CCE lesson on Gaza conflict to be customized for varied age groups, says Chan Chun Sing
Minister Chan Chun Sing announces better-scoped CCE lesson on Gaza conflict for various age groups. Despite request for slides release, Chan argues against it, saying they would be regardless be quoted out of context.
Addressing queries from MPs regarding the MOE’s CCE lesson on the Israel-Palestinian conflict, Mr Chan emphasized the continuous commitment to enhance the delivery of CCE, especially in helping teachers equip students to navigate the complexities of the world.
Responding to online discussions and parental concerns about the lesson, he outlined plans to tailor the material for different age groups.
For younger students, the content will be simplified, focusing on sensitizing them to the plight of innocent victims, encouraging empathy, and teaching emotional management in the context of the conflict.
Older students will receive additional guidance on discerning information sources, while the most mature students will have updated materials reflecting recent events.
Mr Chan highlighted that the updated content would include Minister for Foreign Affairs Vivian Balakrishnan’s statement last Thursday (29 Feb), emphasizing Singapore’s principled position on the Israel-Palestine issue over the decades.
The aim is to help students better understand Singapore’s national interest in the context of the conflict.

I wonder whether ah Chan can customised Hamas into different types or not? Or maybe he start off with customising his own Melayu kind which are the complainers of this issue. Like those who cannot make it and only to ITE at best, those who fxxk without condom producing many many offsprings cos it is the Will of their Allah and let their off springs become society problems or those who like what his own PAP said, re-offending again and again..and many other categories. First time and probably the ONLY time ,I will ever hear anyone saying ….YOU CAN CUSTOMISE… Read more »
Did u all notice CCS speaking ability has improved..ie speaking in parliament? More fluent…mustve been sent for lessons.
But that lau ah beng vibe still hanging on🤭🙄🤣
This whole MOE-gaza cce lesson again shows the modus operandi of the current kayu million$ PM/ministers:
1) pay themselves highest salary yet planning and execution of project can be flawed.
2) when public give negative feedback, immediately go into “cannot lose face” mode.
3) say (the usual) “we have learnt from the experience”, customize this, customize that . . . but actually is to save face.
4) Ownself Praise Ownself, Ownself declare public is satisfied with their BS excuses. Case closed.
5) No accountability who fuxk-up. No Blaming culture.
So Sia Suay, hor.
If there is NOTHING to HIDE …. then the slides should be released to the public especially since there is now a controversy linked to them. If the public can’t be trusted to react “correctly” to its contents, then how can we expect that teachers tasked with using them in the CCE lessons will also react ie: teach “correctly” using those slides?
I cannot understand why this topic needs to be taught in schools when it is on going. The story of the Rohingyas in Myanmar and their brutal expulsion would have been more suitable as it has ended.
Please include chapters on Leadership failure … On both side that led to wars. And explain with parental analogies …
Ki Chu, Mynmar closer, some more Whack Temasek by $20B. Already, why no talk in class.
Gaza why??? Can give PAP Malay Vote is it???
Come On Come Clean. Or Xia Suay.
