Curriculum
We take pride in delivering an academic programme for Grade 9–12 that goes beyond traditional learning. Nurturing an environment of inquiry, innovation, and critical thinking, our programme is designed to provide students with a holistic education that not only strengthens their academic foundations but also prepares them for real-world challenges, as envisioned by the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020.
Subject Flexibility and Choice
The secondary school academic curriculum offers a broad spectrum of subjects across various streams —science, commerce and arts and humanities— allowing students to personalize their learning experience. Whether a student’s interest lies in Mathematics, Sciences, Business Studies, or the Creative Arts, our programme ensures that they receive a balanced education, enabling them to make informed decisions about their academic and career paths. Students can tailor their education by selecting a combination of subjects that align with their aspirations and career goals while ensuring a strong foundational understanding across core areas. This will assist students in preparing for both higher education and the dynamic demands of the 21st Century workforce.
Skill-Based and Experiential Learning
Our academic programme goes beyond textbooks, integrating project-based and experiential learning to help students apply theoretical concepts to real-life situations. We believe in the power of hands-on experience, where students engage in activities that promote critical thinking, collaboration, and problem-solving. Whether it is through lab experiments, business simulations, community projects, or field trips, students are provided with opportunities to enhance their knowledge and skills in practical settings.
Industry Exposure
Internships and career-oriented projects are the key features of Senior Secondary programme. Beyond the classroom, our Senior Secondary program provides students with invaluable opportunities to explore the working world. By developing leadership, communication, and entrepreneurial skills, we prepare our students to confidently navigate their future educational and career paths.
Focus on Competency and Conceptual Mastery
Our academic programme places a strong emphasis on conceptual clarity and competency-based learning. Our curriculum emphasizes conceptual understanding and application over rote memorization, preparing students to think critically and solve problems effectively. Regular assessments, including projects, presentations, quizzes, and practical exams, help ensure that students achieve mastery of the material while also developing critical thinking skills.
Support for Higher Education and Career Pathways
We offer counseling and mentoring that support students to navigate their educational and career choices. Whether they aim for competitive exams, higher studies, or professional careers, our academic programme equips them with the knowledge and skills needed to succeed.
Excelerate and Beyond
The Senior Secondary students also benefit from our dynamic ‘Excelerate’ platform, which offers an array of opportunities to hone their skills in various fields such as science, commerce, design, technology, theatre, and leadership. The platform enables students to take on diverse roles, helping them develop their organizational, creative, and leadership abilities. This ensures that every student can explore their unique strengths while contributing to the school’s vibrant community.

Assessment and Evaluation
Continuous and Comprehensive Evaluation (CCE)
Our assessment model is grounded in Continuous and Comprehensive Evaluation (CCE), which ensures that students are assessed regularly, throughout the academic year. This approach goes beyond summative assessments such as end-of-term exams and includes formative assessments that happen daily or weekly through classwork, assignments, quizzes, presentations, and project work.
Competency-Based Assessment
In alignment with NEP 2020, we have adopted a competency-based assessment approach. This evaluates students’ ability to apply their knowledge and skills to real-world situations. Our assessments are developed to analyse the critical thinking, problem-solving, creativity, and collaboration—skills essential for success in the 21st Century. Project-based assessments, open-ended questions, and case studies are integral components of our competency-based evaluation, as they assess students’ ability to apply their knowledge and skills in real-world contexts.
Diverse Evaluation Tools and Techniques
Beyond traditional exams, we use diverse assessment methods to evaluate each student’s capabilities. These include:
- Oral Presentations: Assessing communication skills and the ability to articulate ideas clearly.
- Practical Assessments: Evaluating hands-on understanding in subjects like science, mathematics, and computer science through lab work and experiments.
- Peer and Self-Evaluation: By encouraging students to reflect on their work and collaborate with their peers, we foster a sense of ownership and accountability for their learning.
- Portfolios: Compiling a record of student work over the academic year, showcasing growth in various areas including academic achievement, creativity, and critical thinking.
While formative assessments are important in our evaluation process, we also conduct summative assessments at the end of each term. These exams provide a comprehensive measure of student learning, ensuring the students have mastered the curriculum. These assessments are integrated into the broader evaluation system, which includes ongoing class participation, project work, and overall contributions.
Personalized Feedback and Growth Tracking
Every student receives detailed feedback on their performance, including suggestions for improvement and areas where they have excelled. Our teachers work closely with each student, offering one-on-one guidance and support where needed. Growth tracking allows us to monitor individual progress over time and tailor interventions or enrichment activities accordingly.
Fostering Self-Reflection and Lifelong Learning
Students are encouraged to set personal goals, reflect on their learning experiences, and take ownership of their academic journey. This promotes a growth mindset and builds the confidence needed to succeed inside and outside the classroom.
Balanced and Structured Academic Schedule
The academic schedule is designed to ensure a balanced and productive learning environment for students in Grade 9-12. Our schedule provides a mix of academic rigour, extracurricular activities, and personal growth opportunities, fostering a holistic development approach. Each school day is carefully structured to allow adequate time for core subjects such as mathematics, science, languages, and social science, while also incorporating periods for practical subjects like computer science, design, and physical education. This balance ensures that students receive theoretical knowledge and hands-on experience, for comprehensive learning. The schedule includes regular breaks to ensure students remain focused and energized throughout the day.
We follow a semester-based system with two terms in the academic year. Regular assessments, projects, and exams provide students with opportunities to reflect on their progress and make improvements throughout the term. Dedicated time for extracurricular, clubs, and co-curricular activities also build into the weekly schedule, allowing students to explore their interests beyond academics.
Additionally, our academic year includes special events, guest lectures, and community engagement projects, enriching the student experience and ensuring a well-rounded education. The schedule at Excel Public School is carefully crafted to promote academic excellence and the overall well-being of our students.
Excel Public School is affiliated with the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE), New Delhi, and follows the educational programme as suggested/recommended by it.
Instructional strategy at EPS focuses on building skills in all the intelligences, based on the theory of ‘Multiple Intelligences’. Importance is given to learning through presented with authentic issues to explore, students are encouraged to inquire, take risks, share their ideas and stretch to new levels of performance. The educational programme at EPS is expected create self-directed, self-motivated and passionate learners, who would be sensible, sensitive and socially responsible at all times, and prove themselves to be an asset to the society, the nation and the world at large.

Curriculum at the Foundational Stage
The Foundational Stage encompasses a crucial phase in a child’s learning journey. Special attention is paid to making sure that children enjoy every aspect of schooling in their formative years. This stage prioritizes flexible, multi-level, play-based, activity-based, and discovery-based learning, integrating the latest research in early childhood care and education.
Children typically build upon their existing learning experiences from home and/or previous schooling. At Excel Public School, we facilitate their learning through well-planned and stimulating play-based approaches that foster their interests, curiosity, and creativity.
In accordance with the NEP 2020, we have introduced the ‘Foundational Stage’ within our formal school system. This initiative allows us to establish a foundation school that offers a holistic, fun-filled, stress-free, and child-centered learning experience for our early learners (Pre-KG, Kindergarten, Grades 1 and 2). The significance of early childhood education cannot be overstated, as these years profoundly impact a child’s lifelong growth, development, and overall well-being. Therefore, EFS strives to provide a balanced and comprehensive foundational curriculum that lays the groundwork for students’ academic success in higher grades, as well as their emotional well-being in all relationships.
