More industry exposure, flexible curriculum for polytechnic and ITE students among proposals by review panel

These are some of the recommendations announced on Friday by the committee reviewing opportunities and pathways in applied education.

"With these recommendations, polytechnic and ITE students can look forward to a more fulfilling applied education journey and graduating with deeper industry-relevant skills and broader life skills, and be better primed for future opportunities," said Dr Maliki on Friday. The committee also made recommendations to expand opportunities for industry exposure, which is a “key feature” of applied education, said the ministry.Under ITE’s enhanced curricular structure, students will have two linked industry attachments, comprising a three-month stint in their second year and another in their third year for six months.

This means that students can take the same number of modules as others, but spread out over more semesters, up to five years. Fees are paid on a semester basis. There will be no change to that and the government subsidies that students receive, said the ministry. With students’ needs growing and becoming more complex as educational pathways are enhanced, the “ecosystem of support” also needs to be strengthened, said MOE.
