We Believe

At Study Hall We Believe That..... 'Children are unique, powerful, important persons, worthy of our respect. They have a right to enjoy their childhood, which is an important phase of their lives in itself and deserves to be understood respectfully rather than treated simply as a preparation for adulthood.'

  This is the key ethical organizing principle around which everything in our school is structured. Moreover, it had been the unfailing endeavour of the Study Hall family to communicate this to their children in everything that we do, so that our children emerge as secure individuals, having developed a sound sense of  self-worth, and a healthy respect for their own individuality.

  • Learning is intrinsically meaningful and enjoyable. Like all of us, children are natural learners with an innate curiosity, need and desire to make sense of themselves, other  people  and the world they find themselves in. 

In our school we understand "learning" developmentally and the kinds of "learning" we are trying to foster in the children under our care and.....

  • Learning to construct an integrated picture of reality, consisting of the world, ourselves and the others in it. 

  • Learning to order our experience, to reflect upon it critically, to describe it coherently, and to deal with it rationally and creatively. 

  • Learning to give expression to our own understanding of ourselves, others and our world.

  • Learning to think imaginatively and creatively and to develop the facility to express ourselves competently in the oral and written medium, both in English & Hindi.

  • Learning to learn i.e.. acquiring life long tools of learning  like reading-writing skills, numerical skills, gathering, analyzing and applying of information in meaningful and personally relevant ways, and good reasoning and thinking skills.

  • Most importantly, learning involves the release of our imagination, our "self", the development of an inquiring spirit, a caring, compassionate sensitivity and the development of the creative-expressive activity of our mind.

  • Learning to develop a sense of beauty and wonder about the world, hoping thereby to sensitize our mind to be ever responsive, joyful and alive.   

At Study Hall we endeavour to create a caring, stimulating, secure, warm and comforting environment and work towards making "school" a place which enables and helps children to learn.....a happy place and NOT a place where children need feel alienated, bored,hurt,persecuted or  threatened.

We believe firmly that children are not helped so much by competition as they are hampered and hurt by the pressures and anxiety generated by it. Competition is therefore discouraged in all it's manifestations in our school.
