DSA STEM Pathway
For students who want to pursue a future in STEM, our DSA STEM Pathway offers a comprehensive curriculum that prepares them for Singapore's competitive DSA admissions.
Curriculum Overview
Our structured four-tiered STEM pathway guides primary students from foundational logic and block coding to advanced tournament-ready tracks in AI or competitive robotics, empowering them to independently build a comprehensive portfolio for the DSA-Secondary admission process.
How it works:
- Your child will start at the level that matches their skill and age.
- The courses are divided into quarterly levels, each building on the last, with the aim of preparing students for competitions.
- From ages 6 to 10, students will build a strong foundation in computational thinking, block coding, and physical computing
- From ages 10 to 12, students will specialize in either coding or competitive robotics tracks
- In the coding track, students will progress from block coding to Python and AI, developing skills in algorithms, application development and game development
- In the robotics track, students will progress from fixed design robots to assembling robotic parts for specific needs, as well as integrating machine learning with robots
