In the spirit of constantly upgrading and improving themselves, the senior leaders of the school identify strategic areas for improvement and embark on short as well as long term courses, attachments and degree programmes. For example, the Principal models the way by pursuing a PhD course part-time, while the Deputy Principals take turns in pursuing attachments at MOE or taking up full-time or parttime PhD and Masters courses. The Deans and Directors also attend workshops, courses and conferences locally and overseas, with each also taking turns to pursue Professional Development Leave (PDL) to attain Masters degrees or do research.
