Term 3 Home-Based Learning Briefing Slides for Students (Secondary 1 – 3)

The purpose of this HBL slides is to help you to familiarise yourselves with the HBL

environment and the learning process.

The school has a curriculum continuity plan in place toactivate Home-Based Learning (HBL) to ensure thatlearning continues for students during school closure.

• HBL follows the syllabus and Schemes of Work (SOW) closelyso that we avoid any loss in curriculum time

• HBL is holistic in nature. For example, time is set aside for PEso that students continue to stay healthy

• It keeps students engaged in learning when they are unableto attend schools

• It gives students the opportunity to engage in self-directedlearning

With the end of the Circuit Breaker (CB) period on 1 June 2020, we enter thephase of safe opening. The Ministry of Education (MOE) will progressively bringstudents back to schools and Institutes of Higher Learning (IHLs) from 2 June2020, in a careful and safe manner.
