Director of Schools Ms Liew Wei Li on the Safe Opening of Schools

 

“Adversity can produce tenacity. Adversity can also produce audacity. Because we have found new ways of learning,” says Ms Liew Wei Li, Deputy Director-General of Education (Schools).

In this video, she speaks to a parent, and shares how teachers are looking forward to welcoming students back in school, and how many are working behind the scenes to prepare for a safe opening after the circuit breaker period.

“We have surprised even ourselves. The students have surprised themselves. I think we need to give our students a bit more credit for how independent they’ve become, how self-directed they’ve become in learning and we’re very, very happy to see that they’ve grown so much.”
