Real World Curriculum TM

While books may prove to be stepping stones, relevant meaningful learning comes from the real world. Phenomena occur everyday that delve into new horizons and perspectives. Everything in the world today is contextual, based on interpretation and circumstances.And educating our children within this contextual world in vital.

Signature School lays emphasis on building the understanding in their students of the world around them instead of passing on more knowledge. The classroom teaching learning is structured around relevant contextual issues and solutions are designed through collaboration. The students engage in research and dialogue in the class with their peers and mentors while constructing their understanding of the world.

Real World CurriculumTM is broadly classified into the following, all of which students at the GDDSS go through:

Academic Knowledge

Contextual knowledge of subjects such as Mathematics, Sciences, Humanities and Commerce. The learning standards are designed after studying the various curricula of the national and international boards and contextualized to the learners needs.

River of Knowledge

The campus is designed around a flowing river called the 'River of Knowledge'. Large, naturally lit and fully-equipped classrooms and open-area 'Studios' for students to work on their own with dedicated Math, Science and ICT labs give students an academic impetus. GD Goenka Signature School library with a collection of digital and print resources expands the worldview of students.

The Real World Curriculum TM Approach

The approach of the Real-World Curriculum is on problems, projects and questions versus the traditional school curriculum approach of facts, skills and disciplines. This approach reflects itself in the delivery of content in the school. Teachers create challenges and interesting questions for students to discover answers to. The questions and challenges are real-life situations that students would eventually face in their lives. Students are constantly involved in doing projects that would let them utilise their learnings in the real world.
