LEARNING PROGRESS IN THE HOLISTIC DEVELOPMENT PROFILE (HDP)

  • From 2019, schools will use subject-specific Learning

Objectives (LOs) and qualitative descriptors to report P1 & P2 students’ learning progress for all subjects in the HDP.

  • Subject-specific Learning Objectives (LOs) reflects the

syllabus outcomes for P1 and P2 respectively

  • The Learning Objectives (LOs) are meant as feedback to

students and parents for learning.
