Methodology
Delhi Public School (DPS) Gaya has adopted a multifaceted educational approach that aligns with the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 and prepares children for the 21st century. We focus on each student's needs, interests, and pace, promoting child-centric learning. Self-directed learning is encouraged, allowing students to explore topics that intrigue them, making education relevant and engaging. We emphasise hands-on experiences, projects, and practical applications of knowledge, promoting experiential learning that encourages critical thinking, problem-solving, and creativity. Students are encouraged to ask questions, investigate, and discover answers independently, promoting inquiry-based learning that develops research and problem-solving skills and promotes a deeper understanding of concepts.
Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) education is given priority. We have integrated STEM subjects into the curriculum and provided opportunities for students to engage in real-world STEM projects, fostering innovation and analytical thinking through Robotics and AI labs. As technology is integrated into teaching methods, students are continuously equipped with digital literacy skills, including coding and programming. We incorporate activities and assignments that challenge students to think critically, analyze information, and solve complex problems while encouraging them to approach issues from multiple perspectives.
We promote student teamwork and collaboration by assigning group projects and activities that require effective communication and cooperation, mirroring real-world work environments. Creativity is fostered through arts, music, drama, and other creative outlets, encouraging students to express themselves creatively, which is invaluable in the 21st century. Ethical and moral education is integrated into the curriculum, promoting values such as empathy, inclusivity, and social responsibility, in line with our focus on holistic development.
We encourage students to develop global awareness and understanding as international perspectives are incorporated into the curriculum. We also promote cultural exchanges, global collaborations, and exposure to diverse viewpoints. Emphasis is given to environmental consciousness and sustainability in education. Students are taught about environmental issues, conservation, and responsible citizenship.
DPS Gaya invests regularly in training and development for educators, equipping them with the latest pedagogical approaches, technology skills, and innovative teaching methods. Parents and the community are regularly involved in education, encouraged to participate in their child's learning journey and contribute to the school's growth. We have designed adaptable learning spaces for various teaching methods, including collaborative workstations, maker spaces, and technology-rich classrooms. DPS Gaya is determined to create a dynamic and future-ready learning environment that prepares students for the challenges and opportunities of the 21st century, in line with the objectives outlined in the National Education Policy.
