‘It takes the whole village to raise a child.’ (African proverb)
Comprehensive Life Planning Education can never be offered at, or by the school alone. Different parties must be enlisted and brought together to enrich students’ exposure and experience. With strong networking with alumni, parents, business sector, universities and NGOs, activities like admissions talks, consultation sessions, taster lectures, company visits, job shadowing and career talk are held to enable students to find their aspiration and build a positive work ethic. Contributions made by various stakeholders have played an indispensable role in enriching the Life Planning Education at UCCKE and empowering our students to realize their academic and career aspiration.
