Education & Career Guidance
Education and Career Guidance (ECG) plays an integral part in student development at North Vista Secondary School.
Outcomes
The ECG curriculum at NV aims to achieve the following learning outcomes:
1. Understand the importance of achievements, participation and non-academic involvement in school.
2. Nurture one’s self-awareness, self-directedness and life skills to set wise goals.
3. Explore career interest and match it to prospective jobs. Plan the education pathway to attain the choice of career.
4. Inculcate an appreciation for the value of all occupations and how they contribute to the well-functioning of society.
5. Equip the students to make responsible decisions regarding post-secondary education and engage career stakeholders.
To support Vistarians in making responsible decisions to achieving their goals and aspirations, the school provides various platforms to enrich and empower them.
Career Seminar
Career Seminar seeks to provide participants
with insights into the world of work, create opportunities for them to engage
with professionals from various industries and fields, in a bid to increase
their awareness of the tenets of different professions and
industries. Through this, graduating students gain insights from
professionals from different industries and learn more about the tertiary
education courses of their choice.
Work Experience
Before Covid-19, a key feature of the ECG
curriculum at NV is the Work Experience Programme. Secondary Three students are
attached to well-established organisations for a short stint of work
experience. The objective of the program is to instill the importance of
appropriate work ethics and conduct while increasing their awareness about a
selected industry and/or area of work. We hope to re-establish this programme
for our students in the near future.
Elective Modules
The main focus of elective modules is to give
students valuable exposure and information on their choice of industry. The
modules aim to affirm their interest or broaden their career choices and
opportunities. At the end of the workshop, students develop a realistic outlook
in terms of career prospects which enables them to choose education pathway
wisely. This year, we piloted the Applied Learning Modules (ApLM) with Sec 3 NA
& NT students involved in a 3-day workshop in ITE and Singapore
Polytechnic. Our students learnt valuable skills in IT, Engineering and
Business domains.
Counselling
Our ECG Counsellor, Miss Pan Miaohua, supports
students (individually or in small groups) with the necessary knowledge and
skills to make informed decisions for a smoother transition to further
education or work. She also shared with parents during the Sec 2 Streaming
Webinar and worked extensively with our students for Direct-School Admission
for JC and Early Admission Exercise for both Polytechnic and ITE education.
Cyber Wellness at NV
Social networking sites, online games, video-sharing sites and devices such as mobile phones and tablets are now common fixtures in our students’ lives. In Singapore, by the age of fifteen, most youths are connected online via their smart phones.
The digital lifestyle and the evolving nature of social media have also given rise to a set of emerging and complex issues that can have an adverse impact on our students' well-being.Outcomes
Cyber Wellness programme at NV aims to nurture our students to develop a strong, resilient and positive identity in the online world that is reflective of their real life persona. This is achieved through building healthy relationships, both in the real and virtual world, and by making correct choices in their online interactions and decision making.
The guiding principles in the curriculum design are:
1. Keep students updated on the latest news and developments relating to Cyber Wellness issues
2. Encourages students to make informed choices
Cultivate healthy and positive habits that enrich their online experiences
