At GEI’s Chhabildas English Medium School, our curriculum is driven by developmentally appropriate approaches. The early years are the most significant years for human growth, development and learning for all children , that’s the reason all units of study are based on student interest and integrate literacy, mathematics, science, and art standards. On a daily basis, students participate in authentic learning experiences by engaging in centers, small groups, and whole group instruction. Throughout the year, students are assessed by observations and formal assessments.

At GEI’s Chhabildas English Medium School, we believe that children learn best when they are immersed in meaningful and authentic activities, which will develop a life-long love of learning.
