Singapore’s Gifted Education Programme (GEP) in primary schools is set to be overhauled to become more inclusive. This was announced during Lawrence Wong’s maiden National Day Rally speech. The school-based programmes for higher-ability learners, which now cater to 7 per cent of each cohort, will expand to take in 10 per cent, or 3,000 students a year.  There’ll also be after-school supplementary modules aimed at further developing students in their areas of strength and interest, that are not intended to replace regular curriculum. These are part of a series of changes to the 40-year-old GEP. On this episode of Morning Shot, Associate Professor Jason Tan from the National Institute of Education’s Policy, Curriculum and Leadership Department shares his insights on the latest developments.   Presented by: Audrey Siek Produced & Edited by: Yeo Kai Ting (ykaiting@sph.com.sg) Photo credits: ST File
