Why 21CC?
Copyright © Ministry of Education, Singapore.
“... global companies now think about the world using
a framework called VUCA, which stands for volatility,
uncertainty, complexity and ambiguity. ... To deal
with the demands of a VUCA environment, good
grades in school are not enough. In fact they might
not even be relevant.
Instead, individuals need to be adaptable and
willing to learn. They need to have the confidence to
deal with problems that have no clear-cut solutions.
And they need to be able to work effectively with
others, across races and nationalities, and to
communicate clearly.”
Mr Heng Swee Keat
Minister for Education

safety.

Cyber Bullying is Getting Serious in
Singapore
In Singapore, a sixteen-year-old girl also
committed suicide due to humiliating comments
and insults posted by her boyfriend on her
Facebook page in the year 2011.
In the same year, a Secondary 1 schoolgirl
commented "Don't act cute” on a picture of
her friend on Facebook and it sparked off an
exchange of vulgarities on Facebook. She was
then assaulted so badly that she ended up in
hospital
73
![Page 74: Briefing for Parents (P5-6) meet... · Strongly discourage your child from setting up Facebook account (not legal age) If you consent, make sure you are ‘friend’ of your child](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022041418/5e1d497dc88d271d10381a40/html5/thumbnails/74.jpg)
Cyber Bullying affects your child’s
physical and emotional health and
also, character development.
74
![Page 75: Briefing for Parents (P5-6) meet... · Strongly discourage your child from setting up Facebook account (not legal age) If you consent, make sure you are ‘friend’ of your child](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022041418/5e1d497dc88d271d10381a40/html5/thumbnails/75.jpg)
Gaming Addiction
You are the key to controlling
your child with gaming at home.
Set strict rules on gaming.
75
![Page 76: Briefing for Parents (P5-6) meet... · Strongly discourage your child from setting up Facebook account (not legal age) If you consent, make sure you are ‘friend’ of your child](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022041418/5e1d497dc88d271d10381a40/html5/thumbnails/76.jpg)
‘Parents play a key role in shaping students’
behaviour in cyber space. Parents are critical in
anchoring strong values in their children to better
manage their child’s internet exposure. Through
the joint effort of parents and schools, we can
ensure that our students adopt the right values
and attitude when using technology.’
