"Every child is gifted, they just unwrap their packages at different times"
At Dronacharya School , Mubarikpur, we embark on a journey of fostering excellence and empowering children to recognize and unleash their unique potential. We believe in nurturing young minds by providing them with a blend of knowledge and exposure that extends beyond traditional boundaries.

As the little learners step into our vibrant world filled with expectations and aspirations, the Primary wing welcomes them with open arms. Our mission is to guide them on a path of social development, encouraging interaction and cooperation among peers.

Our curriculum is a dynamic blend of current educational thinking and effective pedagogical practices. It undergoes continuous revision, evolving to meet the developmental needs of our students. We go beyond conventional classroom boundaries, taking children on a journey into the real world through experiments and hands-on activities. Our holistic approach aims to foster growth in various dimensions of a child's life—moral, spiritual, cognitive, emotional, imaginative, aesthetic, social, and physical.

To realize this vision, our curriculum is meticulously structured, offering comprehensive and flexible content. It encourages active participation, imaginative thinking, and stimulates creativity, fostering critical thinking skills that are crucial for a child's success in life.

Throughout the year, our calendar is adorned with a variety of activities designed for the wholesome development of children. Field trips, training workshops, and excursions are seamlessly integrated with the curriculum. International Days celebrate cultural diversity, expanding the learners' horizons.

We take learning to new heights through subject-specific celebrations like Literary, Technomathematik, Eloquence week, etc., providing an impetus to logical and creative thinking. Reading aloud to children forms a crucial part of our approach, igniting their imagination, expanding their understanding of the world, and enhancing language and listening skills.

Our extensive Reading Programme, spanning from Pre-Primary to Grade III, is a collaborative effort involving learners, parents, and mentors on a common platform. This not only strengthens the bond between them but also cultivates a genuine interest in reading, enriching vocabulary along the way.

Class Assemblies serve as a reflection of our positive school ethos and value-based education. They showcase students' participation and achievements, reinforcing the importance of our school's culture. Ultimately, our curriculum aims to instil in children the ability to learn how to learn and cultivate an appreciation for lifelong learning. At Dronacharya School, Mubarikpur, we are not just shaping students; we are fostering lifelong learners and future leaders.

The function of Education is to teach one to think intensively and to think critically. Intelligence plus character-that is the goal of true education.”-Martin Luther King, Jr

Education in middle and high schools is undergoing rapid transformation in the 21st century. The traditional model of a classroom, where students sit quietly while teachers impart knowledge, is a thing of the past. Pedagogies have shifted, evolving with each passing year to adapt to the changing needs and expectations of students in our dynamic society.

In the contemporary setting, students bring diverse attitudes and expectations into the classroom, reflecting the complexities of the world they inhabit. The primary objective of schools today is to take on the responsibility of grooming children holistically, strengthening both scholastic and co-scholastic areas, while instilling a strong value system or 'Sanskars' to mold each student into a Good Samaritan.

The educational structure must be carefully constructed to facilitate the pursuit of knowledge rather than restrict the flow of information. An effective educational system should work for and with students, fostering an innovative, student-centered learning environment that caters to the curiosity and eagerness of the present generation.

The role of educators is also transforming from traditional "imparter of knowledge" to that of a coach and consultant. Successful strategies and programs now encourage students to take responsibility for their learning, promoting do-it-yourself approaches, student-to-student teaching, project-based learning, and student-centered environments. The integration of technology further enhances collaboration and connectivity among learners.

Middle school, with its flexibility in experiential and experimental learning, presents both opportunities and challenges. It is a crucial age bracket where students are eager to explore and learn, yet it is also marked by emotional turbulence. Balancing these factors is essential, and Dronacharya School is committed to providing a supportive environment.

In our approach, students work in small groups, engage in various learning tasks, and explore diverse books. Teachers provide guidance, ensuring that all students have the opportunity to participate in school activities. Dronacharya School focuses on delivering educational experiences that prioritize instruction and the overall well-being of learners.

Collaboration among teachers, counsellors, administrators, and parents is crucial to addressing the diverse needs of middle school students. Recognizing and addressing developmental diversity is a key aspect of our educational philosophy.

Our aim is to:
• Recognize learner diversity
• Employ educators trained in middle school education
• Offer exploratory curricular programs that encourage learner interest
• Provide age-appropriate guidance and counselling
• Ensure equal access to educational experiences
• Promote a positive school environment
• Involve parents and families in the educational process

While emphasizing academic achievement and appropriate behaviour, we also provide learning experiences that cater to individual needs. Ultimately, education at Dronacharya School means nourishing the mind, enabling it to develop beyond the limitations of current social perceptions.

“Are we forming children who are only capable of learning what is already known?”Jean Piaget
At Dronacharya, our educational philosophy revolves around the belief that learners should be given the opportunity to discover knowledge rather than being simply instructed about known facts. Aligned with the insights of eminent developmental psychologist Jean Piaget, who stated, "when you teach a child something you take away forever his chance of discovering it for himself," our classes at Dronacharya are meticulously designed to ignite curiosity, foster critical and lateral thinking, and encourage creativity and innovation.

Our primary aim is to equip learners with the essential skills and competencies needed to navigate the challenges of the 21st century, preparing them for a life beyond the school gates. The school places a strong emphasis on STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) education to cultivate a scientific temperament in our learners.

The educational program at Dronacharya, in accordance with the guidelines of the Central Board of Secondary Education, offers a diverse range of subject choices to learners. The curriculum is further enriched through an innovative and interdisciplinary approach. We adopt experiential learning as the foundation of our teaching methodology, ensuring that learners gain a profound understanding of diverse concepts.

Higher order thinking skills and value-based questions are integral to the learning process. To foster a love for subjects, we organize Department Weeks regularly, allowing students to deepen their knowledge and understanding. The school integrates international perspectives into its teaching approach through sessions by faculty members from foreign schools and faculty exchange programs.

Activity-based learning is a hallmark across subjects, with languages nurtured through radio shows, role plays, interviews, and creative assignments. Mathematics is made engaging through games and the use of manipulatives, while humanities education aims to enable learners to appreciate diverse cultures and customs.

The Sciences are nurtured through innovation and experimentation, with students recognized by CBSE for their innovations in sustainable use of renewable resources. Commerce students gain practical experience through field trips, surveys, analysis of financial happenings, and presentations.

In the senior school at Dronacharya, educators play the role of facilitators, nurturing the educative ability of learners and illuminating multiple approaches to analyzing tasks. We recognize the importance of accommodating differential learning styles and view 'differentiation' as a virtue and strength in the learning process.

Our senior school classrooms provide an open-ended platform for students to express opinions and think comprehensively about subjects, fostering perspective building. We value unconventional and free-spirited ways of education, aiming to facilitate the tuning of permeable boundaries of curious minds, making them more sensitive, socially accountable, and integrated into the world.
