Update on Positive Use Guide on Technology and Social Media and Plans for Implementation

37 Ms Lee Hui Ying asked the Minister for Education (a) whether an update can be provided on the release of the Positive Use Guide on Technology and Social Media developed jointly with the Ministry of Digital Development and Information and the Ministry of Social and Family Development; and (b) what is the targeted reach in terms of students to be introduced to the guide.

Mr Desmond Lee: The Positive Use Guide on Technology and Social Media will be made available on the Digital for Life website in the fourth quarter of 2025 as a resource for parents and youth.

The Ministry of Education will introduce relevant portions of the Guide to our primary, secondary and pre-university students as part of their Cyber Wellness lessons. Pertinent guidance from the Guide will also be shared with parents and families through platforms such as Parents Gateway, Families for Life and community touchpoints.
