International School of The Year -2021

Separator
Not very long ago, school education was limited mainly to classrooms,books, black boards and written exams. Teaching in school classrooms was predominantly a one- way communication route, rote learning was considered the best way for students to internalize what they learnt and having a great memory was key to doing well in the exams. Teachers and students were content with a learning system that was largely unidimensional, unilingual or at the most bilingual and stunted with multiple cultural barriers.

A radical shift in education happened with the advent of globalization. Phenomenal advancement of technology led to a dynamic compression of space and time that brought nations, cultures and economies across the world closer to one another. This change in the global cultural ethos had a huge impact on human interaction, understanding, thought exchange, business paradigms and international job opportunities that eventually led to the liberalization of education. The practice of teaching international curriculum in schools started in the latter half of the twentieth century to bridge the gaps in education as a result of globalization.
