Personalised Digital Learning Programme (PDLP)

Access comprehensive resources for the Personal Digital Learning Programme (PDLP) at FMS(S). Find information on iPad compatibility, acceptable use policies, 2026 parent engagement slides, and technical support for student devices.

Last updated 9 June 2026

The NDLP was launched at MOE’s Committee of Supply Debate in March 2020 to help students strengthen their digital literacy. One of the components of the NDLP is the introduction of the Personalised Digital Learning Programme (“PDLP”) for all secondary school students, whereby every secondary school student will own a school-prescribed Personal Learning Device (PLD).

The PLD will be used together with the national e-learning platform – the Singapore Student Learning Space (“SLS”) – as well as other educational technology to personalise and enhance students’ learning. This will also enable students to acquire digital skills and apply these skills as they navigate an increasingly digitalised world.

... we will ensure that the PLD is an enabler for learning... our curriculum in schools will continue to provide a wide range of learning experiences, including a balanced proportion of technology-enhanced learning activities.
— Minister of Education, Lawrence Wong, December 2020
