The Changing Face of Education


A Study by Pratibha Pallavan Public School: The world is changing rapidly and to keep up with it, we are now seeing rapid changes in education as well. For schools like Pratibha Pallavan Public School, who have always believed in growing with time, these rapid changes do not only mean change but also transformation. Today’s students need to be equipped for a completely different workforce and future than their parents or even teachers had imagined.


 


What Makes Pratibhha Pallavan’s Curriculum Unique?

Most schools take a lock-step approach to education. Teachers assign certain subjects and topics at certain times during the year, and students are forced to accommodate. At Pratibha Pallavan Public School, we believe that education should be tailored to each student’s ability level, interests, strengths and weaknesses. Our students benefit from a multidisciplinary curriculum that provides them with enough flexibility for exploration without making them feel overwhelmed or left behind.  We have chosen not to teach in silos; instead, our classes intertwine and build off of one another as children grow.

Great Teachers! Every great school needs great teachers—especially when those teachers have over 15 years of experience! At Pratibha Pallavan Public School, we don’t just want great educators; we want passionate ones too. We hire only people who care about their craft as much as they care about their students.

 

What Sets Us Apart?

Mr. Akshay Anand, Educational Director of Pratibha Pallavan Public School is a dynamic individual who has a passion for creating great learning experiences. Computer Science graduate Akshay has undertaken several initiatives to set his institution apart from others in terms of curriculum development and improving efficacy of teachers. In addition, he ensures that inputs are constantly being made available to children regarding scientific knowledge using various activities such as science exhibitions and other avenues that enable them to gain knowledge about their surroundings as well as beyond. The students have also been encouraged by him to participate in competitions both at school level as well as other inter-school & state level events through which they can demonstrate their hard work.

 

From A to Z, All the Best at My School

My school gives children more than just books and other facilities, says Akshay Anand, Education Director of Pratibha Pallavan Public School. We want to create a new educational paradigm; we want to truly empower our students. The teachers at my school know how important it is to engage children in interactive, hands-on learning as early as possible. For example, every class has a teacher and an educator (ET), who are specially trained for that purpose. One thing I’m very passionate about is technology: Considering covid19 & online module of education we introduced Pratibha Pallavan App. This App is helpful for students as well as teachers in conducting online classes, one to one session as well as periodic assignments & timely evaluation. Our labs have state-of-the-art gadgets so students can get some real hands-on experience in engineering and science. We also try to keep things interesting through experiential teaching: If a child learns biology by watching an animal up close, they remember it better. That’s why we introduced smart classes because seeing something helps us understand it better than reading about it or hearing about it does.

 

What Does the Future Hold for Pratibha Pallavan Educational Group?

Pratibha Pallavan Public School was founded in 1993 by Dr Abhiram Singh, who had an educational vision that has stayed with me ever since. I plan to transform it from a school into a more sustainable institution, a university for lifelong learning for thousands of children and young adults in Jehanabad & Bihar. We are also planning to set up a world class school in Delhi NCR in the coming years. The pace at which technology is transforming education is unprecedented; it’s both thrilling and daunting to consider how we are going to educate our students today so they can thrive tomorrow.
