Teaching Methodology - general principles



We are here to open the way of the Future to children who belong to the Future - The Mother



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

School Motto: "NO WORDS-ACTS."
