Understanding Experimental Education: If You Could Dream, What Would Education in the Future Look Like? Principal Liu Minggang of the NGU Enji You Experimental Education Institution introduced students to the founding philosophy and distinctive curriculum of the NGU Enji You Experimental Education Institution (which includes both elementary and middle schools). Core Philosophy and Distinctive Features • Educational Core: Centered on “Social-Emotional Learning (SEL),” a mindset of well-being, and neuroscience, and integrated with the OECD’s 2030 Transformative Competencies, the program helps children transition from resisting school to enjoying learning. • Teaching Methods: The school employs small class sizes and mixed-age instruction (divided into lower, middle, and upper elementary grades, as well as the junior high school level), with homeroom teachers dedicated exclusively to student care rather than teaching other subjects. • Distinctive Curriculum: A custom-designed curriculum aligned with the 108 Curriculum Guidelines, including STHEM (Science, Technology, Humanities, Engineering, and Mathematics), Expressive Arts, Life Exploration, Logical Thinking, Literature, History, and Philosophy, Woodworking, and Food and Agriculture. • Campus Environment: Emphasis on a bullying-free environment, the joy of learning, and parent-teacher collaboration.
