STEM Education

STEM education is gaining attention all over the world.
As a consolidation of knowledge and skills learnt in
lessons, students are provided with chances to apply
what they have learnt to create products in tackling real-
world problems.
IMSC is offering a wide array of programmes to expose
students to STEM:
˙to all students through Science, Mathematics and
Technology Education curriculum
˙to talented students through ECA clubs, such as STEM
Club, MakeBlock X Club and Print-I-Y Club
˙to elite students through overseas and territory-wide
activities and competitions, such as Oxcam STEM
and Entrepreneurship Tour, Girls Go Tech (GGT) and Sarah Sze, Apple Ng and Jenny Tjer (all from 5C)
InnoSTEMer Camp won the Gold Award in the InnoSTEMer Camp 2018.
