ACADEMICS
Every school transacts the syllabus, we focus
on experiential learning wherever possible and therefore conceptual
understanding.
Every school makes many promises; we walk the talk to a very
large extent. Our student-teacher and parent-teacher relationships are very
happy and fruitful. We understand our students and parents like no other school.
Our core competence is academics and keeping MI in mind, we have created a host
of activities to make the learning experience truly enjoyable.
Our activity-academic mix is judicious and varies at each stage
to suit the learning requirements of the students.Everyone here enjoys what he or she does, it is not just another
job that is done routinely.
We are truly unique - we have had less than 6 to 7 lateral
movements over the last 10 years. Our staff attrition has been mainly due to
spouse relocation
Vimala Chandrasekhar (Principal)
With constant endeavors to balance academics and activities,
students do not feel the pressure of studies only, but at the same time know
that they have to give due attention to studies too.
Remedial help being offered to students with
learning difficulties across grades. Teachers are sensitive to such issues and
coordinate with the counselor to help such students.
Equal opportunities and attention to all students so
that even the most introvert child comes out of his shell and starts taking the
lead.
Consequences instead of punishment for misdeeds
justifies to students that they are getting what they deserve. There is no
feeling of being victimized for no fault of theirs. Most important is the fact
that these consequences are arrived at by students themselves, at the beginning
of the new academic session, through brainstorming in the class.

MULTIPLE INTELLIGENCE
Multiple
Intelligence theory and BCL that is followed in the school lays emphasis in
molding the students in such a way that ensures the overall development of the
students. A lot of emphasis is given on the professional development of the
teachers where they are constantly given reinforcements to bring in new methods
and techniques to the learning process.

STAFF & MANAGEMENT
The
authorities and teachers here are readily accessible to students at all times
whereas in most schools teachers are strictly prohibited from sharing their
telephone numbers and staying in touch with parents and students after school hours.
At any time, parents get in touch with teachers to pass on info, clarify
matters, and share concerns, seek guidance, etc. With constant endeavors to balance
academics and activities students do not feel the pressure of studies only, but
at the same time know that they have to give due attention to studies too.

Management is open to constructive feedback, innovative ideas and is very
positive to dialogue and discussion. The same is seen with the Heads when children and teachers discuss why
even debate and are heard.

INFRASTRUCTURE
We are definitely very conspicuous in the sporting arena - excellent programs,
coaches and infrastructure that invite the sports persons in making
Minu (executive coordinator)
When I first visited the school with my family,
the ambience of the school is what took my breath away. The beautiful
Central Courtyard, the grounds, the Carnival Lawns etc impressed us deeply.
Last but not the least; the school tour helped us understand the
syllabus followed, facilities and the extracurricular activities provided by
the school.
The one's mentioned above were my reflections as a parent at the
time of my children's admission.

Spacious school grounds, open
flexible classrooms, 'small size safe and non-threatening environment' and
that magical patch of green which is our central Courtyard. We are a school
where our 'actions speak louder than words"
Minu
(executive coordinator)
Ours is a 10-acre campus with lots of Open
Spaces and greenery in abundance. We are a sport-friendly school that every
parent is looking for these days for his/her ward.
We promote an overall growth of the child with equal importance
to academics/sports/debates/yoga and other co-curricular activities for which
we have trained coaches.
Our student strength of 25-28 per class is appealing to parents.
We have large, well-ventilated classrooms with a limited strength. No
AC in classroom due to ours being an activity-oriented school has
impressed many a parent in my experience.
