The Lorentz Casimir Lyceum hasdeveloped a teaching program for highly intelligent and gifted students in the lower grades that focuses on autonomy, extra challenge and creative thinking; BrainSport Junior.
Students engage in the Big History learning line. Here they investigate the history of the universe and humanity from the Big Bang to the present. This includes all kinds of subjects that are not part of the standard curriculum such as astronomy, philosophy, cultural studies and psychology. BrainSport Junior classes take place during regular classes. The selected students therefore miss one or two regular classes each week. Guest lessons and field trips are also organized outside of school.
The program is directed by our giftedness coordinator Ms. Sonja van 't Land: land.s@lcl.nl. Please contact her with any questions.
