Educational philosophy & curriculum

Our educational philosophy

Our philosophy is to make learning interesting.

We believe that seeking knowledge is a lifelong process, and all children are capable of learning independently when provided with the right setting. As a famous CBSE school where many young budding talents study, we believe that learning can be made into an interesting endeavor by providing a supportive and conscientious atmosphere of mentoring.

Skills, abilities and knowledge are developed by engaging in experiential, collaborative and inquiry-based learning. Learning is further facilitated by simulations such as environment, nature, people, technology, artefacts, and travel experience. Teachers are facilitators and mentors who inspire, guide and empower students in developing skills and abilities to build their future.

Teaching approach

Pride, Memories & Milestones at Babaji Vidhyashram

Welcome to a school where learning fuels curiosity, where students understand the world by experiencing it, and where they learn skills by putting them into practice.Teachers are passionate about learning alongside their students and help students discover their interests. Students are encouraged to collaborate with each other, construct with their hands and create using tools. Foundational skills take hold so that students can shine in years to come. Friendships are made and nurtured.

The curriculum at Babaji Vidhyashram is based on the CBSE syllabus and is supported by our comprehensive liberal arts & technology-driven education. The school’s commitment to providing an international perspective is reflected in the curriculum, extensive service opportunities, and extracurricular activities. We encourage students with different learning styles, interests, and personal strengths.

Curriculum

Our curriculum offers a structured approach to teaching core subjects, with a major emphasis on the development of language, writing, and arithmetic skills. Science, social studies, wellness, music, dance, theatre, technology & design thinking, and library & research skills are also integrated into the curriculum.

Our teaching approach is underpinned by a collective desire for consistently high standards and greater articulation of curricular goals across grades. We follow a concept-based approach to imparting knowledge. Students are encouraged to take up challenges and apply these concepts, thereby enabling them to become independent learners. Opportunities are provided to go beyond the textbooks. Developing a deeper connection to everyday life is constantly encouraged.

Curriculum

Early years (Foundational Stage)

The early years of a child’s development provide the foundation for lifelong learning. At Babaji Vidhyashram, we have crafted a program that blends “play” and “structured learning” — promoting curiosity as well as the development of independence.
Holistic development
Each activity has been purposely designed — to enhance elements of cognitive, social, emotional, and physical development.
Creative exploration
Children will uncover many opportunities for creative exploration — whether in art, music, or storytelling — and learn to communicate their ideas and thoughts while using their imagination and creativity.
Hands-on learning
Children will learn through simple experiments, construction games, and engaging in tactile activities — to help promote problem-solving and critical thinking at a young age.
Values & life skills
Our programs — role play, interactive stories, and group activities — begin to form the basis for understanding concepts (empathy, sharing, and teamwork).

This nurturing phase will ensure that children will transition to the more formal phase of learning with confidence and enjoyment.

Primary & Middle School (Preparatory Stage)

As students progress, the preparatory stage bridges “foundational knowledge” with “application-oriented learning”. Our approach focuses on strengthening core subjects while developing essential life skills.
Concept-to-application learning
Projects, experiments, and field trips — to help children connect what they study in classrooms to real-world contexts.
Communication & collaboration
Group discussions, debates, and presentations — to sharpen interpersonal and leadership skills.
Technology integration
Digital labs and guided internet use — to prepare students for safe and meaningful engagement with technology.
Cultural & creative exposure
Drama, art, and music programs — to encourage students to express themselves while appreciating diverse perspectives.
Problem-solving mindset
Math labs, science fairs, and inquiry-driven tasks — to train children to think critically and explore multiple solutions.
This stage equips students with resilience, adaptability, and the ability to approach challenges with curiosity and confidence.

High school (Secondary Stage)

The secondary stage focuses on refining academic rigour, preparing students for higher education, and shaping them into responsible global citizens.
Focused mentorship
Small class sizes — to ensure personalised attention, mentoring, and targeted guidance for each student.
Strong academic foundation
Emphasis on clarity of concepts in Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics, and Biology — to prepare students for competitive exams like NEET, IIT-JEE, and beyond.
Future-ready skills
Courses in entrepreneurship, digital literacy, and research methodology — to give students an edge in a rapidly evolving world.
Career guidance & counselling
Regular sessions — to help students make informed academic and career choices aligned with their interests and strengths.
Beyond academics
Leadership programs, community service initiatives, and co-curricular clubs — to cultivate empathy, confidence, and social responsibility.
By the end of this stage, students are well-prepared to enter premier universities and succeed in their chosen career paths with clarity and purpose.
Virtual Learning

Utilising technology

Students are taught to harness technology as a powerful tool to aid research & lifelong learning. A specialised design thinking curriculum is integrated into all grade levels through primary, middle and high school. The curriculum brings together our faculty from various streams - IT, Robotics, Art, Craft, and Photography to teach children to identify problems, brainstorm solutions, build prototypes and publish solutions.

Field trips

At Babaji Vidhyashram, education extends far beyond textbooks — our thoughtfully planned field trips provide students with hands-on exposure to history, culture, science, and nature. Watch our students explore, discover, and learn through these enriching journeys.
