Knowledge and intellectual capability alone are not sufficient to meet life’s challenges. Learning to enquire, to observe oneself, to relate with other people and the earth, is the core intention of the school. Ascent Public School is a constantly questioning, evolving institution, with the intention of creating an environment, a climate where one can bring about, if at all possible, a new human b
eing. It is imperative therefore that parents and students understand and appreciate the intention of the school and actively participate in this movement. The school sincerely attempts to translate this intent by adopting the following:
• Relationship between the student and the teacher- is human to human rather than position to position.
• Emphasis is on learning and facilitation and not teaching and absorbing.
• Recognize the fact that each child is unique and one size does not fit all !
• Methodology and pedagogical techniques that ensure that there is no hierarchy of knowledge and suitable for differential learning capacities and learning speed
• Art, music, dance and sports form an integral part of the learning process
Learning from nature is facilitated by the bounty all around.
