Secondary School Curriculum Overview

Our curriculum is designed to nurture holistic, value-based learners who will be ready for their next phase of life. We aspire to provide a comprehensive and meaningful learning journey that supports our students’ growth as individuals who can live independently, learn continuously and work meaningfully. It consists of four key curriculum blocks:

  • Core Curriculum
    • Follows MOE national curriculum leading to the Singapore-Cambridge Secondary Education Certificate (SEC) qualifications (from 2027)
  • Common Curriculum
    • Encompass Physical Education, Aesthetics, Character & Citizenship Education (CCE), Maker Education and Co-curricular Activities (CCAs)
  • World of Work
    • Exploration of personal interests, strengths and inclinations
    • Vocational exploration in the World of Work
    • Learning and practice of work readiness skills and
    • Continuum of work experiences
  • Learning for Life Domains
    • Strengthening effective independence and life skills in areas that are typically challenging for students with autism

Purposeful Partnerships

At SAMS, we are keenly aware that purposeful partnerships are indispensably vital for the benefit of our students and the construction of a more inclusive society. Strategic partnerships create opportunities for our students to learn authentically, contribute meaningfully, interact with others and gain vocational exposure. At the same time, our strategic partners develop greater autism awareness and acceptance which translates into inclusive practices at a personal or corporate level. We will update this space once our partnerships are established.
