Targeting the segment-specific learning outcomes, the teaching learning process in our New-Gen schools adheres to an academic framework that aligns to the development of 21 Century skills (4Cs, 2R)in children helping them learn to learn for emerging careers of tomorrow through proper reflective procedures in the classroom. A Program based on the CBSE curriculum connecting the local relevance to global thinking delivered through global teaching practices, offered in an environment conducive to learning with modern methodologies and a touch of technology to prepare thought leaders for the future through a gamut of curricular and extracurricular programs.The pedagogical processes are a thorough blend of global and local practices giving the student all that is required to become a global citizen and face the competitive national exams and board with ease.
”The Academic Platform extended through an Annual Curriculum Plan (ACP) includes educational practices that are very specific to us.
We implement individual components of our comprehensive ACP in a way that no child is left behind in the academic journey. The academic journey of the kids here is fun-filled and experiential in nature only to realise the big picture of mastery in learning.
By realising our segment-specific milestones of getting children Learning Ready at the KG level, Reading Ready at the lower primary level, Concept Consolidation at the primary level, Concept Application at the upper primary or the middle school level, we make sure that children get exam ready and career ready as they step into the board classes.
Our outcome-driven academic framework for the teaching learning process is a product of our design thinking process which paves way for a sound pedagogical strategy that works for the development of essential knowledge and skills in children. This strategy intricately weaves our instructional plans concept-wise for the core subjects and skill-wise for the languages.
Our instructional plans take inspiration from board specified guidelines as well as successful global theories and practices especially UBD i.e, Understanding By Design, UDL-Universal design for learning, multiple intelligences, Project Zero’s Thinking routines, art integration in core subjects, VITAL-Values integrated in teaching and learning and so on.
These create a great learning ecosystem for all the Velammalians to become happy individuals and help us achieve our segment-specific goals. Plugging of life-skill activities, activities to enhance study skills and courses to develop futuristic skills in our academic calendar help us celebrate our “Learning festivals” and “Project days” with excitement and extreme contentment whence our learners showcase the skills attained.
Most of our campuses have sprawling playgrounds for physical education needs and to prepare children for zonal and national sports events. Our recent venture into blended learning programs creates opportunities for students to take up scholastic and co scholastic courses online too.
