School–Based Gifted Education

The NYGH School-Based Gifted Education (SBGE) aims to provide instruction and enrichment that appropriately challenge and support these students. We aim to develop intellectual rigour, humanity and creativity in the youths and prepare them for responsible leadership and service to country and society.

The NYGH SBGE curriculum and out-of-class activities are differentiated in terms of content, process, product and learning environment, catering to the students’ learning needs and style. There are also differentiated tasks and product expectations.

The NYGH SBGE places great emphasis on self-awareness, social awareness and involvement in the community. Affective Education is taught not only during Character and Citizenship Education (CCE) and well-being lessons but infused in all the enriched subjects as well. In addition to CCE, the differentiated goals of Affective Education in the SBGE take into account the characteristics of the gifted.

To further develop thinking skills and creativity, the school also offers a range of programmes such as research, customised enrichment talks and mentorship for our students.
