Faculty

We, at IIS have well dedicated and qualified teachers for

  • Creating a clean, bright and cheerful environment for the tiny tots. 
  • Using interactive method of teaching based on multiple intelligence
  • Being more as a facilitator rather than an instructor
    The teachers here are hand-picked  for their skills,  gentle understanding and compassionate nature, besides a proven track record of handling children from age two to age five.

IIS, recognizes the importance of quality teaching supported by a spirited environment that encourage students to question, debate and discuss relevant subjects freely and with an open mind, thereby helping them build confidence in their own abilities.

We strongly believe and work on the principle of independent thinking and learning.  Towards this, our highly qualified faculty gies each of these young adults enough breadth of vision to develop their long-term academic goals and career choices.


Projects & Field Trips

The purpose of education is to teach a student how to live his life-by developing his mind and equipping him to deal with reality. The training he needs is theoretical, i.e., conceptual. He has to be taught to think, to understand, to integrate and to prove. He has to be taught the essentials of the knowledge discovered in the past-and he has to be equipped to acquire further knowledge by his own effort. Along with the theoretical knowledge that he acquires, practical knowledge too is important in the overall development of the child.

William Butler Yeats has rightly said, “Education is not the filling of a pail, but the lighting of a 
Fire.We at I.I.S. want to see the children in pursuit of knowledge and this we try to accomplish by the hands on theory in the form of field trips.  Field trips are a valuable learning experience which helps children in visually seeing, what they actually learn in the classrooms.

We at I.I.S. look for a holistic development in the children, both in the classrooms and outside. Field trips are a part of the curriculum in itself. Trips are organised both for educating and entertaining. Children are taken for field trips once every quarter.

"It is not how much you do, but how much love you put in the doing."
We at I.I.S. believe in the intergration of all the senses. To strengthen this ideology we emphasise Field Trips.
