Gan Siow Huang on screening of private tutors for children
The Government is reviewing how the screening framework for those who work with children can be strengthened and will provide an update when the review is completed. This will include freelance providers of services for children. Minister of State for Education Gan Siow Huang said the Home Affairs Minister had informed Parliament of this in April 2022. She was responding on Wednesday (Feb 7) to a question on whether her ministry was considering requiring individuals who provide private or in-home tuition to children, including religious education, to be registered and screened for suitability to work with children.
