Institutional Aspirations & Ambitions and how are they anchored into the Integral Indic Ethos…
MM School is an institution that focuses on developing the necessary skills and attitude required in the present century.
As a school, we firmly believe that education should be for life, not just for a living. Education should serve to not only develop one’s intelligence and skills, but also broaden one’s outlook and make a person useful to the society.
An invigorating value based learning experience which incorporates the concept of Multiple Intelligence awaits our students at MM. The school boldly embraces technology as an integral part of academic practices and creates a benchmark in technology enabled learning experience. They also learn about cultures, customs and religions of other people in order to appreciate the universal oneness and human values that are essential for the development of character.
Adroit Action & Advancement which Transcended the Applicant Institution from Tryst with Destiny to Triumph
At MM School children join a community of learners in which each will have a place to belong and a way to contribute in his or her own individual way. Each child has a unique pattern of growth and development. Our educators are responsive to individual differences in ability and interest. A range of levels of development, learning style and intelligence among children are expected and are also used to design experience for learning. Integrated lessons are included in every lesson plan to imbibe moral values along with curriculum.
Our curriculum enables students to establish links between the topics, themselves and the “real world”. As students often become deeply engaged with special interests and pursuits, they will have new opportunities to share their growing skills and understanding. Children’s are able to discuss their growth & develop leadership qualities. A strong emphasis is placed on developing an understanding of strengths, areas of growth and building confidence.
We believe that this is the time of self-exploration, self-discovery and understanding of “Who I am and who I can be”.
Our teachers are regularly trained by CBSE empanelled trainers.

What all makes your Futuristic Educational Institution RESILIENT for FUTURE?
For many children, the past year brought disruption on a grand scale, with the pandemic affecting virtually every aspect of their daily lives. It is clear that educators play an essential role in helping children develop the determination and ability to persevere through difficult circumstances in school and life—this year, and anytime. Resilience is not a genetic trait. It is derived from the ways that children learn to think and act when faced with obstacles large and small.

Establish by way of various examples, as to how EQUITY is practised and inculcated at your
Futuristic Educational Institution?
Equity in education means that personal or social circumstances such as gender, ethnic origin or family background, are not obstacles to achieving educational potential and that all individuals reach at least a basic minimum level of skills. We practice equity in each level of our school functioning system.
What all makes your Futuristic Educational Institution INCLUSIVE? Substantiate with Evidences to this effect.
Inclusive education is about ensuring access to quality education for all students by effectively meeting their diverse needs in a way that is responsive, accepting, respectful and supportive. Students participate in the education program in a common learning environment with support to diminish and remove barriers and obstacles that may lead to exclusion.
Inclusive education is carried out in a common learning environment; that is, an educational setting where students from different backgrounds and with different abilities learn together in an inclusive environment. Common learning environments are used for the majority of the students’ regular instruction hours and may include classrooms, libraries, gym, performance theatres, music rooms, cafeterias, playgrounds and the local community. A common learning environment is not a place where students with intellectual disabilities or other special needs learn in isolation from their peers.
Effective common learning environments:
Enable each student to fully participate in the learning environment that is designed for all students and is shared with peers in the chosen educational setting;
Provide a positive climate, promote a sense of belonging and ensure student progress toward appropriate personal, social, emotional and academic goals;
Are responsive to individual learning needs by providing sufficient levels of support and applying student-centered teaching practices and principles.

