Co Curricular Activities

As part of character development, CCA is a key student development experience. CCA is a core component of our holistic curriculum where students discover their interests and talents, while learning important life skills. At the secondary level, CCA is compulsory; each student will participate in at least one school-based CCA.
Kent Ridge offers 19 CCAs and each CCA offers engaging programmes to build students’ character and develop their leadership competencies.

LEAPS 2.0 Framework
Our CCA programmes are guided by the LEAPS 2.0 framework to encourage and recognise students’ holistic development in life skills, competencies and values. Students will be recognised with levels of attainment in Participation, Achievement, Leadership and Service domains.
