A curriculum is a plan or course of study that outlines the knowledge, skills, and experiences that students will gain during their educational journey. It typically includes a set of learning objectives, teaching strategies, assessments, and materials that are designed to support student learning and achievement.
We have a separate inclusive curriculum for Pre-School (Play Group, Jr.KG & Sr.KG), Primary School + Upper Primary (Class 1 to 8), and High School (Class 9 and 10).
Pre-School (Play Group, Jr.KG & Sr.KG)
Skill and Activity-Based Curriculum. Pre-School includes Nursery / Play Group (Age 3-4 yrs.), Junior Kindergarten (Age 4-5 yrs.) and Senior Kindergarten (Age 5-6 yrs.). This is the preparation for upcoming formal elementary education (Age 6 to 14yrs.).
Our evaluation system is based on two aspects – (1) Quantitative : Recording Marks scored in various subjects and (2) Qualitative: Observing and Recording Skill-wise Child’s progress using Grade Codes and Checklists.
Considering the age of the child in pre-school, our school prepared Checklist for evaluating the child. The teacher uses this checklist to find out and record the extent of development and to observe desired behavioural changes in the child. This checklist will assist and guide teachers in observing and recording what children can do.
Primary and Upper Primary School (Class 1 to 8)
Curriculum designed and developed by SCERT. We use a Continuous and Comprehensive Evaluation (CCE) (सातत्यपूर्ण सर्वकष मूल्यमापन) system of assessment (Examination). This system is mandated by the Right to Education Act of India. This approach is for assessment of the child, which has been adopted and implemented by Govt. of Maharashtra for students of Class 1 to 8. The main aim of CCE is to evaluate every aspect of the child during their presence in the school. There are two kinds of evaluation practices under CCE. i.e. (1) Formative Evaluation and (2) Summative Evaluation.
High School (Class 9 and 10)
Curriculum Developed and designed by Maharashtra State Board of Secondary and Higher Secondary Education and SCERT.
In addition to traditional academic subjects, curriculum may also include life skills, character education, physical education, and career and technical education. The development of a curriculum involves careful planning and collaboration between educators, administrators, and stakeholders to ensure that it is aligned with educational standards, meets the needs of learners, and is continuously evaluated and improved.
