The Teachers Effectiveness for Language Learning, TELL Project is designed to offer support and facilitate language teachers’ professional growth. The TELL Project for Violence Prevention at the primary school was aimed to educate and empower the youth with the skills and knowledge to fight against violence efficiently. It was held in collaboration with the Police Relations Branch Officer. The Project fosters a safe and well-supportive environment for the students to undertake their development in a secure and free environment. Through this Project, the Ministry envisioned building communities and making every individual realise their potential and fight against or free themselves from any violence in their home, communities and schools. During the workshops, the individuals are invited to engage, advocate and participate actively in efforts to eliminate violence.
