Academics
The school adheres to the curriculum prescribed by NCERT, but at the same time adapts it to the needs of students, keeping in mind the diversity of individual talent and aptitude. It is reviewed and revisited regularly to incorporate changes and make improvements.
Curriculum And Methodology
Subjects taught in classes Nursery to P3 are English, Hindi, Mathematics and Environmental Science. A blend of Montessori and Playway is used in Nursery and KG and the presence of two teachers in each pre-primary class room ensures joyful, hands-on and effective learning.
Students of classes P4 and P5 study English, Hindi, Mathematics, Social Studies and Science. Besides these, they learn the basics of one foreign language, their preferred choice among the three offered- German, Spanish and French.
Text book lessons are supplemented by practice work sheets, project work, audio-visual aid and hands-on experience through excursions, national and international trips and student exchange programmes. Monthly assignments are given to students, in which work target for all subjects is stated. The assignment system ensures that parents and students are completely in sync with the academic plan designed for them. The aim is to strengthen the innate capacities of students so that they feel confident and enjoy their days at school.
