TEACHING METHODOLOGY
At SV High we believe that all children are able learners and not merely students. It is therefore our responsibility to identify their strengths and open up their world to unlimited possibilities. Our teaching approach combines the best pedagogical practices of progressive education to suit the requirement of every learner. Our teaching methodology is objective-based, experiential, inclusive and embraces the voice and choice of the learners in their learning process. Our expereinced faculty is adept at creating class environment which keeps every learner optimally challenged in order for them to achieve their full growth potential and fuels a genuine love of learning.
ASSESSMENTS
At SV High School assessments are continuous and constructive in nature. While the assessment practice is grounded in the objectives and outcomes of the syllabi, our focus on nurturing the love for learning underpins our assessment policy. Student assessments are embedded in the teaching and learning process. The assessment activities are designed to inform instructions and provide evidence of learning for the skills and the concepts which the students are expected to master at each level.
Each student is appraised more against his or her individual progress rather than comparing his/her achievement against the class. The performance is reported with qualitative feedback and intervention plans to help students improve on their areas of weakaness and reach their potential in their areas of strength.
