InfoComm Technology
ICT Committee Goal
To nurture each pupil in TVPS to be Competent Users of ICT
Approach
The ICT Committee adopts a holistic approach to the learning of appropriate
skills and values towards ICT usage. Our programme seeks to enable
pupils to become competent users of ICT.
In line with the school’s ethos of preparing learners for life, ICT skills are taught to students to equip them with the necessary InfoComm skills to engage learning. The planned exposure and skills are designed to ignite their learning and allow them the means to maximize their potential not just as consumers of technology but as creators with technology.
Foundation ICT Lessons:
The Foundation series (P1 to P4) aims to equip students with access to
the various learning platforms within the MOE ICT ecosystem, such as Student
Learning Space, Student Icon; and also build basic competencies in the
use of collaborative tools, Data Collection tools, and Presentation and
Production skills.

For Primary 6
Coding for Fun - The Code For Fun (CFF) Enrichment Programme is a national-mandated
programme that is offered to Primary 6 students in TVPS. Through this 10-hour
standardised curriculum, students are exposed to coding and computational
thinking and their applications to daily lives. Students will undergo sessions
that allow them to understand basic programming concepts and develop logical
thinking and problem-solving skills. They are given opportunities to apply
their knowledge gained through an activity where they will individually
programme a dance using their Sphero robotic kits. Students are also introduced
to basic concepts of emerging technologies such as Artificial Intelligence
and cybersecurity concepts.
