“Education is simply the soul of a society as it passes from one generation to another.”
– G.K. Chesterton
Education plays a vital role in shaping society. A school, often considered a temple of education, forms the foundational base of knowledge essential for the growth and development of any community and its people.
At Brilliants’ Convent, our mission statement – “Learn to Serve” – is at the core of our unique curriculum and teaching approach. We strive continuously and sincerely to work in a manner that supports this mission.
We believe in harmonizing the collective aspirations of students, teachers, and parents. Schooling is more than just academics, and at BCS, we ensure that students experience practical and experiential learning. This empowers our proud Brilliantians to unlock their true potential and discover their unique identities. We encourage children to celebrate individuality, and to foster a purposeful learning environment. We focus on the holistic development of each child — intellectually, physically, culturally, socially, morally, and spiritually.
As it is rightly said, “The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.”
With this meaningful thought in mind, BCS has already initiated programs aligned with the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). These initiatives aim to develop resources and implement activities in collaboration with different countries, promoting global citizenship and empowering students through quality education. At BCS, we firmly believe that children are the supreme assets of the nation. Therefore, we strive to cultivate a school culture that shapes their civic behavior, identity, skills, and values.
Beyond the academic curriculum, we provide our students with incredible learning opportunities and life-changing experiences.
As a school where quality matters the most, we have made every effort to reflect the kaleidoscope of learning, adventure, creativity, and positive thinking through our students’ writings and drawings. We hope this initiative will serve as a stepping stone towards the many milestones we aim to achieve in our pursuit of excellence.
To engage students in an active learning environment, it is essential for teachers to understand and respond to each student’s individual needs. In today’s ever-evolving educational landscape, effective teaching practices help us as educators to enhance our instructional methods.
Although these strategies may vary depending on students’ age groups and abilities, they allow us to tailor our teaching styles, recognizing that different students learn in different ways.
Teaching Strategies Followed at Our School
1. Encouraging Healthy Communication
We regularly engage students in conversations about their daily routines, in addition to discussing the academic content being taught. Conducting various classroom activities help students develop confidence in speaking and expressing themselves.
2. Being a Role Model
To instill high morals and values, we understand that we must first embody them ourselves. We treat our students with the utmost respect and care, thereby building positive and nurturing relationships.
3. Beginning with a Short Recap
To ensure continuity and long-term learning, we begin lessons by revisiting previous knowledge. Asking inquiry-based questions help put past lessons into context, giving us an accurate picture of students’ understanding and identifying areas that need reinforcement.
By following these teaching strategies, we strive to create a Happy Classroom that fosters meaningful learning for every student.
