Baroda High Schools

Curriculum Overview

We follow structured academic frameworks aligned with GSEB and CBSE standards, focusing on clarity, continuity, and outcomes.

"As per NEP 2020, the key overall thrust of curriculum and pedagogy reform across all stages is to move the education system towards real understanding and towards learning how to learn- and away from the culture of rote learning as is largely present today. The aim of education will not only be cognitive development, but also building character and creating holistic and well-rounded individuals equipped with the key 21st century skills."

The Foundational Stage (Jr. KG to Std. 2)

The Foundational Stage (Jr. KG to Std. 2) bridges the divide between the home environment of the child and the formal school environment. It develops capacities in Foundational Literacy and Numeracy that enables the student to learn all other subject areas. Play and exploration are the natural modes through which children learn and the Foundational Stage utilizes these modes to promote the valuable capacities and dispositions.

We provide ample first hand experiences to our students to attain optimal outcomes in the domains of physical and motor development, cognitive development, socio-emotional-ethical development, cultural/artistic development, and the development of communication and early language, literacy, and numeracy.

The Preparatory Stage (Std. 3 to 5)

The Preparatory Stage (Std. 3 to 5) consolidates the capacities and dispositions that begin to develop in the Foundational Stage. Students are expected to develop fluency in literacy and numeracy and develop further capacities that are helpful in a systematic exploration of the natural and social worlds around them.

Basic Core Skills like Communication skills, Learning through Context, Questioning Skills, Listening. Speaking, Reading, Writing (LSRW), Building Language and Subject Vocabulary, Understanding Health & Wellness etc. are taught at this stage.

The Middle Stage (Std. 6 to 8)

The Middle Stage (Std. 6 to 8) utilizes the capacities and dispositions developed during the Preparatory Stage and introduces the students to different forms of understanding. Students gain systematic knowledge through rational thought and enquiry.

We provide enough opportunities to the students so that the capacities for critical thinking and problem-solving are consolidated in this stage and they acquire the desirable values and dispositions for democratic/economic/cultural participation.

Secondary & Higher Secondary

 Secondary & Higher Secondary as children enter the next phase, their imagination increases and learning of concepts presented in an abstract manner are easily learnt.
