Academic Ethos
Whoever teaches learns in the act of teaching, and whoever learns teaches in the act of learning
The theoretical framework of the school is based upon an experiential, constructivist approach in which the learners are looked upon as architects of their own learning experience. Through our project-based approach, learning is guided not by subjects but by challenges and the need to overcome them. Through an understanding and application of these educational frameworks, the school offers liberal education to its students.
Pedagogy
Teaching Methodology
The teaching methodology includes tools such as the Smart board, Laptops, Montessori material, theatre, multimedia, sports, technology etc to engage the learners with different learning styles and abilities.
The body and the senses are an important tool and the classroom pedagogy incorporates this dimension for a holistic learning.
Music, painting, dance, games are used as an approach to learning the content, art is not divorced from academics but an integral vector to learn it.
