Paradigm of Education for Inspired Learning
Primary Wing
The Primary Wing curriculum is designed to foster a balanced development of essential skills in young learners. It emphasizes the importance of working both competitively and cooperatively, encouraging children to collaborate with peers while also striving for individual excellence. Students are given opportunities to develop leadership qualities, take initiative, and make decisions, which helps build confidence. The curriculum also stresses the importance of punctuality, teaching children to manage their time effectively and complete tasks within set deadlines. A strong work ethic is nurtured by encouraging diligence and sincerity in all activities, ensuring that students approach their work with commitment and attention to detail. In addition to academic growth, the curriculum focuses on nurturing creativity and artistic talents. Students are encouraged to explore their imaginative potential through various creative activities that stimulate problem-solving and innovation. Teamwork is another cornerstone of the curriculum, with activities designed to foster collaboration, communication, and a sense of shared responsibility. By addressing these core areas, the curriculum aims to create well-rounded individuals who are prepared to face future academic, social, and personal challenges with confidence and resilience.
Our school fosters active student participation through activity-based teaching, enhancing communication skills, creativity, critical thinking, and logical reasoning. Meaningful homework and group activities create a student-centered environment where learning thrives. Following CBSE guidelines, we implement Continuous Comprehensive Evaluation (CCE) to monitor student progress through feedback, remediation, and encouragement, with a balanced focus on scholastic and co-scholastic areas, emphasizing life skills, attitudes, and values. Regular parent-teacher meetings and direct email communication ensure strong collaboration with parents, while our updated website keeps them informed about the latest school activities and their child's development.
Beyond Classrooms
This holistic educational approach of SRDAV Primary emphasizes academic, physical, emotional, and moral development while incorporating key elements of India's culture and heritage (Knowledge of India). Students engage in collaborative learning through thematic presentations and competitions in various creative fields, reflecting the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020’s focus on fostering creativity and critical thinking. The curriculum integrates physical health education, aligning with NEP’s vision of a balanced, active lifestyle, while moral education helps develop ethical values essential for responsible citizenship. The curriculum also includes a strong focus on India’s history, culture, and sustainability initiatives, teaching students the importance of environmental conservation and preparing them to be responsible, well-rounded individuals committed to the nation’s growth and global sustainability efforts.
Making Environmental Conscious Citizens
The school is committed to developing environmentally conscious citizens by integrating environmental awareness into the curriculum and activities. Children are regularly sensitized about the importance of conserving natural resources such as water and electricity. Through discussions and projects, students are encouraged to adopt sustainable practices in their daily lives. A key initiative is the celebration of Van Mahotsav Week, where students actively participate in planting saplings. This hands-on activity emphasizes the significance of trees in maintaining ecological balance and highlights their role in combating climate change. Additionally, the school organizes programs and projects that teach students how small actions can contribute to a healthier planet. By involving students in such activities; the school fosters a generation of environmentally responsible individuals who are aware of their role in protecting and preserving the planet for future generations.
Design Thinking Lab
‘Technology in Science’ through Pre- Tinkering Lab enhances scientific aptitude and 21 century skills at an early age by introducing the young learners to the world of technology and science through hands-on experiences, using innovative kits and tools. To foster the spirit of enquiry and induce the joy of hands on learning as a precursor to true education, we have set up this Design Thinking Lab. The project aligns with the goals of New Education Policy by fostering scientific thinking, nurturing creativity, learning teamwork and collaboration, encouraging inquiry based learning and enhancing problem-solving skills. This lab creates an invigorating environment where the Primary students are encouraged to Explore, Experiment and Invent. The interdisciplinary nature (STEAM) of the project encourages connections between different fields.
JUNIOR SRDAVMUN
The SRDAV Junior MUN is an annual event that sees enthusiastic participation from students of classes 5 and 6. During this event, students engage in extensive research, reflect on key issues, and share diverse perspectives. Through training and discussions, our young learners of the 21st century address significant issues with great enthusiasm and maturity. The program provides an invaluable platform for developing essential soft skills like problem-solving, decision-making, public speaking, global awareness, and team-building. As students pass resolutions and recommend solutions, they not only contribute to meaningful discussions but also resolve to implement these values in their own lives. The hard work and dedication of our young participants make the event a success, helping to boost their confidence and prepare them for future challenges.
