The Jiva Edge

The Living up to its vision of taking education to the next level, Jiva Public School is a trendsetter in many ways. Here, the main focus is on imparting skills rather than simply finishing the syllabus. The teachers and the students interact closely to bring out the best in each child. We recognise the fact that each child is gifted with unique capabilities, which need personalised attention and grooming. With this in mind, a fixed profile of each child is maintained based on a combination of 15 different types of skills such as self discipline, leadership, creativity, and so on. Not only that, classroom activities are based on the concept of Multiple Intelligences. The intrinsic values of Self, Others, and Environment (SOE) are inculcated within the syllabus to make it a part of everyday life of the students.

Jiva Public School is the first school in India to:

• make use of the Internet and email for performing curriculum exchange projects with international students.

• teach digital video-making and create learning resources on various topics.

• have its own constructive-based learning curriculum and textbooks.

• teach through cooperative learning techniques.

• use educational web logs for enhancing effective communication between students and teachers in the school.

•  win a film award at Vatavaran, India’s first National Environment and Wildlife Film Festival, held in Delhi and Dehradoon.

• function without a bell system to help develop a sense of responsibility, discipline and punctuality among students. Everything is managed by students and teachers on time.

• make children wear helmets on bicycle and even educate parents to wear helmets and seat belts.
