The Primary School Programme encourages inquiry and exploration, and develops children’s competence in various skills – reading, writing, listening,
speaking, thinking, problem-solving, observation, measurement and use of information and communication technology. The Primary School offers an exciting and
creative learning environment, with an inter-disciplinary appreciation of Languages, Mathematics, Science and Social Studies, Art & Craft, Computer Application,
Value Education and Islamic Studies as individual and integrated subjects. Urdu/Hindi are taught as a Second Language while Kashmiri is taught as third language.
This helps to build a strong foundation in languages. Equal emphasis is given to individual, small group and whole-group activities to improve children’s ability to
work across all levels. Physical Education develops sports skills and creates health awareness. Exposure to team and individual sports encourage a sense of team
spirit, and individual effort and accomplishment. The wide range of curricular and co-curricular opportunities offered, helps instill in children confidence and
discipline. The focus on developing communication skills helps them appreciate the value of education, as it reflects in their ability to express themselves. In addition
to developing pragmatic skills, field trips, excursions, activities, projects and presentations provide experiential learning opportunities. Students are encouraged to
participate in inter-house cultural and sports events. Active learning techniques like free play, dramatization, puppetry, singing, and cooking enhances their interest
in learning. Book, newspaper and magazine reading activities help increase child’s awareness of the world. Assemblies, concerts and drama productions help shape
their confidence. Students’ engagement in community service activities from Grade III onwards sensitizes them to the needs of their community and the world
around them; the visit to various charitable institutions like orphanages creates in them the understanding of social issues and a sense to serve the society in general.
