Senior Minister Lee Hsien Loong announced a support network for the parents of preschoolers who require early intervention, allowing them to support one another and share experiences.
He also launched a Teck Ghee Preschool Bursary Award for children with special needs who may require additional mentoring, tutoring or enrichment, and whose parents may lack the resources or means to provide it.
He said: “The bursary will be able to give them some help, so that they can get the support they need and to develop to their maximum potential.”
SM Lee was speaking at an event held at the Institute of Technical Education College Central for the newly formed Teck Ghee Preschool Network, which brings together seven operators and 13 preschool centres in Teck Ghee.
