There are a number of schools in the National Capital Region of India which has around 35 districts all the way from Muzaffarnagar to Alwar in Rajasthan. So how does one choose the best high school in the region?
Location:
I would start by looking at the location at first in terms of ease of transportation, environmental effects, and civil administration levels in terms of quality of living. Among the districts of NCR, Noida is quite a successful spot for many international schools and high schools and is also home to families across diversified social strata.Â
Schools here administer various curricula and methods of teaching with state-of-the-art facilities. It is a garden of growth and development with 50% green cover that is a big deal considering that the Delhi region has been rated as one of the most polluted locales in the country.
In my view, the best schools are in Noida, be it high school or international schools in Noida. In particular, GIIS (Global Indian International School) is pretty well regarded. Here are a few reasons why it is so –
Multiple Campuses Around the World
GIIS has multiple campuses across Singapore, the UAE, Japan, Malaysia, Thailand and Vietnam. The brand has an entirety of 20+ campuses all over. Its level of education can challenge not just any other international school in Noida, but also in the world. GIIS’s ideals of holistic education for its students is award-winning and is based on a mixed form of education as a base for the students, moving alongside a variety of non-academics and cocurricular activities to help turn students into all-rounders.
Skill Enhancement
At GIIS, students learn how to enhance and improve their skills and talents. The alumni of GIIS has students who have got admissions into major universities across the world.
9 Gems Framework
GIIS also has its own award-winning personal 9GEMS (TM) holistic framework which is for students to improve themselves in all possible ways. Those 9GEMS, namely Academic Excellence, sports excellence, visual and performing arts, personality development, innovation and creativity, entrepreneurship and leadership, universal values and ethics, community care and skill development proves that their vision is to make sure students are well rounded beyond simply academics.
Unique Learning Programmes
GIIS has unique programmes right from the start. For example, a Global Montessori Plus Programme for nursery pupils in which the teachers for the nursery sessions are specifically trained and nurtured.
World Class Facilities
An ideal school like this has a bunch of amenities like smart classrooms, skating rink, Britannica knowledge centre and indoor and outdoor sports facilities, library and a music room among other things. GIIS accepts the outlook that hands-on learning is highly effective, so it often arranges field trips to promote the practical aspect of learning.
Due to the factors above, GIIS proves to be a model school that exercises its own methods in order to stand out from the strict modus operandi of legacy schools. Such new schools do not inhibit experimental and experiential learning, instead they encourage it. They welcome students who are bold enough to look beyond the borders of academics. They assist students in personality development and career development. India has had more experience with theoretical learning than an experience learning and this is how schools like GIIS are making a difference.
Knowledge is permanent, it can never be lost. Hence initial learning is important because you never truly unlearn things. Thus, we need to be aware of how much of it we consume, and in what manner.
Schools of today, prepare us to look for the kind of knowledge and the right way in which it is absorbed
