Academics

At EFS, our instructional strategy focuses on developing skills across all multiple intelligences, based on the theory of 'Multiple Intelligences'. We emphasize learning through authentic problem-solving, encouraging students to inquire, take risks, share their ideas, and strive for new levels of performance. The educational program at EFS aims to cultivate self-directed, self-motivated, and passionate learners who demonstrate sensibility, sensitivity, and social responsibility at all times. We envision our students becoming valuable assets to society, the nation, and the world at large.

Our blended learning methodology fosters the holistic development of students and caters to varying learning abilities, styles, and paces. Our teachers provide personalized instruction tailored to meet the needs of every student at all levels.

Our Kindergarten is a unique place where attention is paid to make sure that the children enjoy every aspect of schooling in their formative years. Special attention and care is taken to ensure the physical and emotional safety of the tiny tots. There are no homework, formal tests and examinations at the Kindergarten level. The periodical assessment of the various faculties of the children is made in an informal way and special efforts are made to remediate the areas where improvement is required. Special attention and care is taken to ensure developmental gains to the tiny tots in areas of verbal and non-verbal skills, structural knowledge, short term and long-term memory, manual dexterity, problem solving ability, abstraction and analytical and conceptual skills. For the overall development of the tiny tots, regular assessment will be made on the following areas:

Physical Development
Language Development
Motor Development
Intellectual Development
Emotional Development
Participation and Group Involvement
Personal and Social Development
