Cyber Wellness
Learn how the school equips students to stay safe online and how parents can support good digital habits at home.
The MOE Cyber Wellness Framework guides the school in planning for our cyber wellness programme.
The Framework focuses on developing the child’s instinct to protect himself and empower him to take responsibility for his own well-being in cyberspace. Thus, this framework highlights three principles to guide students in their actions, describes a 3-step process to explore cyber wellness issues and encourages schools to partner parents in promoting cyber wellness among students.
Our cyber wellness (CW) curriculum focuses on three main principles:
Respect for self and others.
Safe and responsible use of internet.
Positive peer influence online.
