BEST SCHOOL IN BHUBANESWAR, ODISHA FOR PRIMARY EDUCATION

We create the signs of commitment, dedication and hope within your child to carry the human excellence ahead.

OVERVIEW

Our primary curriculum strongly stresses the conceptual learning of the subjects, as here, the skills the students developed in the Early Year Programme come into action. Each year, as they begin their journey to primary classes from std-I to V, they are introduced to a new curriculum to provide them with advanced learning. This phase serves as an intermediate phase between the conceptual learning stages to the career-building stage.

Everything learned in the primary classes will build the foundation for the students to work towards their dreams. Therefore, in this crucial phase, every aspect of learning, i.e. academics, inculcating values, discipline etc., is closely taken care of. The development during the primary stage of education empowers the comprehensive abilities enhancing their vision for both personal and academic goals.

Our curriculum is meticulously designed to give students a clear understanding of the topics that have a vital significance throughout their life. We accomplish this through our innovative teaching methods, focusing on applying concepts and creating a hands-on experience for students using learning kits and practical methods.

Teaching & Learning Strategies

ODM has integrated classroom teaching with regular home assignments to develop self-discipline among students. In addition to this, there are regular graded worksheets that the students are required to complete and upload on the Learning Management System portal on ODMConnect. Finally, there is a planned approach for virtual as well as in-person doubt clearing followed by final examinations.

Daily Curriculum Plan

At the beginning of each academic year, a Daily Curriculum Plan is published for all subjects across classes. This helps bring about uniformity in the quality of sessions conducted by different teachers. These Plans are also shared with parents to keep them apprised of the academic proceedings.

Role of Class Mentors & POC

Class teachers are responsible for monitoring the progress of individual students. They engage in verbal communication with the parents fortnightly to keep track of the growth and development of the child beyond academics and maintain a record of the same. They are required to undertake hygiene activities such as marking daily attendance, and ensuring students are well groomed and in proper uniform. Class teachers also maintain a record of parents’ active contact numbers in case of any emergencies. They act as a bridge between parents and children by communicating the progress and needs of the child to the parents. If a student is absent for more than two days, the class teachers must reach out to the parents via email.

Home Assignments, Question Booklets

Home Assignments form a regular part of the curriculum wherein students are required to do a written assignment or read a chapter as part of the prerequisite of the following class. This helps inculcate self-discipline among students. For classes IX and X, ODM has designed Question Booklets in order to familiarise students with the pattern of the CBSE Board Examination, thereby enabling them to practice and prepare for the same accordingly.

LMS & Supportive Materials

The Learning Management System on ODMConnect allows teachers to upload presentations that are used for classroom proceedings which can be accessed by students. The students can upload their worksheets on the portal, which are then graded by teachers online.

Classroom – Activity-Based Learning

Across subjects, to the extent possible, teachers undertake an activity-based approach to enhance student learning. Research suggests that experiential learning increases the retention power of students. Students are informed beforehand in case they are required to carry any materials for the same. The concerned teacher explains the task followed by the activity which is then performed either by the students in groups or individually or by the teacher to demonstrate to the class, depending upon the scope and suitability of the task. Followed by the demonstration, the teacher gives a debrief to students and helps them understand the concept behind the same.

Doubt Clearing

ODMConnect allows students to raise their queries which are then addressed by teachers virtually or face to face. In case of virtual solutions, teachers may share voice notes, images or written responses to resolve the queries. During examination preparation leave, special doubt clearing sessions are arranged online for all subjects to address the last-minute queries of students. This session is conducted in small groups to ensure individual attention.

Special Academic Initiatives

At ODM, we recognize that not every student is the same and has the same potential. Keeping their individuality and varied learning needs in mind, we conduct separate sessions for high achievers as well as remedial sessions for students who require some extra support. While the former aims to prepare students for Olympiads and other competitive exams, the latter focuses on strengthening the foundation of the students in order to aid their current and future academic learning.

Ensuring Quality in Academics

At ODM, we have a guidebook called “Teacher’s Notes,” wherein for every class, every subject and every session, there is a pre-documented note on what the flow of each session should be, what are the topics to be covered and what are the learning outcomes. This helps ensure uniformity and quality of teaching across various instructors.
