Mother Tongue Language

Vision

Every Student a Confident and Passionate Learner of Mother Tongue Languages and Cultures.

Chung Cheng High School (Yishun) has remained steadfast over the years in the implementation of Mother Tongue Languages Programmes.

The school was officially declared as the N2 Cluster Centre of Excellence for Chinese Language (COE CL) in 2008 by Ms Grace Fu, then Senior Minister of State for Ministry of National Development and Ministry of Education. Since then, the school has played an active role in promoting the teaching and learning of Chinese Language (CL), serving the Cluster’s CL teachers by facilitating professional development training through collaboration with agencies such as the Singapore Centre for Chinese Language (SCCL) and Singapore Examinations and Assessment Board (SEAB).

After our relocation to Yishun in 2005, CCHY reaffirmed her commitment to serving the needs of the community by offering the Malay Language (ML). The dedicated and passionate teachers of the ML unit put in their best to nurture the students and achieve encouraging results in the National Examinations, despite a comparatively smaller cohort of students.

Working hand-in-hand, the CL and ML units deliver comprehensive MTL programmes that are fully in-line with MOE’s stand of Bilingualism as a cornerstone of Singapore’s education system.

Instructional Programme

The MTL Department offers the following Instructional Programmes:

  • Normal (Technical)/G1: Basic Chinese Language N(T)/G1, Basic Malay Language N(T)/G1
  • Normal (Academic)/G2: Chinese Language N(A)/G2, Malay Language N(A)/G2
  • Express/G3: Chinese Language, Higher Chinese Language, Malay Language
  • Students who offer Tamil Language will attend lessons in other schools within the vicinity that have been designated as Tamil Language Centres.

Cross-Cultural Programme

The MTL Department also runs the Cross Culture Programme as part of the school’s effort to help students develop a deeper understanding of their own culture and the cultures of other ethnic groups. Students whose MTL is Chinese attends lessons in Chinese, while students who offer other MTLs attend the lessons in English.

Instructional Programme

Our Malay Language Unit was established in 2003 under the purview of the Mother Tongue Department. It was a historical moment in our rich school history as for the first time, our doors are opened to students offering the Malay Language as their 2nd Language. Since then, our students have achieved outstanding performances in the GCE O and N Level Examinations with 100% passes and distinction rates beyond the National average. The unit was also established to deepen and enhance understanding and interest towards Malay Language and Culture in our students. Apart from academic excellence, our Malay Language program also aims to inculcate positive values and a holistic personal development.

To achieve our vision, our team of dedicated teachers employs both Assessment for Learning (AFL) and Assessment of Learning (AoL) to ensure close monitoring of students’ learning and progress. The tasks include;

  1. Projects for research and independent learning
  2. Self-Assessment
  3. Peer Assessment
  4. Performance-based Assessment
  5. Weighted Assessment (Formative)
  6. Year-end Assessment (Summative)
