The Science department aims to inspire Changkateers to learn with passion and be inquisitive in their learning of Science.  With the use of Science and Technology, we strive to engage our students in scientific inquiry and provide opportunities for our students to experience the real-world relevance of Science.

Key Programmes:

• Engaging Science Curriculum: Developed by our Professional Learning Teams, our curriculum was enhanced during Full Home-Based Learning and Blended Learning, ensuring engaging and interactive lessons for students.
• Innovative Pedagogy: We incorporate Inquiry-Based Learning and the See-Think-Wonder thinking routine to cultivate curiosity, critical thinking, and scientific reasoning.
• Applied Learning & Interdisciplinary Approach: Our Science curriculum integrates with the school’s Applied Learning Programme (ALP), Student-centered Opportunities for AeRospace Industry (SOAR), which provides students with aviation-related STEM experiences. The Science department also collaborates with other disciplines, such as Craft & Technology, to promote interdisciplinary learning.
• Science Talent Development Programme (TDP): Our TDP nurtures students passionate about Science and STEM, providing opportunities to develop their talents through competitions, research projects, and industry partnerships. Some of the key competitions and programs our students have participated in include:
• Singapore Junior Biology, Chemistry, and Physics Olympiads
• Bi-Annual C.B. Paul Science Quiz
• Temasek Polytechnic Engineering Olympiad
• NIE-NTU EPIC STEM Program
• VJC-SIT Project INSpire 2024 and 2025
