Class III to V

PRIMARY SCHOOL CURRICULUM

We at school are committed to adopt the recommendations of NEP 2020 and NCF. Primary stage (8 – 11 years) is very significant stage of students’ lives as the curiosity of the students is at its peak. Students are full of energy, keen to learn, and ready to adopt and adapt. Keeping the significance of the age group in mind, our focus is to frame a child centric and child friendly curriculum for their holistic growth. Our teaching learning materials are selected/designed keeping in tandem with the learning outcomes of each class. We focus on the optimum utilization of resources of school and of nearby surroundings for the holistic growth of the tiny tots. Our activities are designed to ensure cognitive development, physical development, aesthetic development, ethical development and cultural development of each child. We have a very robust formative assessment system which allows us to track the progress of every child. We regularly monitor and review our plan based on the achievement of the set goals and bring changes in our plans as and when needed.

We ensure to provide a safe, secure, comfortable and happy classroom environment that can address child centred experiential learning.
