Nurturing children’s curiosity, enabling them to excel by acquiring knowledge and skills, and developing sound values are at the core of the academic programmes of Yashoda Public School. The school is committed to providing holistic, child-centric, and future-ready education aligned with the vision and recommendations of NEP 2020.
The School’s academic programmes emphasize intellectual growth, experiential learning, creative exploration, emotional development, acquisition of social skills, physical well-being, and character building. With the aim of providing a meaningful and fulfilling educational experience, the school integrates best practices in teaching and learning within the curriculum framework.
The curriculum design promotes experiential and competency-based learning, keeping in perspective how children progress from foundational skills and knowledge to higher levels of application, innovation, and competence. Vertical integration of the curriculum ensures systematic development of concepts, skills, knowledge, and application from one grade level to the next, while horizontal integration promotes interdisciplinary learning across subjects.
In accordance with NEP 2020, the school has introduced innovative and skill-based subjects such as Robotics, Critical Thinking, and Artificial Intelligence (AI) for Classes 3 to 8 to enhance logical reasoning, creativity, problem-solving ability, and technological awareness among learners.
To encourage multilingualism and global exposure, German Language has been introduced for Classes 3 to 5. Additionally, Kaushal Bodh (Skill Education) has been incorporated for Classes 6, 7, and 8 to strengthen vocational skills, practical knowledge, life skills, and employability awareness.
The school has already implemented the Three-Language Formula (3R) in Class 6 with:
The Updated Class 9 Syllabus has also been implemented in alignment with competency-based and experiential learning practices recommended by NEP 2020.
The academic session begins with a Class Readiness Program, designed to bridge learning gaps, strengthen foundational competencies, and prepare students academically and emotionally for the new academic year.
The School uses a wide array of effective and varied assessment tools for continuous and comprehensive evaluation of learning and behavioral outcomes. These assessment practices help teachers identify learners’ strengths and areas requiring support. Teachers accordingly design individualized academic support programmes to bridge learning gaps and ensure inclusive learning opportunities for all students.
Recognizing that one method cannot suit every learner, teachers carefully select the best combination of teaching strategies according to the learning styles, interests, and needs of students.
Teachers act as facilitators and mentors, guiding students through activities, audio-visual learning, projects, presentations, collaborative learning, and hands-on experiences. The focus remains on creating awareness, developing critical and creative thinking, fostering innovation, and enabling students to apply their learning effectively in real-life situations.
