Overview

The National Advisory Council, COMPASS (COMmunity and PArents in Support of Schools) was established in December 1998 to advise the Ministry of Education on ways in which school-home-community collaboration could be strengthened and promoted. Presently in its 14th Council, COMPASS is chaired by Ms Gan Siow Huang, Minister of State, Ministry of Education and Ministry of Manpower. COMPASS comprises members from the various stakeholders representing parents, self-help groups, industry, media and early childhood educators.

Role of COMPASS

COMPASS aims to develop a common understanding among students, parents, schools and the community about the role that each group should play in a concerted effort to achieve the desired outcomes of education. The Council meets quarterly for discussions on policies and programmes.

The role of COMPASS is:

• Promote and develop strong school-home-community partnerships, through engagement with parents, community, and industry on education issues;
• Share ground feedback and MOE’s messages with parents, community, and industry; and
• Undertake initiatives in preparing students for the future and learning for life.
