms of partnership also benefited our students through the Pre-university Seminar on Tamil Language and Literature, China Studies Seminar, Mathematics & Science Quiz. YJC offers the KOPI Talks series designed to promote active citizenry for our students through engaging our leaders in society.

4 Enhancement of Students’ Potential (ESP) Programme The ESP Programme is YJC’s flagship talent development programme, aimed at grooming academically stronger students for greater scholastic exposure. Through a diverse portfolio of experiences and structured learning, students will acquire substantial knowledge in a wide array of topics, ranging from principles of governance, security and economics to global trends in industry and technology, social enterprise and leadership. An outcome of this programme is also to nurture leaders who are able to better understand the complexities of policies and be committed and useful citizens of Singapore. The ESP students are also offered the opportunity to participate in the Overseas Student Leaders Exchange Programme together with the Students’ Council and House EXCO Committee members.

5 Yishun Junior College Scholarship The YJC Scholarship is awarded to students in recognition of their academic and co-curricular achievements. Newly enrolled JC1 students, who have chosen YJC as first choice and have a L1R5 of 12 and below, a CCA grade of B3 or better, and a conduct grade of “very good” or “excellent”, are invited to apply. The YJC Scholarship is also awarded to JC2 students who excel academically and have made significant contributions to the college and community.

6 Internationalisation Programme YJCians are given the opportunity to immerse in vibrant overseas learning environments and to play an active role in bettering the lives of others. Our students have travelled to many destinations through various overseas programmes, including exchange programmes, twinning, service learning expeditions and student leaders’ exchange programmes with several schools in various countries, like China, Thailand, India, Korea, Cambodia, Japan, etc.

7 Work Attachment Programme (WAP) An integral part of YJC’s education and career guidance programme, the WAP allows students to gain real working experience in careers they are interested in, and enables them to appreciate some of the challenges and realities at the workplace.
