Second Minister for Education, Dr Maliki Osman, led a Review on Opportunities and Pathways in Applied Education to study how to better support the diverse needs and aspirations of students and graduates from the polytechnics and the Institute of Technical Education (ITE) while ensuring they are equipped with relevant skills to remain resilient and thrive in the future economy. The Review’s recommendations cover three areas:
i. Enhancing students’ career readiness and resilience for the future economy;
ii. Recognising diversity and providing more flexibility and opportunities for all; and
iii. Building stronger and more integrated support systems for all students.
The polytechnics and ITE will progressively implement the recommendations from Academic Year (AY) 2022. For more information, read our full press release:
