Academics

Learning with understanding

We want students to be able to think about a question, explain an idea and apply what they have learnt — not simply remember an answer.

Curriculum

A curriculum built around NEP 2020

Our curriculum complies with the National Education Policy 2020 and is taught in English from Nursery to Class X. The policy asks schools to move away from rote learning and examination drill, towards understanding, application, and the all-round development of the child. That is the standard we hold ourselves to, and it changes three things in practice: what we teach, how we teach it, and how we judge whether a child has actually learnt.

We follow the policy's 5+3+3+4 structure, so a child's stage — not just their class number — decides how they are taught. The early years are built on play and activity; the middle years on understanding concepts and using them; the secondary years on applying that understanding to harder problems.

Foundational stage

Learning through play

Nursery to Class II is treated as one continuous foundational stage. Children learn through activity, story, song, movement and handling real objects rather than by sitting still and copying. Aksharabhyasam marks the beginning of a child's writing journey.

Literacy & numeracy

The non-negotiables, early

NEP 2020 puts foundational literacy and numeracy above everything else in the early years. Before a child moves on, we want them reading with meaning and secure in basic number work — because almost every later difficulty traces back to a gap here.

Competency

Understanding over memorising

Lessons are built around competencies rather than chapters to be recited. A child who can explain an idea in their own words, apply it to an unfamiliar question and say why an answer is wrong has learnt it; one who can only reproduce it has not.

Experiential

Learning by doing

Science exhibitions, working models, projects and classroom experiments are part of the curriculum, not additions to it. Building something and then having to explain it to a visitor is where understanding is tested most honestly.

Language

English, built step by step

English is developed progressively through the ELGA programme, with attention to speaking and not only writing. In line with the policy, a child's own language is respected in the classroom and used to explain where it genuinely helps understanding.

Assessment

Regular, and shared early

Assessment is continuous rather than saved for one examination — regular practice and tests that show a teacher where each child stands. When a child needs more help, the parents are told early, while there is still time to act.

A holistic approach

NEP 2020 treats a child's education as more than their marks, and so do we. Sport on more than two acres of open ground, drawing, elocution, cultural performance, Scouts and Guides, science exhibitions and community work are all part of the school programme and the timetable — not rewards for the children who finish their syllabus early.

Alongside this, students receive academic support suited to their stage: handwriting and regular practice in the primary classes, Abacus and Olympiad preparation for Classes I–V, and Vedic Maths with IIT and NEET Foundation coaching for Classes VI–X. The school also conducts seminars and workshops with subject experts.

The aim is the one the policy sets out: a child who leaves Class X able to think for themselves, express themselves clearly, work with others, and carry a set of values worth having.

Stage by stage

How a child moves through the school

Nursery – UKG

Early years

Children move from letters to words and simple sentences, and from numbers to tables and simple addition and subtraction — through songs, classroom activities and learning to get along with others. Aksharabhyasam is conducted for children beginning their writing journey.

Classes I – V

Foundations

The focus is on strong foundations in reading, writing, mathematics and the other core subjects. Abacus classes and preparation for Olympiad examinations are part of the school programme.

Classes VI – X

Secondary stage

Students work through the prescribed syllabus while receiving Vedic Maths and IIT and NEET Foundation support alongside regular studies — early exposure to faster calculation, higher-level problem solving and competitive examination patterns.

English language development

Comfortable in English, step by step

As an English-medium school serving children from the local community, we give real importance to helping students become comfortable using English — speaking it, not only writing it in an examination.

The school uses the ELGA programme to develop language skills progressively through the classes.

Digital learning

Screens that support the teacher

Every class from Nursery to Class X uses digital teaching resources through the LEAD system. These resources are used to support structured classroom teaching — a concept is shown, discussed, and then explained back by the students in their own words.

Academic support

When a child needs more help

Students receive regular practice and assessments so that teachers can see how each child is progressing. When a child needs additional support, the school follows its established process to help that child improve — and the parents are told early.

Alongside the syllabus, students receive support in handwriting, tests, Abacus, Vedic Maths, Olympiad preparation and Foundation courses according to their class. The school also conducts seminars and workshops with subject experts.
