ABOUT ATOMIC ENERGY CENTRAL SCHOOLS
At AECS, we promote a practice approach making a
visible connection between learning and life. Children are encouraged, much
beyond the age old mind-numbing education pattern to discover their inner self
and education in a fairly practical environment. At AECS#4, it is our endeavor
to provide the children with an ideal environment, which paves way to an
all-around development of personality.
AECS also adequately emphasizes on values by preparing
children to not just make a living but a life wherever they go. This is
accomplished through unique focus on providing children an "Education Beyond Books”.
AECS follows a pedagogy that emphasizes on:
Collaborative Learning:
AECS moves from individual Teaching-Learning processes
to group processes. The class activity is organized into social learning
experiences, involving higher order thinking, where children learn structured
positive interdependence, collectively working in small groups towards a goal.
Experiential Learning:
At AECS, we place emphasis on learning through
experiencing or learning through ‘reflection on doing’. Children relate what
they learn to their own experiences, discover and uncover the secrets of
knowledge themselves, learn by doing and, by working with their hands, and
hence that learning becomes meaningful and delightful. Multi disciplinary
learning: AECS#4 moves from single-disciplinary to multi-disciplinary learning
and correlation across subject areas to make that learning more useful and
permanent.
Holistic Development:
AECS moves from mere intellectual development to
holistic development. The school aims to educate not just the mind, but the
heart, body and soul as well. Co-curricular activities, workshops, sports, yoga
and events- all aim to create complete individuals.
Special about AECS
Child Centric:
A school that always puts the child first: AECS
listens to the child’s voice and responds to his/her choice. We work around the
systems, curriculum, timetable, teacher preferences, management imperatives and
every single other thing, to take care of the child’s interests; and not just
children as a whole, but every single individual child. Parent-friendly: We
strongly believe that the parent is our partner in the business of transforming
the child. Recognizing the parent as a very valued resource, we seek to include
the parent very closely. AECS#4 has set up multiple and varied channels of
communication between school and parents, some of the most unique being “School
Advisory Committees (SAC) and PTMs ”. An active and effective
SAC body makes one of the strong pillars of the school.
AECS is that place where it is
not about being the best, but about being your best.
