Equip all students - not just in secondary school but primary too - with personal learning devices to nurture future-ready digital learners. Redesign educational assessment models to balance responsible use of AI and original thought. These suggestions were made by MP Darryl David in parliament on Thursday (Sep 25), where he said Singapore must ensure that its educational system continues to produce talent that is sought after for the relevance of its skills and how it adds value to the work it does.

He noted that mental and emotional issues typically emerge in the teenage years.
