The school-based Multiple Intelligences Curriculum is rich and varied, which includes different kinds of music, physical education, art, language, and critical thinking in order to discover and develop students’ multiple talents through participation and involvement. Students are encouraged to engage in various types of competitions, performances, and services so that they become aware of the changing society while building up their self-esteem and self-assurance.
To avoid an emphasis on traditional academic subjects or language intelligences, the school has introduced a curriculum that incorporates the training of multiple intelligences to the formal curriculum. The Multiple Intelligences curriculum concentrates on body kinesthetics, music rhythms & spatial intelligences. It breaks the boundary between formal and informal education.
