OUT OF BOX  LEARNING

Our Hasti school is known in the academic world for its excellent overall performance in the academics & sports but our school firmly believes that Beyond just teaching academics, we should make sincere attempts to  foster students’ development in their relationships, identity, emotional skills, and overall well-being.

We adopt competency based education wherein instead of focusing on grades and yearly curriculum schedules, the main focus is placed on how competent each student is . Currently, our education system often focuses on a narrow sliver of children’s cognitive development with an emphasis on transmitting content knowledge, often to be memorized and repeated in the same form it was received . Lessons in math, science, and reading—and tests in those skills—dominate the curriculum.

While those subjects are fundamental, learning involves far more than merely acquiring inert knowledge in academic subjects namely  Maths /science /evs etc.. Such a narrow focus gives short shrift to the ways that children need to grow and learn some more to become competent &  confident in their relationships, identity, emotional understanding, and overall well-being.

School has made a  plan to   keep every child well informed about the  glossary /basics and conceptual  knowledge  of  in the area of sports / offices /different sectors like Banking , agriculture,Ranks and awards in army & police, judiciary , career guidance etc. With this essential  out of box   additional information to confront future  endeavors  School has grade wise syllabus of such subject as under
