VISION/ PHILOSOPHY

 

We believe all beings inherently love to learn. Children learn by sharing their discoveries with each other, their teachers and parents.

The vision of the school is to create and nurture a learning community of students, teachers and parents – a community that believes in the possibility of progressive development of children and adults through change in education. Each child is recognised for her own strengths, creating an environment free of judgement and conformity.

It’s a place where ‘I can be me’; true for a facilitator as much as for a student! Our Vision is to enable each child to develop a character that engages with the world with self-worth and acceptance of the other.

Drawing inspiration from the philosophy of Integral Education integration of physical, mental, social, emotional and psychic self of children is emphasised. We believe that acceptance of the self and conflict resolution through dialogue opens pathways to peace.

In the school children and facilitators are both learners; together they discover and construct knowledge. Collaboration is not limited amongst humans; we believe in co-existence and learning to live with and from Nature.

We believe in the philosophy of inclusion and facilitate an inclusive environment for children with varying abilities and from different socio-economic backgrounds.

Visit to Supreme Court, October 2022

 

As an extension of their curricular experience, students of Political Science (Class XII) along with their facilitator Minal didi, went for a field visit to the Supreme Court of India on 1st October’22. Being the highest legal authority of the nation, this was an extremely exciting opportunity for students to build a real world connect while studying about the Judiciary as part of their coursework. After due security clearance, the group was welcomed by the official tour team who escorted them from the entrance of the complex while giving details of significance like learning about the history and architecture of the Supreme Court complex after which they visited Court 1 – court of the Chief Justice of India. The Court was majestic in its design, with a vast library, TV monitors and it was highlighted that no witness boxes are present since only appeals are heard in the Supreme Court. After this, students also got entry into the grandiose Judges' library where entry on other days is particularly restricted. It is Asia’s second largest legal library which housed innumerable resources. A short documentary was shown on the role and significance of the library in the working of the judicial hearings and students learnt of an interesting concept of floating librarians. The library also houses a copy of the original Constitution of India which was kept for viewing. The students then explored other parts of the East and West wing of the complex, got a peek into the Judge’s private chambers and saw where the foundation stone is placed. The visit and its learnings were extremely enriching for students and they took away fond memories from the visit whilst enjoying their bus ride to New Delhi.
