At The SD Vidya School, our teaching-learning process is thoughtfully aligned with the vision of the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020, which emphasizes holistic, integrated, inclusive, and learner-centric education.
We aim to shift from traditional rote learning to a more experiential, inquiry-based, and flexible pedagogy that nurtures critical thinking, creativity, collaboration, and communication skills in all learners.
Experiential and Activity-Based Learning
Students engage in hands-on activities, experiments, real-life simulations, role plays, and project-based learning across subjects to deepen understanding and retention.
Foundational Literacy and Numeracy
Special focus is placed on achieving strong foundational skills in the early years through play-based and interactive methods, as recommended in the Foundational Stage (Ages 3–8).
Integration of Art, Sports, and Vocational Education
Art-integrated, sports-integrated, and skill-based learning are seamlessly embedded in the curriculum to ensure the development of the head, heart, and hand.
Multilingual Approach
We promote the use of the mother tongue/home language in the early years, while also encouraging proficiency in English and Hindi to build strong communication skills.
Inquiry and Competency-Based Learning
Assessment and classroom practices are aligned with competency-based learning that encourages problem-solving, conceptual clarity, and application of knowledge.
Flexibility and Choice in Learning
Aligned with NEP’s 5+3+3+4 structure, we allow students to explore a variety of subjects and streams based on their interests and aptitudes, breaking the rigid boundaries between academics, co-curriculars, and vocational education.
Use of Technology and Digital Tools
Smart classrooms, digital resources, and blended learning models enhance engagement and personalization in the learning process.
Continuous Assessment for Learning
We follow a system of formative and holistic assessments that focus on identifying strengths, areas of improvement, and supporting each learner’s growth journey, instead of relying solely on high-stakes exams.
Values and Life Skills Education
Rooted in Indian ethos, our pedagogy also emphasizes ethics, empathy, environmental consciousness, and 21st-century life skills, preparing students to become responsible and global citizens.
At The SD Vidya School, we believe that education must empower learners not only with knowledge, but with the skills and values to lead purposeful lives. Guided by NEP 2020, our pedagogical practices are designed to make learning joyful, meaningful, and future-ready.
