True Education moves beyond the confines of academics and extra-curricular activities. It aims to help a student develop emotionally and spiritually.
Value Education has been incorporated in the curriculum to instill the time tested values in children to ensure that in their process of growing up, they learn to be honest, compassionate, truthful, sincere and a well-balanced individual.
Our administration and the staff strongly believe that the teacher’s attitude and interaction make a difference in student’s learning of values. Mutual respect, appreciation, kindness, courtesy contribute to positive classroom climate. The most effective teachers are the ones who model the values they want their students to learn. Students will learn the values if teachers model these values themselves. Considering this, modeling of desirable values by the teacher therefore is considered to be an essential pre-requisite for our teachers.
Strategies used for the integration of values in teaching are:
- Story Telling
- Project Work / Discussions (on the life of great men)
- Team Projects / Community Service
- Each One Teach One (under the National Literacy Mission)
- Life Skills Education
- Drawing / Making Collages (with the help of clippings / magazine articles)
- Role Play
- Field Trips
- Workshops
- Leadership Camps
- General Studies
- Meditation Programmes
- Art of Living Courses
- Involvement in Fund Raisers and so on
