We believe knowledge and learning are evolutionary phenomenon. The symbols structured in proper way define letters, each letter structured correctly gives a word, then words aligned properly give meaningful sentences and then these sentences create wonder. In our school, the teachers use variety of pedagogy techniques especially association and application that are capable of creating curiosity and also the management that seeks to identify and supply resources required to help students to start their quest to the advanced level. This also requires care and patience and we believe our teachers live up to these challenges every day.
The curriculum, from primary till grade seven in our school, is combined product of what we call LOCAL-SYSTEM- that helps students associate their learning with available local resources and the other we call GLOBAL-SYSTEM- that has been tested as the most effective education system by Organization for Co-operation and Economic Development (OCED)
Currently, the school is taking expertise from the Trainers and Experts to enhance Local Learning Approach, while Journals, Research Papers and Expertise from the United Kingdom, Finland, South Korea and India to enhance Global Learning System and identifying and applying in suitable academic scenarios. For further details about our academic approach and curriculum please go through Elementary, Primary, Lower-Secondary and Secondary under academic section in students menu.
