Strong leadership skills are indispensable to our children as they progress in life. Our LLP also brings JPS students through a curriculum which revolves around them learning key leadership traits, both theoretically in the classroom and hands-on as they take on roles and responsibilities throughout their JPS years.

Here, learning begins as early as in the Lower Primary years as students go through a 20-hour lesson series and subsequently work on their Junior Leadership Challenge.

Students further internalize these traits they take on leadership roles within the class and the school, and when they lead their class and schoolmates in programmes such as Make a Change @ JPS .
