Pusat PERMATA@Pintar Negara, also known as Malaysia National Gifted Centre, is located within the Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia. Every December, this centre organises the Junior School Enrichment Programme (JSEP) aiming to help students develop their potential and become critical thinkers who are creative and active in innovative activities. This programme also provides holistic learning experiences where students can explore academic activities beyond the school curriculum. It offers opportunities for students to build network with one another and participate in learning activities that challenge their cognitive capabilities. Students will be assisted with psychological supports throughout the 3-day programme. They will also get to experience fun learning enrichment STEM-based activities. There are ten (10) STEM enrichment courses offered to students aged 7 to 11 years old. They are allowed to choose one (1) course according to their age group and they will be guided by instructors and teaching assistants throughout the 3-day camp. Students will also be assigned residential assistants who will help them adjust to the camp routines. Importantly, the camp has a low teacher-to-student ratio (1:5). This enables teachers and teaching assistants to give more attention to each student. The academic activities involve lectures, small group discussions, lab work, students’ presentations, visits to labs and research institutes as well as talks by experts. Students will stay at the Pusat PERMATA@Pintar Negara campus from 8.00 am until 5.00 pm to take part in all activities. Special meals can be prepared (e.g. vegetarian food) for students upon request. For security reason, students are not encouraged to bring their own laptop. However, they are allowed to bring their mobile phone but with limited usage.
