Keeping this in mind, we build each child’s language proficiency through special conversation modules and programmes which are run in our digital English Language Labs. At SHEMFORD, we ensure each child develops the right language and communication skills in all the areas of LSRW(Listening, Speaking, Reading & Writing) as opposed to just reading & writing in traditional schools.

Synergy - Our Parent Participation Programme

SYNERGY - Our special and unique parent participation programme, which helps us in nurturing our SHEMStars, is the brainchild of Mrs. Meenal Arora, whose subject of research in the University of Nottingham, UK, was on the 'Impact of Parental Participation on Students' Learning Outcome’. The word Synergy literally means ‘coming together of two distinct influences for a common purpose’. As a SHEMFORD parent, you shall be a part of Synergy and you will be invited to attend various parent participation programmes, including workshops, performances, parents and grandparents volunteering opportunities, etc. Attending programmes like these will not only enhance your parenting skills, but will also give you an opportunity to contribute towards building your child’s self-confidence & self esteem, as she feels loved and cared for. Further, attending Synergy Programmes results in bridging the communication gap between the home and the school. As a result, both work in tandem which ensures that our SHEMFORD stars are better understood and they receive a healthy and a positive environment both at school and at home.

Engaging Teaching Methods

Research has demonstrated that engaging students in the learning process increases their attention and focus, motivates them to practice higher-level critical thinking skills and promotes meaningful learning experiences. At SHEMFORD, a lot of importance is given to designing & implementation of teaching methods that engage the attention of the children in the learning process. We make the teaching-learning process an interesting and joyful experience wherein both teachers and children are involved. The children learn via interactive modules allowing their active participation in Group Discussions, Projects, Presentations, Quizzes, Games, Thinking Sessions, Role Plays, etc. These methods involve each student into the learning process thereby creating an environment where children come to school not because they have to, but because they want to.
