How it works

What makes the national programme today

Deep learning

Lessons aim for real understanding, not memorising: students connect ideas across subjects and apply them in new situations, so learning is meaningful, mindful and joyful.

Co-curricular projects

Collaborative, cross-subject projects and character activities that take learning beyond the classroom.

Coding & Artificial Intelligence

A new national elective from Grade 7 (SMP) and Grade 10 (SMA), introduced gradually from 2025/2026.
