By 2020, the country plans to phase out teaching individual subjects such as maths, chemistry and physics, and instead teach students by 'topics' or broad phenomena, so that there's no more question about "what's the point of learning this?"
Sounds like a way to make single-subject acceleration in math and other subjects impossible, and also to make ability grouping by subject impossible.
