These are the teaching subjects for MGS's Sophia Blackmore class, or the gifted class in MGS... I was quite amazed, in that if u don't know better, you might even think that they are being taught new subjects. Let me enlighten you.
-Philosophy: Fair enough, we didn't have to do that
-Life Skills: Ah, this is somewhat special. It is actually Home Economics and Computer Studies. I wished there was Design and Technology though. Would have been quite cool to learn a bit of DnT, see what it actually is.
-Aesthetics: Ah, another cheem name for something we've all learnt. This actually just means Visual Art, Music and Dance.
-Individualised Study Options: (Quoted from the MGS website) It aims to develop pupils in research and inquiry skills, and oral and presentation skills. It also allows pupils to pursue a topic of their own interest, and to acquire new knowledge through Problem-Based Learning.
Why must they make something simple sound so cheem????
