Learning for Life Programme (LLP)

Overview

Objectives of Programme

The desired outcomes of the Good Value @ BV are to engender positive attitudes and character traits in Bedok View students through a structured provision of opportunities. Students apply values learned in two areas: the CCE and CCA curriculum.

Specific outcomes would be observable demonstration by BV students of school and CCE values. Authentic experiences, aligned to CCE learning outcomes and values, are provided through suitable opportunities during PE lessons, CCA sessions and VIA projects in collaboration with different external partners. Students will understand the extent to which they have exemplified positive values and learn how to live out these values.

Programmes

The programme will consist of two tiers. A tiered approach serves to provide different depths of experience. Students from the CCA will be expected to demonstrate an additional level of competency on top of what is expected for the whole school population.

Tier 1 Programme

In Tier 1, all students will apply selected values / learning points from their CCE lessons using various platforms. The LLP will be differentiated and progressive through the levels by focusing on the following approaches.

LEARN
The approach refers to the lessons in the curriculum and co-curriculum which seeks to create awareness and understanding of BV / CCE values.

ACT
The approach relates to how students demonstrate their understanding of the BV / CCE values in various situations.

LEAD
The approach means that students will be able to go beyond personal demonstration of the BV / CCE values to using the same values to lead others.

Tier 2 Programme

In Tier 2, the target group is the Upper Secondary students and the focus is specifically on values related to student leadership and the approach utilised is mainly the LEAD approach. However, adoption of the approach in this tier goes beyond guiding others in applying only BV / CCE values. It also involves imparting and reinforcing specific leadership values to their juniors. The additional emphasis on leadership traits stems from the primary goal of CCA to develop all CCA members as student leaders.

Value-add of Programme

The Good Value @ BV programme aims to complement the other Student Development Experiences. In particular, it addresses two aspects. First, it will deliberately provide opportunities for students to apply what they learn about values, which would otherwise be missed out due to lack of attention to these opportunities. Second, it will touch the heart, i.e. internalising the values. This second aspect will require teachers to be able to facilitate the reflection and learning when students carry out the programme activities.
