COVID has forced the entire education system into an online mode.

The curriculum is imparted virtually and its assessment carried out virtually.

Current online assessment process has its own limitations. We must provide options for students to know their strengths and area of improvements to work on and improve.

As parents are taking a leading role in children’s learning during lockdown, assessments too could not be conducted without parents' involvement.

This year we brought a major change in our assessment process.

Teachers hosted several small parent group interactions to involve parents in assessment.

Idea here was to help them understand the child’s growth in various areas of development and remedies they can apply at home to help child grow better.

This has empowered parents in assisting with child’s learning. It also helped them better support student in motivation and learning.

Chirag runs on donations, and the pandemic has hit us hard. Our students often don't have phones, leave alone smartphones, so online teaching is hard. Yet we've innovated so they keep learning. For fundraising, The Himalayan Writing Retreat has amazed us with its "First Draft Club". They have channelled over 43k to us in July alone & have promised to repeat this four times a year. Thank you to all FDC donors. . https://m.facebook.com/497253650483703/

Books are the quietest and most constant of friends; they are the most accessible and wisest of counsellors, and the most patient of teachers.
Charles W. Eliot

Thanks to Pratham for shortlisting our school for STEM Library Grant-2021.

It’s a treasure trove of books to explore STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) subjects and emotional intelligence that engage readers through narratives and eye-catching illustrations.

These books will evoke curiosity in children, encourage them to discover and ask questions about the world around them.

We anticipate a long and fruitful collaboration with Pratham books

Only an empowered and self-aware teacher can empower children to discover themselves.

Our teachers attended a seven days residential workshop on Project Based Learning conducted by Sri Aurobindo Ashram, New Delhi. The workshop focused on key aspects of Integral education-viz. physical, emotional, mental, and inner development.

The workshop was successful in instilling confidence and equipping our teachers with the skill, knowledge, attitude to facilitate project-based learning at School.
