PEDAGOGY

About ATOMIC ENERGY CENTRAL SCHOOLS
At AECS, we promote a practice approach making a visible connection between learning and life. Children are encouraged, much beyond the age old mind-numbing education pattern to discover their inner self and education in a fairly practical environment. At AECS, it is our endeavor to provide the children with an ideal environment, which paves way to an all-around development of personality.

AECS also adequately emphasizes on values by preparing children to not just make a living but a life wherever they go. This is accomplished through unique focus on providing children an "Education Beyond Books.

AECS follows a pedagogy that emphasizes on:
Collaborative Learning
AECS moves from individual Teaching-Learning processes to group processes. The class activity is organized into social learning experiences, involving higher order thinking, where children learn structured positive interdependence, collectively working in small groups towards a goal.
Experiential Learning:
At AECS, we place emphasis on learning through experiencing or learning through ‘reflection on doing’. Children relate what they learn to their own experiences, discover and uncover the secrets of knowledge themselves, learn by doing and, by working with their hands, and hence that learning becomes meaningful and delightful. Multi disciplinary learning: AECS moves from single-disciplinary to multi-disciplinary learning and correlation across subject areas to make that learning more useful and permanent.
Holistic Development:
AECS moves from mere intellectual development to holistic development. The school aims to educate not just the mind, but the heart, body and soul as well. Co-curricular activities, workshops, sports, yoga and events- all aim to create complete individuals.
Special about AECS
Child Centric:
A school that always puts the child first: AECS listens to the child’s voice and responds to his/her choice. We work around the systems, curriculum, timetable, teacher preferences, management imperatives and every single other thing, to take care of the child’s interests; and not just children as a whole, but every single individual child. Parent-friendly: We strongly believe that the parent is our partner in the business of transforming the child. Recognizing the parent as a very valued resource, we seek to include the parent very closely. AECS has set up multiple and varied channels of communication between school and parents, some of the most unique being “School Advisory Committees (SAC) and PTMs ”. An active and effective SAC body makes one of the strong pillars of the school.
AECS is that place where it is not about being the best, but about being your best.
