This year, I joined the Talentum workshops at school and I’ve really enjoyed them. We do exciting science experiments -some a bit risky - but we always follow safety rules. My favourite experiment was about how minerals form crystals. Every time there’s a workshop, I feel happy and excited because I know I’ll have fun and learn something new. These sessions have confirmed that I love Physics!

FAQs

Our Gifted and Talented Program is a specialised educational track designed to meet the needs of students with exceptional intellectual potential. In collaboration with Talentum, we have reimagined our curriculum to create an inclusive, challenging and enriching environment. Students benefit from innovative tools and strategies that foster their talents and support holistic development.

We conduct early and rigorous screening for all students using standardised detection tests. This process ensures we identify gifted learners precisely and can intervene immediately to maximise their growth from the outset.

Once a student is identified as gifted and talented, we administer a preferences assessment and hold individual interviews. Based on these insights, we design a bespoke learning plan that may include:

  • Participation in maker projects
  • Activities in our on-campus FabLab
  • Specialised workshops led by expert facilitators

Each term, gifted and talented students collaborate with Talentum on an innovative, cross-disciplinary project. These projects encourage creativity, critical thinking and teamwork by exploring diverse fields of knowledge in a practical, hands-on manner.
