 Curriculum Multiple Intelligence Learning

Springdays follows the globally
accepted and most sought after CBSE
curriculum.
The CBSE board provides a well-
standardised syllabus and framework
for the children to thrive and flourish
in. Springdays complements the
CBSE curriculum with its ‘Multiple
Intelligence Learning’ methodology
that provides an education as unique
as your child is.
Howard Gardner’s famous ‘Theory of Multiple Intelligence’ suggests
that every child has seven types of intelligences with varying affinity
to each of them. They are logical, verbal, musical, spatial, kinesthetics,
interpersonal and intra-personal intelligences. A child thinks, learns
and applies better when the teaching method aligns with the intelli-
gence that he is strong in. At Springdays, our teaching methodology
is based on activities that combine these intelligences in a unique
way that will enable every child to understand and learn to their
fullest potential. This learning methodology is best imparted in early
childhood developmental stage.
Springdays has a distinguished curriculum team that is responsible
for constantly refining and upgrading the education imparted at
every stage of education.

Medium of Instruction

English is the medium of instruction. Tamil, Hindi and French are offered as second languages at primary and secondary school
level.

Kindergarten (LKG & UKG)

For many children, Springdays will be their first formal socialising experience with the outside world. With that in mind, the cur-
riculum imparted at this stage is made hospitable, enjoyable and yet coherently challenging. With adjoining gardens, play areas
and attached toilets, the little children can enjoy the learning process in safe and secure spaces. ‘Multiple Intelligence Learning’
methodology ensures that the child’s freedom of thought, inquisitiveness and desire for learning are kept alive. Springdays facul-
ty is qualified and well-trained in imparting education through kindergarten methods.
Primary School (Grade I to V)

As a natural transition to primary schooling, our curriculum adapts the Multiple Intelligence Curriculum into an investigative and
inquiry-based learning programme and sustains the child’s interest in learning. When conventional subjects like mathematics,
sciences and social studies are taught using this philosophy, it gives the child solid fundamentals to build his or her future. These
subjects together with languages, computer science, arts and extra-curriculars are imparted by well-qualified teachers.

Secondary School (Grade VI to VIII)

Secondary schooling is an important stage in a child’s development when his or her seamless energy must be channeled into
productive areas of development. The school extends its curriculum to focus more on inter-disciplinary and life-oriented skills
like critical thinking, problem solving, global awareness and time management. This school is particular about the right level of
rigour for academic and non-academic activities keeping in mind the over-all development of the child.

Competitive Exams

Optional in-house coaching will be offered for Olympiads, NTSE, Foundation classes for Medical and Engineering courses, IIT /
NEET through Springdays’ associate institute MasterJEE Academy, a highly reputed competitive exams coaching institute with
centres across India and the Middle East. MasterJEE is also founded and managed by Mr Rajendiran, Correspondent of Spring-
days School, Vellore (http://www.masterjee.org/)

Connected Parents

Springdays also plans to introduce a mobile app that parents can install on their smartphones to receive real-time updates on
their child’s activities, lessons conducted, extra-curricular activities, exam schedules, notifications and newsletters. This will help
parents to easily monitor and stay connected with their child’s schooling.

Infrastructure
Ensconced in the pristine
splendour of 8 acres of verdant
woods and occupying 125000
sq.ft. in stages, Springdays is a
living testimony to the nascent
concept of ‘Green Buildings’. In
its first stage, Springdays will
occupy 50000 sq.ft comprising
classrooms, interaction spaces,
cafeteria, courtyards, assembly
area and labs.
Specially architected classrooms
Spacious classrooms, each resting on 850 sq.ft. of floor space, with
airy ventilation and thorough natural lighting have been designed
to create the right ambience for research and study. The building
expands tree-like with overhanging classrooms and large green
areas for out-door, co-curricular and extra-curricular activities. All
classrooms have specially designed furniture, adjustable to the
height of the child, that aid good posture while sitting long hours
in class.
Multi-purpose Auditorium
A proposed auditorium with 800 seats along with a multipurpose
hall and three separate courtyards shall serve as spaces to conduct
lectures or workshops.
Well- equipped Labs
Six state-of-the-art laboratories for Physics, Chemistry, Mathemat-
ics, Biology, Social Studies and English, and special ICT (Informa-
tion and Communications Technology) labs will be at the disposal
of the students for practical research. The labs are provided with
the latest equipments and will be upgraded periodically to help
the children have an enriching experience. These labs, with
accessible safety exits, are located on the ground floor and are
provided with ample lighting and ventilation on either side.

Universally accessible Design

All floors and all spaces of the school have incorporated ramps thus making the whole school universally accessible.

Architected for the hot summers

Planting of roof gardens on all terraces shall bring down the temperature of the classrooms substantially during the long
summers. Doubly-shaded corridors with well-appointed benches will form cool and comfortable interaction spaces for the
children. Three integrated green courtyards with enough shade from overhanging buildings and greenery shall provide
ample play areas for children. A well planned-out landscape with varied flora, water fountains, well-supplied seating and
discreet play areas will attract birds and butterflies creating a beautiful environment for growth and joy. True to its name,
Springdays will keep its children in an ‘Eternal Spring’.

21st century.

Learning Support
Springdays recognises that there are children who need additional support for academic learning but are gifted with
other unique talents. To encourage such prodigious talent explore their maximum potential, we have specialist teachers
at both the Primary and Secondary levels.
Physical Education and Sports
Physical education is an important component of leading a healthy lifestyle. It helps the children maintain fitness,
strength and improved co-ordination of motor skills. Sports activities additionally teach the children team-playing,
leadership and communication skills thereby enhancing their over-all self-esteem. The school houses well-laid-out
play fields for football, cricket, basketball, tennis courts and a 200 mts running track.

The Annual Sports Day, to be conducted by the school, intends to generate house spirit and healthy sportsmanship
through inter-house sports events and competitions. For indoor games, facilities for carom, chess, table-tennis, and
badminton will be provided. Professional coaches will also be employed to impart intensive training in all the above
mentioned sports.

Our Faculty
Springdays School is not only committed to imparting great education but also to becoming a model of excellence in
teaching methodologies and curriculum. We choose our faculty through a rigorous process of recruitment and invest
in their continuous development to maintain a high calibre of education. Our academic and non-academic staff share
the core-values of Springdays i.e., child-first prioritization, high quality, honesty, respect, integrity, open-mindedness
and trust.

Student Counselling
An in-house counsellor is always available for assisting any child needing academic, non-academic, behavioural or
developmental guidance.

Medical care
The school proposes to have a supporting infirmary with two on-duty nurses. The infirmary will be well-supplied with
first aid and primary medical care equipment and medications to attend to minor ailments of the children.

Cafeteria
The school cafeteria stretches out on 6000 sq.ft. of dining area and 900 sq.ft.of kitchen space. Understanding the
quintessential aspects of sound health and a balanced diet, plans are in the offing to provide highly nutritious lunch
and snacks for the children. This will presumably be a huge relief to working parents.

School Library cum Book Club

A well-read man is an indispensable asset to society. The school proposes a massive library that will be updated with
newer additions of classics, reference books, journals and bestsellers with each passing year. We aim to match the
highest library standards of the country. Reading clubs are part of the curriculum from Kindergarten onwards to incul-
cate the habit of reading from a young age.
