It also provides more in-depth professional training to students with potential, thereby promoting comprehensive personal growth and development. In terms of "STEAM FOR ALL", in order to increase students' understanding of STEAM, the school allows students to experience innovative technologies that keep pace with the times through interdisciplinary project studies, activities, etc. For example, mathematics, science, and computer subjects design a series of interdisciplinary classroom activities to teach students to comprehensively apply knowledge from different subjects. In addition to school-based curriculum experience, the school also has well-equipped laboratories, maker centers, etc., where students can experience simulated driving, 3D printing, assembly machinery, etc. during lunch and after-school time, creating a strong innovation and technology learning atmosphere.
