Academics Programmes
At the Primary level (Classes I to V), our curriculum is geared towards equipping the children with basic knowledge, skills and attitudes in conformity with the recommendations of the National Curriculum Framework (NCF). The core academic subjects, namely, two languages (Hindi and English), Mathematics, and Environmental Studies (combination of science and social studies) are taught through modern, child-centred methodologies with intensive usage of computer-aided learning.
At the Middle level (Classes VI to VIII) too, we adopt innovative methodologies to teach the 5 core subjects, namely, Hindi, English, Mathematics, Science and Social Sciences. Sanskrit, French and Urdu are also taught as the third languages at this stage. We rely a great deal on ICT (Information and Communication Technology) to make teaching-learning at this stage a process based on investigative, exploratory and analytical techniques. As holders of the British Council's International Dimension in Schools Award, we give challenging assignments to students instead of the routine homework to inculcate in them the skills to work in groups and to reach out to the sources of learning with a keen and inquisitive mind and to present their findings in a cohesive, rational and systematic way, using ICT-facilitated tools such as multimedia and Microsoft Office.
At the Secondary (Classes IX and X) and the Senior Secondary (Classes XI and XII) levels, the academic programmes are determined by the CBSE and we implement them as per the norms laid down. For effective teaching-learning, we use ICT tools extensively at these stages too. Problem solving, higher order thinking and acquisition of life skills are given top priority at this stage of school education.
As institutional member of the British Council's International Dimension in Schools Programme and as global member school of the Round Square worldwide network of innovative schools, we involve our students in learning the curriculum of the NCERT and the CBSE through project method and in collaboration with other member schools spread all over the world.
