Gifted Education Programme (GEP)

Anglo-Chinese School (Primary) has been one of the primary schools that offer the Gifted Education Programme (GEP) since 1985. The GEP in ACS(P) is anchored on the school’s twin pillars of intellectual development (Cognitive Domain) and character building (Affective and Social Domains). Students’ intellectual potential is developed in a nurturing environment through a curriculum that is built on the regular curriculum but enriched in depth and breadth.

The GEP curriculum is differentiated in terms of content, process, product and learning environment. It provides opportunities for content mastery, creativity, critical thinking and character-building through Character and Citizenship Education, English Language, Mathematics, Mother Tongue Language, Science and Social Studies.

GEP Goals and Values

To develop intellectual depth and higher-level thinking To nurture productive creativity To develop attitudes for self-directed lifelong learning	To enhance the child’s aspirations for individual excellence and fulfilment To develop a strong social conscience and commitment to serve society and nation To develop moral values and qualities for responsible leadership

GEP Values are based on R³ICH
