Jing Shan Primary School

Our School Vision "Thriving Explorers, Mindful Leaders" inspires students to navigate the landscape and chart their own pathways with sensibility and empathy. JingShanites will nurture the Learning Dispositions of Motivation, Appreciation, Resilience and Creativity on their journey of thriving exploration and mindful leadership.

Our School Motto "United and True, Onward We Strive" gives students and staff a guiding principle as a team. The school community stands as one, remains true to its mission, and moves forward and becomes stronger together.The BRIGHT Values of Bravery, Responsibility, Integrity and Inventiveness, Gratitude, Humility and Tenacity are the anchor that guides and shapes the behaviours and actions of students.

We immerse our students in a School Culture that is propelled by learning (Learn for Life) and anchored by well-being (Flourish as One). Our School Operating Principles stand for our day-to-day endeavour to foster a positive school tone that is rich with care, respect and discipline; be a safe and health-promoting school; and provide a vibrant and stimulating environment for learning and growth.

The curriculum experience is the means to realizing the School Vision and nurture the Learning Dispositions. Anchored on evidence-based research in learning and well-being, we take a Strengths-Based Approach to Curriculum Design of programmes and experiences. We provide a customized curriculum to meet the needs of learners, achieved through thoughtful pedagogy which is effective and engaging, and supported by balanced assessment which seeks always to provide feedback for further learning and improvement.

The curriculum experience is powered by 4 Strategic Areas of Focus which are to Develop Critical and Inventive Thinkers; Ensure Student Well-Being; Embrace All Learners; Leverage People and Partnerships. They provide the emphases and the directions to take when planning for student learning and development.

In addition to developing a curriculum experience that is coherent and progressive over 6 years, we ensure that every year of learning and development for the child constitutes a suite of undertakings that are age and developmentally appropriate. To this end, we see every student going through three stages of development at Lower School, Middle School and Upper School. At each stage, there is a school-based Learning Focus, namely "Grow and Be Present" at Lower School, "Strive and Be Centred" at Middle School and "Flourish and Be Grateful" at Upper School. Our students advance and grow steadily in their Learning Dispositions of Motivation, Appreciation, Resilience and Creativity and take steps towards the School Vision of "Thriving Explorers, Mindful Leaders".
