Howard Gardner's Multiple Intelligences Theory
Based on Howard Gardner’s Theory of Multiple Intelligences, lessons and assignments are customized to cater to the unique intelligence of each child.
Assessment Regularly
There are formative and summative assessments. Formative assessment is essentially ‘Practice’ based on field trips, classwork and projects over the year. Summative assessment is done periodically to gauge student learning related to set standards. Progress reports are skill based and prepared on the basis of continuous observation and performance during the formative and summative assessments. Marks and Grades are allotted. Grades 9 and 10 are assessed according to the ICSE Board patterns.
Policy of Continuous and Comprehensive Evaluation Scheme (CCE) has formative assessment in our evaluation system. By regularizing and increasing the frequency of assessments. Thus, there is greater time for assimilation, retention and building a base for higher order thinking process of analysis, reasoning and integrating the lessons learnt.
Language Enhancements Programs
The Languages offered in school are English, Hindi and Marathi. Our Language Enhancement training is optimised through the communication skills programme. Activities are planned to promote more practices in writing, reading, listening and speaking skills which consequently increases the level of motivation amongst the students. Regular Literature Festivals consisting of workshops, quizzes, exhibitions, debates, elocutions etc., are part of the Academic Programme.
E-Learnings
Virtual learning is an integral part of education at RIS. Classes are interactive and use of internet, video conferencing are some of the mediums used to enhance student’s skill. Robotics and Coding are a part of the curriculum at RIS.
Specialized, Individual Attention
Individual Attention is instrumental in spotting talent of students in a class. With a student-teacher ratio of 20:1 for Pre-Primary and 40:1 for classes 1-8, we cater to the unique, individual requirements of each and every student by giving them personal attention. Teachers give special emphasis on a customised learning plan through ‘Enrichment Classes’ after school to clear concepts.
