Sdp In line with developing 21st Century Competencies, students engage in Collaborative and Self-Directed Learning. Alternative assessment modes include coursework, journalling and skills-based investigations. The school has Talent Development programmes for high achievers, including its Future Problem Solving and Science Ambassadors programmes. Elective Modules constitute enrichment for NT students, providing opportunities for real-world learning. The school's Applied Learning Programme in Food Science and Technology seeks to develop students' creativity, confidence and interest in Science and Technology. The school works with external organisations to design customised programmes such as Timeout and Enhanced Step-Up programmes, and Transition workshops. Character and Citizenship Education lessons integrate the teaching of school values with the teaching of Social-Emotional Competencies. The Dunearn Character Development Profile is a formative assessment tool to help students take ownership of their character development. Pupil Teacher Relational Time is dedicated time for Form Teachers and co-Form Teachers to conduct structured dialogues with students. The school emphasises the internalisation of values and putting them into action through its differentiated Values in Action (VIA) programme. Students are involved in environmental awareness, school and local community awareness, fund-raising and Overseas Service Learning. Education and Career Guidance is implemented through Values Education lessons (which include ecareers.sg), visits to post-secondary institutions, and the school's Higher Institutions and Career Week. The school's Learning for Life Programme focuses on Community Youth Leadership which seeks to permeate a culture of school-wide community youth leadership development. It is the school's vision that all students will acquire the necessary knowledge, skills and values to be a personal leader, a team leader, a community leader, and a global leader.
