Leveraging its strength as a school of 15-year continuous schooling, Xiamen Yingcai School has developed an integrated Mathematics & Technology curriculum spanning from kindergarten to senior high school. Centered on mathematical thinking and engineering literacy, the curriculum follows a three-tier progressive framework: Foundation Building → Interest Development → Specialized Advancement. It integrates mathematics and technology education seamlessly, aiming to cultivate future talents with innovative awareness, practical capabilities and higher-order thinking.
Information technology and engineering are incorporated into core compulsory courses to systematically foster technological literacy among all students.
Information Technology: Offered from primary to senior high school.
Grades 1–2 (Primary): 1 period per week
Grades 3–6 (Primary): 2 periods per week
Grades 1–2 (Junior High): 1 period per week
Grades 1–2 (Senior High): 1 period per week
Technology & Engineering: Available for Grades 1–2 (Senior High), 1 period per week. It focuses on cultivating engineering thinking and hands-on skills.
Artificial Intelligence & Engineering Practice
This section consists of four school-based course clusters: Programming, Maker Education, Drones and Robotics. Adopting project-based and problem-oriented learning, it engages students in exploring scientific principles in real-life scenarios, sparks their interest in technology, and builds their teamwork and engineering implementation skills.
Scientific Experiment & Inquiry
Supported by on-campus laboratories for Physics, Chemistry and Biology, full-time lab instructors organize diverse club activities and experimental projects. Students learn to observe phenomena, verify hypotheses and analyze data through hands-on practice, developing scientific inquiry competence and experimental skills.
The third-tier courses are tailored for students with innovative potential. Featuring project-based and interdisciplinary learning, they focus on research in intelligent manufacturing, life sciences, smart hardware, ecological environment, digital art and digital humanities. These courses are aligned with high-profile competitions including the National Youth Science and Technology Innovation Competition and the World Robot Contest, to comprehensively enhance students’ academic research ability and overall innovation capacity.
The school also develops integrated mathematics courses to nurture higher-order thinking and identify top innovative talents at an early stage. With structured and tiered progressive arrangements, the courses help students establish rigorous mathematical thinking and lay a solid foundation for further studies in science and technology. The in-depth integration of mathematics and technology has become a key approach for the school to nurture innovative talents.
Over the past three years, students have won 176 national awards and 306 provincial & municipal awards in competitions on the Ministry of Education’s approved list, such as the National Olympiad in Informatics and Maker Competitions.
86 national awards in the World Robot Contest, including 35 National First Prizes.
In the 2025 National Youth Drone Competition: 1 Gold, 3 Silver and 11 Bronze medals.
More than ten students won Gold, Silver and Bronze medals at international invention exhibitions.
