|
| The Future Foundation School : Junior School |
|
- The Junior School comprising Classes I to VI, aims to provide not just
academic education but a holistic view of life, to the young and tender
minds - a guiding light of the philosophy of The Mother and Sri
Aurobindo
- The process of imparting education is of a different dimension, giving
the child the space he or she needs to grow and learn, at the same time
- The role of the teacher is not just the conventional one of an
instructor but that of a Facilitator
- Learning is based on experience, from the known to the unknown, from
the near to the far
- Syllabus is skill-based, keeping in mind the learning-readiness of the
children
- There is no formal system (Block Tests) of examination till Class V,
but a system of continuous assessment throughout the year
- The method of Theme-based Teaching has been adopted for Classes
I and II and Project-based Teaching for Classes III to VI
- There is an annual Project Display

|
| The Future Foundation School : Senior School |
|
- The Senior School comprising Classes VII to XII is unique in many
aspects. The students are not just taught, to secure high marks in Board Examinations and qualify in competitive examinations, but, to become true citizens of the country and the world.
- The methods of teaching are innovative - from seminar-based to debates
and role-plays inside the classrooms.
- Sports and music form an integral part of the education of a
student.
- No formal ranks are awarded to students - instead they are graded on a
number of parameters in every subject.
- A subject "Life-Skill" teaches students of Classes
III - X things ranging from common etiquettes to health and hygiene.
- The Senior School does not believe in churning out an assembly-line of
doctors and engineers but encourages children to become lawyers,
musicians, actors etcetera. Regular career-counselling sessions are held
to achieve this end.
- Regular exhibitions are held on Social Sciences, Languages and other
Science subjects. Quiz contests are organised in various fields like
Mathematics, Nature, Current Affairs.
- There are four clubs - Interact, Cultural Club, Nature Club and Quiz Club.
Membership of one of these clubs is compulsory for children of Classes
VI - IX. For classes X-XII, membership of these clubs is desirable, but
not compulsary.
- There are four Houses with regular inter-house activities
