For example, the materials will address Singapore’s response to the Oct 7 Hamas attack. While the country recognised Israel's right to self-defence, Others claimed that teachers were not allowed to give further input beyond what was prescribed to them. Mr Chan said on Monday that schools have received feedback from parents and other stakeholders. Some thought the issue was too difficult for Primary 5 and 6 students to understand, and others questioned why some slides focused more on recent events in the long history of the conflict.“But will this be better for our students and society in the long term? If we agree on the intent of CCE, then we must keep striving to improve our delivery,” said the Education Minister.
