CCE Department
Department Vision: Every Child A Student of Character
Department Mission: To develop the Moral & Social domains of every child
In Endeavour (EDP), not only are we concerned with the students’ academic achievements, the inculcating of the right moral values and moulding them into good citizens is also vital to us.
Under EDP’s Character & Citizenship Education (CCE), there are 4 main programmes:
- Character Development Programme
- National Education
- Values-in Action Programme
- Student Leadership Programme
EDP’s Character Development Programme focuses on inculcating the 7 school values – Diligence; Perseverance; Integrity; Innovation; Compassion; Respect & Responsibility; into our pupils. Assembly Talks on the school values are conducted termly, in which pupils, teachers or other EDP staff members that have exhibited the school values to a great degree will be highlighted. Students are also encouraged to reflect on the message delivered at the Assembly Talk by completing a customised level-based Reflection Worksheet after the talk. This message will be further reinforced during Form Teacher Guidance Period (FTGP) where Form and Co-Form Teachers will conduct school-based Values Education lessons or workshops for the pupils.

Character & Citizenship Education (CCE) Lessons
During CCE lessons, our students learn to be responsible to family and community, and understanding their roles in shaping the future of our nation. The emerging trends and global developments that impact our society such as societal changes, globalisation are taken into consideration when developing CCE curriculum.
Form Teacher Guidance Period (FTGP) Lessons
The one period per week FTGP lesson not only provides opportunity for teachers to equip students with social and emotional competencies, but also allows for more quality teacher-student interaction.
National Education (NE)
National Education (NE) aims to develop national cohesion, cultivate the instinct for survival as a nation and instil in our students, confidence in our nation’s future. It also emphasises on cultivating a sense of belonging and emotional rootedness to Singapore. In EDP, we commemorate the 4 NE Events – Total Defence Day; International Friendship Day; Racial Harmony Day & National Day; by customising NE-Focussed Lessons that are integrated into the Social Studies & Character & Citizenship Education lessons.
NE Learning Journey
The students always look forward to trips out of the school as it provides an important learning experience for them.
Rainbow Day cum NE events
Our students celebrate Total Defence Day, International Friendship Day and Racial Harmony Day in conjunction with the school’s signature Rainbow Days.
National Day Celebrations
To celebrate our young nation’s birthday, a formal observance ceremony is held in the school parade square, followed by a concert in the hall.

NE Show
Every year, our P5 students will have the privilege to watch the National Day Parade (NDP) full dress rehearsal.

Values-in Action (VIA)
Values-in Action (VIA) Programme is the key instrument in the co-curriculum to develop students to be Socially Responsible. The VIA programme adopts a progressive, age-appropriate and systematic approach across all levels to drive Values-based Holistic Education and enable them to contribute to the betterment of others and care for the environment. It is also a platform for students to reflect on what they have learnt in their VIA experiences. These efforts will make the VIA experiences more meaningful, so that students are more likely to continue their involvement in the community, even after they have left EDP. Such sustained commitment helps to build a more caring society.

Caring for our environment
EDP students are taught the importance of taking care of our environment by adopting the 3Rs – Reduce, Recycle, Reuse. Examples of projects include working together with various stakeholders towards becoming a Zero Waste Nation by reducing our water and electricity consumption, as well as reusing and recycling all materials to give them a second lease of life. Students get hands-on experiential learning and be involved in recycling activity, showing them that everyone can make a difference by conserving resources through simple acts, thereby contributing towards sustainable living.

 |
Caring for the elderly
In EDP, our students are also taught the importance of caring and taking care of the elderly. Once a year, our students, teachers, and parents volunteers will spend a meaningful afternoon at the elderly Homes, including making crafts with them, listening to their interesting stories/real life experiences about Singapore in the olden days. Everyone has learnt that each of us has a part to play to make a difference in the community.

Caring for those in need
EDP Cares Flag Day: SAVH Fund Raising.
EDP Cares Flag Day is an annual event planned and organized by the Prefects EXCO in support of Singapore Association of Visually Handicapped (SAVH). It is organised to raise funds for the Singapore Association of the Visually Handicapped (SAVH), a voluntary welfare association that seeks to integrate the visually handicapped into the community. We hope to develop compassion in our pupils for the less privileged in our society.

EDP’s Student Leadership Programme focuses on providing leadership opportunities for every child. In class, Form Teachers will assign the students with different roles and responsibilities. The role of Class Monitors will be rotated termly – so as to give as many students as possible the opportunity to lead their class. Students too may be assigned leadership roles by their Co-Curricular Activity (CCA) Teachers-In-Charge. Students who have proven to be capable leaders, may then be selected to be Prefects or CCA Leaders.
Prefects’ Investiture
After a vigorous selection process, students who have been selected to be Endeavour’s Ambassadors will be formally unveiled to the whole school during the Prefects’ Investiture.
 |
 |
Training for Prefects
Prefects will undergo a structured and customised leadership training programme. The workshops and trainings help our young leaders to hone their leadership skills.
 |
 |
Student Leaders Camp
Once a year, our student leaders will undergo a leadership camp to equip them with the necessary knowledge and skills to be an effective leader.
P4/P3 Buddy Leaders Programme
Every year, our P4 and some P3 students will buddy up with our P1 students to guide and assist them with their first few days in EDP.
