Recognising Student-Athletes from Special Education Schools Representing Singapore at Sporting Events

Mr Foo Cexiang asked the Minister for Education whether the Ministry will consider recognising and supporting student-athletes from special education schools who represent Singapore at sporting events, such as with the Singapore Schools Sports Council (SSSC) Colours Awards or by creating a framework equivalent to the SSSC Colours Awards.

Mr Desmond Lee: The Ministry of Education and the Singapore Schools Sports Council (SSSC) are reviewing the SSSC Colours Award Framework and will consider how student-athletes from Government and community-funded special education schools who represent Singapore at key sports events can be recognised.
