Methodology & Learning

Teaching is conceptual and intellectual, abstract and concrete, creative and sequential. It’s about people but framed through ideas. It’s about content, hearts, minds, the past, the future–whatever we can imagine, teaching and learning are both causes and effectsThe teaching methodology at DPS Kolar is learner centred, nurturing academic excellence and Multi – Intelligence.

Nursery to Class II

“If I cannot learn the way you teach me,
Can you not teach me the way I can learn?”

Our focus at the Pre-Primary and Primary level is to make the transition between the secure home environment and formal schooling, interesting and as smooth as possible for the child. Emphasis is on nurturing the child’s imagination, creativity and providing him opportunities to express himself freely. At DPS Kolar Road Bhopal the concept of Mother Teacher is implemented up to Class II.  It will help in the following ways:-

  1. Understanding the child and developing a support between the learner and the teacher.
  2. Helps in better understanding of various development stages of the child especially cognitive and emotional.
  3. An insight into child’s behavioral problems observed by the teacher. This growth is assessed every quarter of the year.
  4. Both the learner and the teacher spend more time with each other and the teacher personally knows the weak areas of the students and so at times gives special time to complete work of previous class. Very strong bond is formed.
  5. A sense of satisfaction will be achieved, to the teacher, at the end of session on maintaining the growth graph and accomplishing the set target as per the child’s potential.

Classes III to V 

The role of primary education is to ensure the broad-based development of our students. This means ensuring that all students  are able to develop their cognitive, social, emotional, cultural and physical skills to the best of their abilities, preparing them for their further school career. The important aim at this level is the learning of basics and forming a sound foundation which will enable the child to study more complex topics and problems at the succeeding levels. The emphasis is on usage and application, the focus is on developing scientific aptitude and creativity. The co-curricular activities allow them not only to gain confidence but also help them realize their potential in various fields.
