PREFACE
Education is the discovery of journey and growth. The Indian
Heights School stands committed in providing holistic quality
education for which we are constantly striving to improve and
introduce innovations in our existing system. Educomp Smart
Classroom is a step towards this to evolve the idea of technology as
an effective teaching aid and learning tool. Curriculum assesses a
total teaching learning program based on overall improvement,
syllabus, teaching pattern, methodology and assessment. In short it
provides a framework of knowledge and understanding as
appropriate to a particular level. Our curriculum is child centric and
comprehensive. It seeks to create a balance between physical,
emotional, social & spiritual growth along with academics. Due
importance is given to both Scholastic and Co-scholastic areas with
regard to attributes such as Life Skills, Attitude, Values, Sports and
Games as well as Co-curricular activities. As per the guidelines of
the Central Board of Secondary Education, we follow Continuous
and Comprehensive Evaluation System. It is in the classrooms that
learners can analyze and evaluate their experiences, learn to doubt,
question to investigate, and think independently.
Page
The syllabus has been designed and planned keeping in mind the
‘Continuous and Comprehensive Evaluation’ which is a useful
proposition for overall growth of students through continuous
diagnosis remediation, encouragement and appreciation. The
facilitators in the school are putting in their concerted efforts.
However, it does require the coordinated effort as well as active
participation of the parents. We would appreciate the parents’
unstinted support and involvement as had been in the past towards
the multifaceted personality development of the child in this
Academic Session also.
1
Continuous and Comprehensive System covers all aspects of
students’ development. The objective of CCE is to bring continuous
improvement in the performance of the learners through regular
assignments and evaluations. In Primary classes the assessment is
based on regular Ongoing Evaluations and Internal Assessments.
Evaluation is reported according to 5 Point Grading Scale. For
classes VI onwards, assessments are both Formative and
Summative. A 9 Point Grading Scale is followed.
