Chief Minister Chow Kon Yeow said the pilot programme was a collaboration between Bentley Education and Forward School, which designed the programme curriculum with the support of Penang STEM.
“This will enhance their technical abilities as well as critical thinking, problem-solving and teamwork skills, which are crucial for success in any professional setting,” said Chow. “This sponsorship has not only provided financial aid but has also served as a source of motivation for students to pursue their dreams.
Naraindrran said students from the selected schools would need to take an aptitude test before they could participate in the programme.