Present a Note on the Institutional SEC (Socio-Economic-Cultural Background) Diversity…
Socio-economic diversity is an important part of every educational institution because it enhances the learning environment and promotes mutual respect and teamwork. Students in a diverse setting are prepared to become good citizens in a complex and pluralistic society. t has become more important than ever to have socio-economic diversity in school campuses as it provides ample opportunities for students to learn and grow.
Socio-economic diversity in institutes matters significantly to them as it aids in producing positive education outcomes for students with diverse backgrounds. A study was published in 2002 which found that the interactions that peers have with other racial groups improved their learning outcomes tremendously. It means that socio-economic diversity directly helps students, making them better intellectuals, thinkers, and citizens. This type of diversity helps peers in having enhanced self-motivation, critical thinking, writing, intellectual and cultural engagement, etc.
How does the Institution Enable & Empower People having Physical, Mental or Other Learning Difficulties or Special Needs within its establishment?
In the popular mind, special needs are usually identified with very low expectations. Parent should believe in the value of educating children with special needs. The higher the expectations, the higher will be their acceptance in the family.
All the children with special needs must be enrolled in primary schools. After the assessment of their disabilities by a team of a doctor, a psychologist, and a special educator, in schools, the child will be placed in appropriate educational settings. Children with mild and moderate disabilities of any kind may be integrated in normal schools, severe in special schools/ remedial schools, drop outs who have problems in availing benefits of normal schools can join open schools. All the children with learning disabilities alone are first managed in the normal schools. Open and special schools also offer vocational courses also for children with disabilities.

Lifelong learning does not necessarily have to restrict itself to informal learning, however. It is best described as being voluntary with the purpose of achieving personal fulfillment. The means to achieve this could result in informal or formal education.
Whether pursuing personal interests and passions or chasing professional ambitions, lifelong learning can help us to achieve personal fulfillment and satisfaction.
It recognizes that humans have a natural drive to explore, learn and grow and encourages us to improve our own quality of life and sense of self-worth by paying attention to the ideas and goals that inspire us.

Present the Institutional Philosophy & Approach towards Foundational Learning…
Foundational learning is exactly what it sounds like – the foundations of a child’s education. It refers to basic literacy, numeracy, and transferable skills, that are the building blocks for a life of learning. The early years (0 to 8 years) are the most significant period of growth and development in a child’s life because this is when the foundations are laid for holistic development and all learning. Children who participate in quality early childhood education programme demonstrate considerable gains in social, educational and intellectual spheres, distinctively different from those who do not participate in ECCE programmes. Strong foundations in the early years has lasting impact on children’s development and are considered to be critical inputs in improving the enrolment and participation of children in formal schooling.
How is your Institution catering to the cause of Affordable & Accessible Technological Ecosystems & Learning Resources, including in Local Languages.
There are so many things to consider when introducing technology into the classroom. But one of the most important should be the people who are going to be leading from the front, and using the technology day-to-day.
Without the buy-in mentality of the teachers, technology vision of an institution will fall flat on its face. It doesn’t matter if our student base is (as is expected of their generation) totally tech savvy – if our teaching staff can’t use it effectively , the initiative will be wasted. But it’s easier said than done. Just how do we encourage and motivate teachers to use technology? We train them periodically. Frequent and goals-focused training is vital to any teacher’s success, and when it comes to technology, it’s even more important.
Through what all Conventional & Creative Interventions is the Centrality of Teachers & Education Staff is maintained & augmented?
We believe in empowering the teachers and education staff members in our school. We consider the he role of principal is crucial for improving teacher management and teacher motivation and ultimately for improving learning outcomes for girls and boys.
Management of education has many dimensions, but the biggest investment of funds and human resources has always been and should always be in teachers.
The quality of teacher training dictates the quality of teaching. Moves to reduce the length and quality of pre-service teacher training to cut costs and meet the demand are damaging the quality of teaching and learning.
Gender and inclusion should be addressed in teacher management and training systems: to ensure that there are a representative number of positive role models for girls, boys, children with disabilities and those from other excluded groups; so that teachers enjoy equal pay and conditions; and so that girls and so called ‘hard to reach’ children have a better chance of improved learning outcomes.
What kind of an Investment Plan exists at your institution for Human Capital Development?
It is important for a school to focus on human capital development planning to prepare the children with the 21st century skills. Principles of development of human potential namely:
Teaching a child’s education based on the maturity level of mind and the body.
Integrating concept and application in curriculum planning.
Give career guidance session to the students from an early age.
CPD programmes for the teachers and staff.
Enumerate the various Collaborative Solutions & Innovations undertaken at your Institution for Human Capital Development.
