Heart and Hands - more emphasis 
(VIA and Community work)
Same education system - those who are not academically inclined - may be successful)

Concept of Meritocracy - Cognitive Meritocracy 
E.g. MOE Scholar - different treatment.  Mid Career switch (number of experience) - advantages compared to an officer who joined MOE. 
Heart and Hands - more emphasis 
(VIA and Community work)
Same education system - those who are not academically inclined - may be successful)
Social inequality - Progressive 
Tuition Industry - Parents' mindset

* Harmony (ability to appreciate the differences between ethnicity and appreciate diversity) - welcome and respect conversations from different perspectives.]]> 2023-04-11 03:38:13 UTC https://padlet.com/zhenghuacce2022/big_ideas_from_external_scans/wish/2549595847 Home Group 5 https://padlet.com/zhenghuacce2022/big_ideas_from_external_scans/wish/2549596976 Generally our students are caring but they need to be given more opportunities to share despite the clique that they are in (increase in community spirit). 

Many family are not well-to-do; students from these families need to have the believe regardless of where they come from that they too have the opportunity to change their 'fate'. 
We should not give up in inspiring these students (and families).

P1 Occupations Day - Teachers can place emphasis on all occupations and how they contribute meaningfully to the society in their own ways. e.g. Doctors save lives not make money (priority).]]> 2023-04-11 03:44:43 UTC https://padlet.com/zhenghuacce2022/big_ideas_from_external_scans/wish/2549602350 Home group 3 https://padlet.com/zhenghuacce2022/big_ideas_from_external_scans/wish/2549602352 Our students are quite evidently inclusive, especially during recess play time. School players do not draw any line and invite their friends (even from other classes) to join in. 

They are also generally helpful and willing to support friends (eg: students in wheelchair or friends with SEN). Caring towards peers. 

Attributes they need more of: 
- self-awareness 
- empathy 
- initiative ]]> 2023-04-11 03:44:43 UTC https://padlet.com/zhenghuacce2022/big_ideas_from_external_scans/wish/2549602352 Home Group 5 https://padlet.com/zhenghuacce2022/big_ideas_from_external_scans/wish/2549604267 Allow students to learn responsibility (avoid over-protecting them). In turn, this will hopefully build up their resilience. 

Make conscious efforts to develop the 3Cs. 

Have more CCE infused into our subjects.
