“Education’s purpose is to replace an empty mind with an open one”
- Malcolm Forbes


Teaching Methodology:

Our school adopts new methods of teaching through PPTs, Audio/Visual CDs, Online Teaching, Quiz, Roleplay, Debates, Demos, Experiments, Enactments etc which give our school a unique reputation.

Language System:

Our School follows three language system from LKG to Class V. All the three languages are given equal importance in imparting the four skills of Listening, Speaking, Reading and Writing.

The first language is English; the second language is Hindi and the third language being Tamil up to Class V.

From Class VI to VIII, we are given choice to choose either Hindi or Tamil as our II Language and French is offered as the third language.

Our friends in classes IX and X, will have only 2 languages, English and either Hindi or Tamil. The language chosen as the second language in class VI becomes the second language for the Board Exam.

Home Tasks:

Our school has broken the barriers of conventional methods of learning. Our teachers ensure that we carry less in our hand in the form of notebooks and home works and carry more in our brain in the form of knowledge.

Projects:

The habit of learning is practiced even during holidays by various assignments and activities given to us in the form of projects.

Evaluation and Assessments:

We have a healthy evaluation and assessment pattern wherein only grades are given to us and no comparison is made. The school makes us realize that we have our own talents and potential and we are unique in our own way. To ensure that each of us get individual attention, the student teacher ratio is maintained at 10:1.

Recognition:

The best performers among us are recognized by honouring with Badges of Recognition and Appreciation.

Field Trip:

We are taken out on educational trips with the prior intimation to the parents. We are taken out once in a term though it is not confined to one. The places will depend on the lessons we learn and the concepts we come across. It is indeed a worthy educational tour which promotes better understanding of the concepts.

Industrial Visit:

Our teachers make our learning a pleasant joyful ride by taking us to various industries enabling us to view the world beyond the protected walls of our campus.

Film Fest:

Visual Learning is also imparted in us by displaying movies which are worth watching and informative once in a term.

SUPW:

Hold fast to your aims; for if aims fade; life is broken winged bird that cannot fly. Success means perseverance and we are tied with the relentless move of the time. We are scheduled with the life oriented programme of ten days in the month of April wherein we come across variety of schemes which educate us and ensures us with useful and productive experience in the life skills such as soap powder making, paper-bag making, paper mash, knitting, stitching, etc.,   it is excellent experience and enjoyable. Mahatma envisaged a society where educational institutions combine academic teaching with vocational training.

Carrier Zone:

Special English offers a wide scope for the progress of English, the lingua franca. Systematic well-planned lessons along with inspiring activities help us to reach the heights of tremendous improvement in the acquisition of the language. We feel that the language is no longer a barrier, but it paves the path for the better understanding and usage of this foreign tongue.
