OPPORTUNITIES AT MRIS-46
The philosophy of MRIS as stated in its purpose statement of MISSION VISSION is – ‘To ensure that all learners get equal opportunities to realize their full potential….’
Besides giving special emphasis on academic excellence, MRIS provides freedom and space for individual expression and exploring opportunities for personality and skill development. Especially, the most important years of a human life i.e. till the age of 10-11 years, are given utmost priority for all-round development.
While various inter-school competitions give opportunity to students to showcase their skills, intra -school competitions such as Clan competitions at various levels give them a platform to hone their skills. On one hand, where the school encourages students to participate in these competitions, on the other hand, the teachers guide and facilitate other students to tap their hidden potential. Different class-wise and grade-wise activities based on language development, speaking skills, visual art, music and dance, theatre etc. not only help children develop these skills but also provide an opportunity for self-expression.
Emphasis is given to incorporate activities based on differentiated learning while planning the syllabus, thus giving equal opportunity to all. While hands-on activities and research work help children to analyse and derive a solution to a given problem, Edu-trips provide an opportunity to examine the world and surroundings. Making self-learners is the motto of MRIS.
Makershala takes them into the world of technology while developing scientific temperament and provides them opportunities for new innovations. We believe that in Primary school giving them exposure to various sports the school has to offer will help them explore their own strengths for a particular sport.
We believe that this ‘Life is a stage’ and each one of us is performing on it. So, we also encourage full participation of our young learners during stage performances on Annual days, Theme-based Class Assemblies and Sports day. Soft skill development programmes, Community reach programmes and Annual projects provide children an opportunity to look at the future with a different perspective keeping human and moral values alive.
“Opportunities are in abundance ……. Go grab it!”
