We are pleased to inform you about the recent updates to the education sector through the implementation of the National Education Policy (NEP). The NEP, approved by the Government of India, aims to revolutionize the educational landscape and foster holistic development among learners.

As you are aware, we have already incorporated the transition class, UKG to cater to the 3+3+4 structure corresponding to ages 3-8, 8-11, 11-14, and 14-18 years respectively as per NEP, focusing on holistic development, flexible curriculum, and integration of vocational and academic streams.

In due course, we will be implementing more of the NEP modules for the development of the students.

Moving Forward: –

1. Holistic and Multidisciplinary Education:

• • Our school has consistently prioritized a comprehensive approach to education, aiming for the all-around development of students’ cognitive, emotional, and physical abilities.
  • Moving forward, we will encourage multidisciplinary learning, enabling students to delve into various fields of knowledge and cultivate a comprehensive understanding of different subjects.

2. Flexible and Integrated Curriculum:

• • Our school has long adhered to a flexible curriculum framework that empowers students to select subjects aligned with their interests and abilities. Nevertheless, there will now be greater emphasis on incorporating vocational education, arts, humanities, and sciences to deliver a well-rounded learning experience.

3. Early Childhood Care and Education (ECCE):

• • Our school has been instrumental in emphasizing the importance of early childhood care and education, acknowledging its pivotal role in shaping a child’s future. Moving forward, greater emphasis will be placed on ensuring universal access to quality Early Childhood Care and Education (ECCE), with a focus on nurturing the holistic development of children from birth to six years of age.

4. Technology Integration and Digital Learning:

• • Our school endeavours to encourage the incorporation of technology into education, utilizing digital tools and resources to enrich teaching and learning processes. In the foreseeable future, we envision establishing a digital infrastructure (introducing AI curriculum from classes 3 to 9, implementing 21st-century skills, etc.) and connectivity to facilitate equal access to quality education for all students.

5. Child safety:

• • At our school, the safety of children is our highest concern. We uphold secure facilities and attentive supervision to protect our students. Our institution has led the way in teaching life skills, moral science, and value education. An exclusive session on child safety will be part of the curriculum encompassing topics such as child rights, gender equality, and abuse prevention. This module will be introduced from UKG through class 9 starting from the upcoming academic session.

6. Connect – workshop for parents:

• • A parent engagement workshop designed to facilitate interactive sessions aimed at fostering stronger connections between parents and their children.

As we move forward, we have an exciting array of events, programs, and initiatives lined up for the upcoming months. From guest lectures to student-led projects, there are numerous opportunities for engagement, learning, and personal growth for students. I urge you to stay connected, actively participate, and keep contributing to the diverse experiences that characterize our institution. Together, we will strive to inspire, innovate, and make a positive impact on the world around us.

Thank you for your steadfast dedication and commitment to excellence.

Warm Regards,
