Abstract
Singapore Ministry of Education implemented the ICT Mentor Programme in 2010. This is a professional development programme for a selected group of in-service teachers tasked to develop and cascade effective ICT practices in schools. A TPACK survey was employed in this study to assess the effectiveness of the programme. The results obtained through study of participants from an earlier phase point to possible need for enhancement of the programme. The programme was redesigned. Participants who attended the redesigned programme perceived to have experienced substantial growth in Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK). This is an indication that the redesigning of the programme has yielded its intended results.
