Dear Parents and Students,
As the Principal of DIS of Delhi International School Dwarka Sector 23, it is my pleasure to welcome you to our school’s website and I thank you for taking the time to visit it.
The learning and development of the children in our care are at the heart of everything that we do. We ensure high-quality education which motivates and empowers our students to be critical thinkers and lifelong learners thereby making them productive members of society. Success for all students is ensured at our school by the delivery of an enriching, student-centred, balanced and structured curriculum. We look forward to developing an education system that nurtures critical thinkers by encouraging questioning and leading to innovation.
We firmly believe in the dictum of the Quote: “Where a Team Works, Dream Works” hence we consider consistently working together to address each student’s specific needs both academically and socially.
Working in partnership – with the school, learners, teachers and parents, we will be able to take DIS to the next highest level of excellence. Our continued association will ensure that our learners are progressing and becoming global heads with noble hearts.
My commitment to our community is to lead the school with full integrity and zeal to enable us to reach our goals, making teaching and learning both meaningful and joyful. Let us make every moment count in the lives of our learners with the intention to make our best, better each day.
My Philosophy of education is to empower the students in various spheres of life to embrace the challenges that they might face in the future. Thus, students should be imparted with the skill set to pave their path in a complex and constantly evolving future. The super skills that will give them an edge over others are creativity, critical thinking, problem-solving and decision-making.
The best way to deliver these skills is to make the content relevant to the learners. Transmission and rote learning will lead to a lack of interest that in turn will cause a decline in motivation. Designing some innovative activities and being creative can improve the scores and immerse the learners, aiding them in their learning journey.
Students should be encouraged to ask questions and appreciated to raise queries. When students get curious, we are instilling in them a passion for learning. This also assists in bridging the learning gap(s) and providing opportunities to reflect and re-think on their previous thinking. It will undoubtedly boosts confidence in the learners and in turn enable them to take the onus of their own learning.
Motivating them by asking open ended questions, keeping in mind to acknowledge and accept number of responses will further lead to inquiry and analysis. Using ‘Thinking Routines’ to provide a framework for the students to engage them in their learning by making connections, thinking critically and exploring possibilities will indeed help.
Extending constructive, specific feedback and allowing the learners to reflect is crucial in the journey. Knowledge will be added and multiplied when dialogues and discussions are open and each individual is tolerant to accept the other’s view point and then reflect, generating opportunities of metacognition, assisting them to find solutions that will eventually help in correct decision making to uplift the teaching and learning and above all make it joyful.
Let us all work together towards developing global citizens with noble hearts fulfilling the commitment to a lifelong learning with the power of education.
Wishing you success and well-being!
Ms. Shruti Sharma
Principal of DIS
Home is an important grooming ground, of school and childhood. It is the most crucial period for learning. In order to achieve the all round development of the child, maximum cooperation between the parents and school authorities is needed.
With a mission to create an inspiring ambience from home to school, parents are updated about the development of the child and his needs through special counselling sessions, an intensive regimen of circulars and diaries and Parent Teacher meetings.
Parents receive a progress report of their wards at the end of each semester. They are encouraged to meet and interact with the faculty during PTMs and motivate their wards to achieve higher levels of performance.
Each child is blessed with their exceptional potential and intelligence. The role of education is to encourage self-realization and DIS has created a unique environment to provide the right stimuli to encourage learning through the joys of exploration... thus making students take the first right step towards a great future!
Delhi International School is a place where pupils learn faster and learn more since learning is accelerated. We work on them without any form of bias. Our learning programme intellectually engages, inspires and spurs academic achievement.
DIS extends opportunities to its students to reflect on their day's experience and creates an environment to enhance their academic performance.
Education is the prime equipment of having a bright future with great knowledge and skills for students. Thus, to deliver the proper knowledge and skills, Delhi International School follows a seven point programme to build a bright future for the young student community.
