Education is not the filling of a pail, but the lighting of a fire.” – William Butler Yeats

At Prarambhika, education goes beyond books and classrooms. We are committed to the holistic development of our students, nurturing their intellectual, emotional, physical, and creative growth. Our aim is to empower every child to discover their unique potential and contribute meaningfully to the world around them.

We believe that true education is rooted in values. We emphasize integrity, respect, empathy, and responsibility, instilling in our students a strong moral compass to navigate life’s challenges. Our curriculum integrates academic excellence with co-curricular activities, fostering critical thinking, creativity, and collaboration.

Holistic development is at the core of our philosophy. Through sports, arts, community service, and experiential learning, we cultivate life skills such as resilience, leadership, and teamwork. We encourage our students to explore their passions, think independently, and make informed choices.

In an ever-changing world, we prepare our students not just to adapt but to lead. Inspired by the words of Mahatma Gandhi, “Be the change that you wish to see in the world,” we strive to create responsible global citizens who are ready to make a positive impact.

Together, as educators, parents, and learners, we aim to create a nurturing and stimulating environment where excellence thrives and dreams are realized.

Warm regards,

Knowledge

Knowledge is defined as remembering of previously learned material. This may involve the recall of a wide range of material, from specific facts to complete theories, but all that is required is the bringing to mind of the appropriate information. Knowledge represents the lowest level of learning outcomes in the cognitive domain.

Comprehension

Comprehension is defined as the ability to grasp the meaning of material. This may be shown by translating material from one form to another (words to numbers), by interpreting material (explaining or summarizing), and by estimating furture trends (predicting consequences or effects). These learning outcomes go one step beyond the simple remembering of material, and represent the lowest level of understanding.

Apply

Application refers to the ability to use learned material in new and concrete situations. This may include the application of such things as rules, methods, concepts, principles, laws, and theories. Learning outcomes in this area require a higher level of understanding than those under comprehension.

Analyse

Analysis refers to the ability to break down material into its component parts so that its organizational structure may be understood. This may include the identification of the parts, analysis of the relationships between parts, and recognition of the organizational principles involved. Learning outcomes here represent a higher intellectual level than comprehension and application becasue they require an understanding of both the content and the structural form of the material.

Evaluate

Evaluation is concerned with the ability to judge the value of material (statement, novel, poem, research report) for a given purpose. The judgements are to be based on definite criteria. These may be internal criteria (organization) or external criteria (relevance to the purpose) and the student may determine the criteria or be given them. Learning outcomes in this area are highest in the cognitive hierarchy because they contain elements of all the other categories, plus conscious value judgements based on clearly defined criteria.
