Social and emotional learning (SEL) is an integral part of education and human development. SEL is the process through which all young people and adults acquire and apply the knowledge, skills and attitudes to develop healthy identities, manage emotions and achieve personal and collective goals, feel and show empathy for others, establish and maintain supportive relationships, and make responsible and caring decisions. Specialised SEL modules are designed and conducted for the primary and middle students at our school. The designs are facilitated by SEL teachers who are trained by experts in this field.

The stark benefits of SEL at school:
1. It leads to improved academic outcomes and behaviors.

2. It helps students manage stress and depression.
3. Promotes improved attitudes.
4. These skills help improve lifetime outcomes.

School has always emphasized on a practical approach to difficult concepts of the subject in order to build a fundamental approach for the child. Implementation of the same is being done with a state of  art and the technical support in the school’s Social Science Lab.

The methodology of the implementation works around connecting the thinking patterns of the child to different domains of the subject which encapsulates map reading, model making and demonstrations fully supported with video explanations for visualization of different scenarios in the practical form to support the child’s understanding and reasoning.

Experiential Learning is a teaching approach that provides students with hands-on experiences that enable them to learn by doing. It involves engaging students in activities that allow them to apply what they have learned in the classroom to the real-world situations. At our school, we believe that experiential learning is an essential part of education, as it helps students develop in critical thinking, problem-solving, and decision-making skills, also building their self-confidence and sense of personal accomplishment. Our experiential learning programs are designed to provide students with a wide range of opportunities to engage in hands-on learning activities that support their academic and personal growth. From Science experiments to project based learning, field trips to industrial visits, Maths projects to surveys, entrepreneurial projects to digital media projects, various outdoor education activities, our students have access to a variety of experiential learning opportunities that help them develop the skills and knowledge they need to succeed in school and beyond.

Art-integrated learning is an inventive and constructivist learning approach through which students illustrate, experiment & demonstrate the concept through various art forms. Art integration into the curriculum implies exploring academic contents (facts, ideas, concepts, processes, and methods) and skill sets to be acquired by a student through the spectacles of various forms of art. Instead of teaching art as a separate subject, teachers use dance, drama, music, visual arts etc. to teach a variety of academic subjects in a more engaging way. A 360-degree holistic learning is possible in classrooms by integrating various academic concepts with arts. Cognitive domains along with socio-emotional, behavioural, psychomotor domain development could be targeted using this.
Integrating arts into the subjects bring not only JOY but also makes the learners ACTIVE which eventually lead to the development of 21st-century skills. Creativity and innovation utilized in the artistic process compel children to think creatively and help these skills come more naturally in real life.

Libraries are an absolute delight for the book lovers and intellectuals. Our library serves as a pilgrimage for the worshippers of knowledge and wisdom. It’s beautifully designed with various reading zones for the students. It holds about 16000 books on a wide variety of subjects. We have a wide range of encyclopedias, short stories, novels, fictions and other reading material useful for children.

School has three well-furnished computer labs, of which, two labs are for the seniors
i.e. classes VI-XII and the third is for classes I-V.

coding simultaneously.
All labs have 40 computers each. It aims at providing each student a computer for
easy and independent learning.
Students enthusiastically involve in doing creative work while planning PPT’s for
the Assembly, Farewell, webinars, Focus editing and compiling. Students are the
best supporters and eager learners.

The students have the opportunity to nourish their classroom learning by doing in laboratories. We believe what the classroom teaches, the laboratory demonstrates & proves. There are three science laboratories viz. Physics laboratory, Chemistry laboratory and Biology laboratory. The laboratories are equipped with apparatus, models, chemicals and organic specimens for scientific research and development. All the laboratories of our school are conducive to the development of a scientific attitude in the students.

Project/Activity based learning helps children to gain knowledge and use their creative dynamism through various activities. The academic facility gives space for horizon of learning through plenty of project work, practical work and individual activities.

The English Language is a work in progress!!
Why fear when Language Lab is here.
Have Fun With It.
The best way to learn something is to experience it first-hand. Our Digital Language Lab software does not just focus on LSRW but also covers the soft skills that needs to be enriched with academics. It allows a student to interact, study and experiment with the language skills in a practical manner.
