The Xinmin Learning Experience

Our Learning Experience Framework

• At the heart of the framework is our school vision, guiding all that we work towards in Xinmin – Leading Hearts, Leading Minds. The R³ represents our school values of Respect, Responsibility, and Resilience, which form the core of one’s character.

• The second ring describes our approach in designing learning experiences for our students, considering: 

  1. Goals & Content, what students should understand and be able to do;

  2. Pedagogy, how teachers bring about learning; and

  3. Assessment, how students gather information about their progress and act on feedback to move learning forward. 

• The third ring describes the five components of our total curriculum, i.e. all the learning experiences Xinmin offers to provide a well-rounded and future-ready education for our students:

  1. Level Themes & Cohort Curriculum, providing shared and progressive learning experiences for each cohort;

  2. Academic Subjects, developing knowledge, skills, and dispositions across various disciplines;

  3. Co-Curricular Activities, developing joy of learning, student agency, character, and emerging 21^st Century Competencies in the CCA context;

  4. Talent Development, pulling together all the learning experiences and opportunities through a coherent, school-wide approach; and

  5. Signature Programmes, leveraging Xinmin’s resources as a forward-looking school with MOE autonomous status.

• The fourth ring describes the Desired Xinmin Outcomes (DXOs), articulating the qualities developed in Xinmin graduates: curious learners, compassionate contributors, and confident leaders.
