Secondary

Overview

The students of secondary grades of V to X are provided with a significant understanding of each subject. Once the foundation of learning is established in the primary classes, they are further provided with the required academic rigour to prepare them for the upcoming challenges. We provide our students with an integrated knowledge of Science, Technology & Mathematics, in an easily comprehensible manner through our unique teaching methods. The curriculum for secondary school focuses on the career building of a student apart from academic achievements, for which different activities are initiated along with the academic subjects in the curriculum.
It matters a great deal as to how the most basic of concepts are being taught, especially when we take into consideration the most typical of subjects such as Science, Technology & Mathematics. To eliminate the fear and to bring out the best of a child’s performance, teaching methodology plays a big role. Students studying in secondary classes require absolute clarity of each concept.


Teaching Methodology

Our hands-on learning approach allows each child to have a clear conceptual understanding of the logic behind every formula, every practical or every application learned is well engraved in the minds of ‘Our Holy Heartians’. We guide the students with advanced knowledge of Science, Mathematics or any typical subject a child usually runs away from. Students are given ample opportunity to brainstorm and develop reasoning and research-based attitude to foster the stimulation of their minds. To foster team spirit and cooperation, collaborative learning projects are given that further make the learning better and more fun.
