In our world, new discoveries happen every day: knowledge alone is no longer the key to success. We teach your child all the skills they need to succeed.
You must realise that technology has changed our attention spans to be much shorter. Especially if we do not enjoy or like a particular topic, we are quicker to dismiss it and move on. Thus, whatever we teach our children must be interesting and engaging. Otherwise, they will not be able to pay attention.
With this in mind, over the past 10 years, we have completely overhauled our curriculum. Now, we are able to provide engaging, quality education that suits the needs of today’s students. If learning is fun and memorable, your child can learn easily, remember more and perform better. That is exactly what we do.
Our focus has shifted from knowledge dissemination to skill building. Our four pillars of learning are:
Our curriculum focuses on these fundamental skills. Excelling in these areas allows students to adapt and succeed in any environment. Your child too can have this rock-solid foundation.
If your child goes to school, does your current school provide this?
If your child is about to start going to school, you need to make sure that it does.
Here’s how we achieve these goals at Shalini School:
Young students love learning by doing. Making it much more effective than traditional methods. Each lesson is packed with interaction and activities to ensure the best learning outcome.
Fine motor control is taught through writing drills, arts and crafts activities, sensory bins and physical activities.
An early introduction to science instils a sense of wonder. Through real world observations and experiments, we show our kids the marvels of science.
Reading and listening develop the skill of critical thinking. Through our reading and discussion sessions, students engage with different points of view to come up with their own opinions.
Self-expression determines how the world perceives us. We ensure that students are fluent in Hindi and English through numerous opportunities for public speaking. As a result, our students are well spoken beyond their age.
Assignments require students to go beyond their textbook. Then, they present this new information to their classmates. This develops their skill of discovering knowledge and critical thinking.
Our co-curricular program is vast and diverse. It includes an integrated sports program, emphasis on clubs, a myriad of interesting activities, and inter/intra-school competitions.
Coding is the skill of the moment. With a world class program conducted by Infinity Learn, our classes build a strong logical foundation and real world coding skills.
By focusing on these aspects, our tiny tots turn into knowledgeable young individuals who are well primed and equipped to take on the challenges of higher grades.
Each lesson is associated with an in-class or lab activity or demonstration. Students participate and engage in these activities and also perform experiments. Thereby, boosting understanding and retention of each concept
In this phase of schooling, students are encouraged to develop individual skills and talents. Our sports, art, music and dance teachers provide guidance and support throughout their development and find opportunities to showcase their skills.
Students connect their observations to theories and models of scientific concepts through our activities and lessons. This helps them learn and explore various disciplines of science.
Reading and oration allow students to engage and debate other points of view. Through our in-class discussions, debates and public speaking opportunities, students develop impressive skills in critical thinking and speaking.
Writing is the best way for students to refine their ideas and opinions. Through a strong emphasis on writing, students progressively improve their skills while developing individually informed ideas.
Assignments require students to go beyond their textbook and present their findings. This develops their skill of discovering knowledge and critical thinking.
A multi-faceted assessment scheme comprising projects, assignments and various tests helps us evaluate students holistically and find areas of improvement.
Our co-curricular program is vast and diverse. It includes an integrated sports program, emphasis on clubs, a myriad of interesting activities, and inter/intra-school competitions.
Coding is the skill of the moment. With a world class program conducted by Infinity Learn, our classes build a strong logical foundation and real world coding skills. Students develop full fledged product ecosystems, utilising artificial intelligence, app development and voice assistant (Alexa) integration.
Through these areas of learning, students discover their innate preferences and talents making them ready for the next phase of school.
Emphasis is laid on critical thinking abilities across all streams and subjects. Each concept and fact is carefully considered and evaluated from multiple viewpoints and discussed in class. Students learn how to properly evaluate ideas and formulate their own.
Students are motivated to understand concepts from a foundational level aided by demonstrations and practical experience for each lesson.
Students are taught concepts and their applications aided by real world data, case studies and projects.
Students learn how to piece together information across subjects to develop a holistic and well-rounded outlook on matters ranging from history and politics to economics and psychology.
These subjects are introduced in Class IX and Class XI respectively. It is the ideal progression from coding classes to learn more about the theory behind the marvels of computers.
Communication on personal and public levels is focused on through collaborative work, class presentations and public speaking events. Through this, students develop the skills necessary to succeed in college and their career.
Students participate in our integrated sports program and form teams for basketball, cricket and badminton to participate in inter-school activities. Coaches provide motivation and guidance for players to work together on a team.
Multiple rounds of examinations for board classes prepare them thoroughly for their examinations.
Students are now ready for their next journey with the skills of critical thinking, communication and adaptability.
A neglected yet important aspect of education is the social and emotional development of children. Here too, technology has changed traditional methods. Kids are increasingly disconnected from their peers. They prefer online interaction over the playground. This determines the relationships your child will form with other people. As they go through life, this will have a significant impact on their well-being and happiness. It is vital that they know how to form bonds, treat people well and express their feelings.
Time spent at Shalini School is filled with social interaction. Various means such as in-class discussions, group projects and student activities are used to encourage this. Regular sessions are conducted to introduce them to morals and values. Our students get along well with each other and treat each other with respect and dignity.
Supportive and caring teachers allow students to safely express themselves. This lets them progress through life in-tune with their emotions. If any student faces difficulties, they are encouraged to approach their counsellor for help.
An important part of a child’s development is your role as a parent. While we take care of all aspects of academics, co-curricular activities and social development, your contribution and involvement in their activities can elevate, both, the performance and the happiness of your student.
We ensure that all parents are familiar with our teaching and assessment plans through:
Furthermore, parents are invited and encouraged to participate in a wide range of co-curricular activities such as:
Primary School, Middle School, High School
It is time that you forget what you know about education. A new world calls for new education. At Shalini School, students get exactly what they need.
