21st Century Competencies Development
Discover how Pasir Ris Crest Secondary shapes students into leaders through a holistic curriculum built around five key learning outcomes.
In line with our mission of being “A Choice School that nurtures the hearts and minds of Crestian leaders to be the pride of family, community and nation,” Pasir Ris Crest Secondary has, since its inception, provided a rigorous and holistic curriculum. Through this, we seek to develop every Crestian into a Leader and Overcomer—equipped with the right mindset and skills, grounded in strong character, and confident to pursue and overcome life’s challenges.
In preparing our students for life in the 21st century, the school has identified five Desired Student Learning Outcomes (DSLOs) that guide the design of all our programmes:
Active and Engaged Learner
Adaptive Problem Solver
Effective Communicator
Self-Disciplined and Responsible Leader
Active and Concerned Citizen with Global Awareness
To achieve these outcomes, our curriculum is thoughtfully designed to provide every student with a distinctively Crestian learning experience.
Building on students’ mastery of subject knowledge, our teachers customise learning programmes such as our distinctive Enhanced Applied Learning Programme (EALP) in Effective Communication (opens in new tab), Literary Week (opens in new tab), Science Investigative Projects (opens in new tab), and the Integrated Aesthetics, Craft and Technology Project (opens in new tab). These programmes help students apply their learning meaningfully and authentically.
Our co-curricular offerings are anchored on key unique strengths of the school, including our Niche Programme in Fencing (opens in new tab), Learning for Life Programme (LLP) in Student Leadership Development (opens in new tab), as well as our robust in-house Character and Citizenship Education curriculum (opens in new tab). Signature experiences such as PRCS Cheering Competition (opens in new tab), and the Start It Right Programme (opens in new tab) further strengthen students’ character, leadership, and sense of belonging.
Together, these curricular and co-curricular experiences mark the journey of every Crestian towards achieving the school’s five Desired Student Learning Outcomes.
