Through the National Digital Literacy Programme (NDLP), all secondary school students will own a school-prescribed personal learning device (PLD), which will be used in tandem with the Singapore Student Learning Space (SLS), as well as other educational technology tools, to create a student-centric teaching and learning environment.
The current PLD model for our students is the Lenovo 300w Yoga Gen4 (Enhanced). The cost of the device bundle can be paid fully or partly using students' Edusave account (for Singapore citizens). Students who require additional funding support can apply for subsidies from the school.
