The Ministry of Education (MOE) will be
appointing 51 Principals at the 8th Appointment Ceremony for Principals
to be held on 29 Dec 05. |
|
They comprise 22 newly-appointed principals
and 29 serving principals who will take up appointments in other schools
(please refer to Annex A for the details). |
|
Principals are key to shaping and
strengthening the traditions and ethos of the schools. They lead and
inspire teachers, and work with parents and the community to prepare our
young for the future. |
|
As the front-line contact between MOE and
the public and parents, Principals play an important role in furthering
their understanding of school programmes and the education system. |
|
The process of systematically appointing and
rotating Principals not only enables schools to benefit from the
infusion of fresh perspectives, but also gives Education Officers the
opportunity to take on different challenges as part of their career
development. |
|
For the newly appointed Principals, the
appointment is a major milestone in their professional career as they
will be taking on stewardship of a school and the responsibility for
preparing our young for the future. |
|
For the serving Principals who are assuming
new appointments, it is an affirmation of MOE¨s confidence and trust in
their ability to lead a school and take Singapore forward in our
educational mission. |
|
The 8th Appointment Ceremony for Principals
is organised by MOE to recognise the important role our Principals play
in education. |
|
Minister for Education, Mr Tharman
Shanmugaratnam, will be the Guest-of- Honour at the Ceremony. Ms Seah
Jiak Choo, Director-General of Education, will present the Certificates
of Appointment to all 51 Principals. |
