Preschool years mark a transformative shift in early childhood education. This stage emphasizes play-based, activity-oriented, and experiential learning, laying a strong foundation for every child’s holistic growth and lifelong learning journey.
Aligned with the NEP framework, our school has adopted a learner-centric approach that integrates curriculum, pedagogy, and assessment to nurture essential skills such as curiosity, creativity, critical thinking, communication, and collaboration. The focus extends beyond academics to include socio-emotional development, moral values, physical well-being, and cultural awareness.

Through these initiatives, we aim to realize the vision of building a strong educational foundation that empowers every child to become a confident, capable, and compassionate learner prepared for future success.
Grades 1 and 2 as part of the Foundational Stage (ages 3–8 years) — a crucial period in which children transition from play-based early learning to more structured, integrated, and joyful classroom experiences. This stage emphasizes the development of strong literacy and numeracy skills, along with social, emotional, and cognitive growth, forming the bedrock for lifelong learning.
At our school, we have thoughtfully implemented NEP guidelines in Grades 1 and 2 through a child-centred and experiential approach, ensuring that learning remains engaging, inclusive, and meaningful.
Key Features of Implementation
Through these practices, we ensure that the Foundational Stage in Grades 1 and 2 truly reflects the spirit of NEP 2020 — providing every child with a joyful, stimulating, and equitable start to their learning journey, where curiosity is celebrated and confidence begins to grow.
