The faculty of Jiva Public School has
played a vital role in shaping its quintessential
spirit. Each faculty member is both a teacher, an expert
in his or her own field as well as a guide for the
students. The faculty JPS consists of 55 full time
highly qualified teachers, who have extensive teaching
experience in their respective fields.
The teachers are emblematic of JPS culture and ethos,
which is the thread that binds the entire teaching
fraternity of the JPS community. This academic community
not only imparts instruction through the regular
teaching periods, but also engages students in a variety
of activities, that instills both team spirit as well as
leadership qualities in them.
Lesson Plan
Teachers at Jiva realise that time is precious, and that
it must be utilised fully to bring out the best results.
They take on the full mantle of creating environments
that are conducive to learning. For this reason, each
teacher creates a lesson plan that clearly defines her
learning objectives, activities, appropriate questions,
examples and home-school connection. The lesson plans
help teachers make the most out of the contact time with
the students.
Activity Calendar
All Jiva teachers plan out various culminating
activities that they perform at the end of each month,
which are connected to their subject objectives. These
include conducting elections, outside expeditions to
local places of interest, exhibitions, interviews and
surveys in the neighbourhood.
Observation File
The goal of successful learning is to identify the
strengths and weaknesses of each student and to work
constructively on them. Jiva’s small-sized classes
enable teachers to dedicate adequate time with each
child. Further, the use of learner profiles helps
identify the nature of each student, and guides them
towards self-understanding, self-improvement and
appropriate career paths. The Observation File includes:
-
a fixed profile, which defines the
learners’ innate styles of learning.
-
daily observations, which provide
regular snap shots of learners in action.
