Title: | Reimagining mission schools and the construction of mission school histories | Authors: | Chong, Rei Rei-Ann | Keywords: | Humanities::History | Issue Date: | 2021 | Publisher: | Nanyang Technological University | Source: | Chong, R.

Mission schools go through processes of reimagination of their history and development narrative to achieve an alignment with the language in the state’s ideology. By reflecting state values in their own historical narrative story, mission schools are hence able to maintain and celebrate the Christian character of their identity and history, whilst still conforming to the state’s overall ideology | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10356/147715 | Schools: | School of Humanities | Fulltext Permission: | restricted | Fulltext Availability: | With Fulltext |
