National Education

National Education comprises a wide range of school efforts that help students experience and explore their national identity as Singaporeans, understand the realities and challenges unique to our nation and foster a sense of hope and belonging to Singapore. A strong sense of belonging, reality and hope motivates our students to be active citizens. While they seek to achieve their personal life goals, they also see themselves as playing a contributory role in their families, school, and immediate communities. NE in CCE aims to be empowering and aspirational, allowing for individual sense-making so as to nurture engaged citizens, who are socially aware, adept at critical thinking, and informed about local, regional and global issues.

In Meridian, ‘Head’, ‘Heart’ and ‘Hands’ will be the focus of engagement in the NE Framework – where ‘Head’ is learning NE, ‘Heart’ is loving NE and ‘Hands’ is leading NE. This is in alignment with our School Motto of “To Learn, To Love, To Lead”.
