After secondary school, adulthood is just round the corner. For most, it's a time of hard choices and important decisions. RP is therefore proud to launch the 𝗕𝗲𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗚𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗠𝗲 framework at an event hosted by Principal & CEO, Ms Jeanne Liew. The framework aims to prepare youths for a dynamic future, as well as offer them time and flexibility to flesh out their ambitions. From Academic Year 2025, students are taught to build a roadmap for personal and professional life through the acclaimed 𝗗𝗲𝘀𝗶𝗴𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗬𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗟𝗶𝗳𝗲 (DYL) approach. Pioneered at Stanford University by Professor Bill Burnett and Dave Evans, DYL kickstarts the individual's journey into determining where they are today and where they want to be after graduating. Armed with clearer goals, students embark on the next phase- 𝗗𝗲𝘀𝗶𝗴𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗬𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗟𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴- where they can shape their own pathway via: - Common Entry Programmes (CEP): for students who need more time to decide on a field of study. - Broad-Based Diploma Programmes: for students who prefer multi-disciplinary learning. - Expertise Deepening Programmes: for students who already have clear career goals and want to quickly gain practical experience. With 19 minor options to choose- ranging from entrepreneurship and visual design to bioinformatics and F&B Startup- students can seize unparalleled opportunities to blend passion and practice. Rounding off RP's unique education is the 𝗗𝗲𝘀𝗶𝗴𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗬𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗜𝗺𝗽𝗮𝗰𝘁 programme, which integrates 'white space' into curriculum for students to pursue their interests, particularly in community engagement. But Becoming #GreaterMe is a lifelong odyssey. Even after graduation, #RPalumni are invited to return to RP and engage their mentors to assess, tweak and discover new opportunities from their DYL roadmap. Explore an education that delivers #GreaterPossibilities at www.rp.edu.sg/greater-me. #DiscoverRP #BeSoMuchMore
