We Follow the Steps Towards Stress Free Education




 Stress or tension, has become an integral part of our daily life. A little bit of stress may be unavoidable and good too, for it would never allows us to be complacent in life. But too much of stress may be counterproductive and would in due course impair both our physical and mental health

It is the duty of parents and the schools to make education stress-free, school education is the first environment outside the home where a child learns to interact with others. Therefore, it is very important for the school environment to be as comfortable and friendly as possible. At Edify School franchise we follow 3C curriculum which helps the children to reduce the pressure of academics i their early years

Early childhood care and education equal onus on educators too..

EDUCATION TIDES

It is said that Abhimanyu, son of the great warrior, Arjun and who in death attained immortality, learnt the art of entering the "chakravyuha" which still in his mother's womb. It is my personal view that the age of Mahabharata was much more advanced than we are today, that they possessed even fusion weapons and that they had literally reached astronomical heights in exploring the universe. However, the intention of this article is not to establish such contentions but to get back to Abhimanyu's precociousness. That a mother's womb could very well be the place where a child's learning can begin is not without scientific support as even many modern researches have established an element of truth in such a possibility, in the same way School franchise could very well be the place where a child's learning can begin.

Whereas the Indian Government, rests the onus of education for 6 upwards, squarely on the education sector

The more one delves into the working of the human brain, the more it becomes mind boggling. There are "critical periods", "plasticity" and "sensitive periods" and what not that facilitate learning. There are theories and counter theories.But even to a layman, it is evident that language acquisition is in early childhood, when uninhibited the child learns the contextual usages and applies it with ease.

The counter theories always substantiate with exceptions to generalization. However, that one should catch them young cannot be ignored since it facilitates much easier learning in the later stages. The resistance is definitely increased beyond normal neuroplasticity periods. Also peer learning is a positive contributor in enhancing learning of abilities associated with sensitive periods"
