School Motto

Effort Determines Success• The motto Effort Determines Success encapsulates our belief that, when given equal

opportunities, all of us can succeed, if we have the determination and put in hardwork. Success is not dependent solely on the abilities or brains we are born with,because these abilities can be developed with the right attitude and effort.

• The word Determines highlights the importance of the choice every individual makes,in the pursuit of success.

• Success in the motto refers to success in the different areas of growth: cognitive,physical, aesthetics, social, moral and emotional. Success is about achieving the goalswe set for ourselves in these aspects; it is also about having the excellence mindsetand giving our best in everything that we do.

Thus the assessment will focus on:

School Values: Integrity, Kindness, Resilience, Responsibility, Creativity

In implementing Holistic Assessment:

• Use of Formative Assessment strategies to assess and engage students

School Values: Integrity, Kindness, Resilience, Responsibility, Creativity

• Less emphasis on single point assessment such as SA to ensure smooth transition from pre-school to primary school

• Less evaluative and more formative

In implementing Holistic Assessment:
