You already know the 2024 Primary Science syllabus redefined what it means to teach Science - less memorisation, more meaning-making through thinking, experimenting and problem-solving.

If that makes perfect sense to you, and you're eager to shape a curriculum that finally aligns with how students learn best, this is your chance to do just that (without the admin overload and emotional toll)!

As our Primary Science Curriculum Designer, you can focus on pouring your energy into meaningful curriculum work again that inspires curiosity, mastery and confidence.

[About The Pique Lab]

At The Pique Lab, we believe that where curiosity blooms, knowledge flourishes.⁠⁠

Our tagline "Curious Inside. Limitless Outside." embodies our mission to nurture every child's curiosity & journey with him/her on that path of discovery and wonder.

Our Math & Science lessons are meticulously crafted based on pedagogical research, data-driven methodologies & have one overarching goal: to make learning fun, shorten learning curves & help students develop a genuine appreciation for Math & Science.

Over the past decade, we've grown from a pair of co-founders to a diverse team of over 100 team members across 10 departments. Our proprietary learning methodology & examination-centric materials have helped more than 20,000 students ace their examinations.

Our headquarters is in Singapore, with remote teams in China, India, Malaysia & the Philippines. We take pride in our open, fast-paced & flat organisational structure where every team member is valued for their skills & competencies, not just their job titles.

[Your Role As Our Primary Science Curriculum Designer]

As our Primary Science Curriculum Designer, you'll take the lead in refining our Primary Science curriculum and lesson materials that are aligned with MOE learning outcomes and our approach to learning.

With your keen insights into the current MOE education approaches and syllabus changes, you will be involved in:

• Designing topical coloured notes that inspire fun and mastery in Science concepts and MCQ/OEQ answering techniques.
• Designing targeted worksheet practices to reinforce conceptual understanding and answering techniques: At The Pique Lab, we build exam confidence in our students from Day 1 by using a mix of original questions and thoughtfully selected past-year exam questions.
• Designing in-class hands-on learning activities that deepen understanding and prepare students for their weighted assessments.
• Staying up to date with curriculum shifts, pedagogical trends and evolving exam formats across schools and the PSLE.
• Collaborating closely with our Primary Science Teaching Team to iterate the curriculum based on classroom insights and student performance, while sharing best practices on learning and teaching.
