GATE Science Programme® 7-11 years old
Programme Scope:
- Core Content – 60% – The core module covers key topics in an accelerated manner
- Enrichment Content – 40% – In our enrichment module, we integrate competition science module for high ability Learners. Enrichment module hones conceptual learning, processing skills and critical learning ability development
Our GATE Science programme
We believe in fostering a passion for Science through hands-on experiments (i.e. gears, circuits, microscope, magnet, light reflection set, chain reaction set, gravity maze) in the early years. This will lead to a strong foundation in Science and will guide the student to further branches of Science, be it biology, chemistry or physics.
The GATE Science Programme will provide high ability learners the necessary skills to be in the top percentile in the area of Science. This programme is designed for high ability children who wish to take on a challenging Science curriculum to hone their knowledge of Science in areas such as conceptual learning, processing skills and the development of critical thinking ability.
With the Science Programme, our students will be equipped with the expertise to achieve success in prestigious Science competitions, such as the Tan Kah Kee Young Inventors’ Award and the Singapore Primary Science Olympiad.
Overview of the Syllabus topics covered:
Specially designed for:
High ability learners who need an enriched science curriculum beyond school syllabus.
It prepares students for:
- Challenging questions in school exams
- Science competitions (Olympiad Science, Tan Kah Kee Young Inventors’ Award)
- Future research work in science
GATE Elite Science Programme® starting age 7 years old
Our GATE Elite Science programme aims to help students master essential analytical and inference skills for them to excel in school science exams; at the same time, high ability students can explore topics beyond school syllabus to broaden their knowledge and develop experimental techniques through our specially designed activity-based projects.
- Accelerated
- Inspiring
- Early exposure to Olympiad Science and DSA Science
Programme Focus:
- Critical thinking skill required for future science research
- Science knowledge beyond textbooks, ready for Olympiad science and DSA Science
Accelerated School Science Core Module: School topics, notes with practice questions. E.g. Biology (living and non-living things), Mycology (Fungi and microorganism), Cell biology (Cell structure), Phytology (flowering and non-flowering plants), Materials Science and Digestive system etc.
Enrichment Module: Beyond school science syllabus, exposure to advanced level Science concepts (physics, biology, chemistry) and cutting-edge Technology. Inspire students to explore further in the field they are interested.
Hands-on activities Module: e.g. “I am a gastroenterologist”, “Let it Float”, “DIY Lantern”, “My botany maze”, “Little Forensic Scientist”, “My mycology Lab”, “can you spot it?”
