Our Values

Our Focus
To create a joyful learning atmosphere so that students can express themselves freely and explore their creative side to develop their personality.
OUR PEDAGOGICAL VISION
We personalize our students’ learning to ensure that each student is met at their point of need and actively engaged in co‐constructing their individual learning pathway. We pride ourselves on knowing our students as individuals and as learners. We use our knowledge of individual students’ interests and their evidence of learning to create relevant and meaningful learning engagements.
Our teachers work in collaboration to develop and implement an inquiry driven curriculum. Student grouping is flexible, enabling essential skills and knowledge to be explicitly taught at student’s individual point of need. Teachers share and refine their practice by learning and working in teams.
Our Teaching Learning Approach
To ensure students are engaged and involved in their learning, we personalize learning in the following ways:
§ Carefully planned curriculum based on individual child’s needs which includes:
ü Emphasis on prior knowledge
ü Stress on individual interests
ü Focus on individual learning styles
ü Identifying the abilities and skills of students
ü Students and teachers constructing learning pathways together based on two ‐ way feedback conversations.
ü Teachers and students hold feedback conversations to discuss data and developmental needsand together they set goals. They discuss ways to reach those goals and the types of evidence the students will need to produce.

6. SCHOOL ASSESSMENT POLICY
The Assessment policy has been formulated in close alignment with the CBSE board. The Board has always stressed that its students must acquire the skills of critical thinking, problem solving, analyzing information, collaboration, effective communication, developing curiosity and imagination as part of the learning process. It reflects the school’s belief in conducting rigorous and fair assessment practices through reliable and valid assessment tools. It is intended to inform the school- teachers, students, parents and management about the conduct of all assessment procedures to achieve the objectives defined in the curriculum. By stressing high academic standards through a strong commitment to the process of learning; we at IIPS are considering assessment as an integral part of learning. Assessment reflects upon the diverse aspects of the learning process-be it students’ understanding, knowledge and acquisition of skills or teaching strategies and learning outcomes set for a learning programme. Also, it is important to regularly report and record the assessment data to address the scope of improvement in learning and teaching at school.
PURPOSE OF ASSESSMENT
Assessment provides feedback to all stakeholders involved in the learning process:
◆ Feedback to students both in terms of their weaknesses and strengths during the course of learning as well as their achievement of the desired learning outcomes of the programme. This guides them towards steps for improvement as well as encourages them to set goals for the next stage of learning.
◆ Feedback to the teachers in terms of evaluating the learning outcomes and effectiveness of the teaching strategies. This guides them to review the curriculum, devise appropriate instructional strategies for better outcomes, and identify weak areas and specific needs of students to be able to guide them for improved performance.
◆ Feedback to the parents regarding the progress of their wards in different areas of learning.
◆ Feedback to the school management about the quality of curriculum, teachers and the learning environment. This helps them to plan effective pedagogical leadership and training, resource building and admission and language policies for further developmental plans.
ASSESSMENT TOOLS
In order to assess the wide range of learning traits expected to be evaluated in CBSE Examination and Internal assessments, the teachers at the school are expected to employ varied tools for both diagnostic as well as achievement reporting.
◆ It includes Multiple choice questions, unit tests/ Periodic tests, class and group discussions, debates, oral presentations, experiments, projects, research work, role plays, review worksheets, class tests, open book tests, quizzes, field visits, reflections, writing exercises, speaking tests, listening tests, term end examinations and any other method devised by the teachers.
◆ The aforementioned tools can be used appropriately for different subject requirements both for short tests as well as term examinations.
◆ Unit Tests/ Periodic Tests & Mid Term assessment for learning is designed by the subject teachers to identify the learning needs of students during the process. The aim of such assessments is to inform students of their strengths and weaknesses as a part of the course.
◆ The Annual assessment of learning scheduled at the end or is aimed to evaluate the students’ level of achievement of the desired learning outcomes in the whole year.
