PRIMARY SCHOOL PROGRAMME

“THE ONLY PERSON WHO IS EDUCATED IS THE ONE WHO HAS LEARNED HOW TO LEARN …AND CHANGE.”

– Carl Rogers

MBIS, follows the Cambridge Primary Programme (CPP) and encompasses Grades 1 to 5. At MBIS, which is an Mainadevi Bajaj International School follows the Cambridge Primary Programme (CPP) and encompasses Grades 1 to 5. We believe that being able to talk, read, and write literature along with a solid understanding of functional mathematics in the primary section is essential. Our desire for Academics+ in the primary section includes high expectations of both the appreciation and achievement in art, music, drama and sport. The integration of assessment with teaching and learning in literacy and numeracy, in particular, is well developed by the teachers of MBIS.

Our faculty ensures this by encouraging students to have mixed abilities and to work together by promoting small group or whole class activities. The students develop self-confidence through verbally expressing their ideas and responding to others which also helps in enhancing their communication and critical thinking skills, which are vital throughout life.

Solving mathematical puzzles, conducting scientific experiments and acting out short drama sketches during culminations are just a few examples of how learning is incorporated into classroom lessons.

At MBIS, an international primary school in Mumbai, our students appear for the Cambridge Primary Checkpoint which is designed to help students learn by providing comprehensive feedback on their strengths and weaknesses in key curriculum areas like English, Mathematics, and Science.

  • Our faculty devises a thought-provoking line of inquiry for every unit
  • The lines of inquiry inspire students to think for themselves
  • Students learn to frame relevant questions
  • All of this leads to appropriate research and develops problem-solving skills in children
  • The outcome is a deeper understanding of the world around us
  • The inquiry culminates in students being able to articulate their understanding during formative assessments as well as during Inquiry Fairs
