Partnership Opportunities

The Speak Good English Movement is always on the lookout for new and exciting programmes to help Singaporeans speak well. We have many partner organisations that help develop and organise free programmes/events to help people of various ages and needs improve their English. Please contact us and let us know how we can partner you.

"English As It Is Broken" (The Sunday Times)

Partners: Ministry of Education (MOE) & Singapore Press Holdings (SPH)

MOE and SPH jointly introduced a new weekly column in the Gen Y page of The Sunday Times in 2006 to address readers’ queries on the usage of English.

Sunday Times editors worked closely with a panel of English language experts from MOE to produce this column every week starting from 30 July. Examples are drawn from pop culture with a conversational tone.

In a bid to improve access to literacy, 50,000 copies of Sunday Times were also delivered to homes of low income, non-newspaper subscribing families.
