About:

The beginning of the new academic session is a time for reviewing our achievements and setting goals for the future. The students and teachers of the Kendriya Vidyalayas have achieved excellence in all fields and I have no doubt that they are ready and well equipped to accept new challenges and bring glory to their institution. To strive for perfection through hard work and sincere efforts should be our constant endeavour.

It gives me immense pleasure to share with you the tremendous success of our children at the class X and XII examinations. There has been a significant improvement in the result of class XII-2012 examinations. The overall increase in the number of students who have successfully cleared the examinations is 0.73% more as compared to last year. Moreover, the number of students securing above 90%, 75% and 60% marks is at an all time high. For this I would especially like to congratulate the teachers of the Kendriya Vidyalayas who have given unstinted support to the children of their schools by mentoring them and grooming them to take their place in the world. KVS is striving to ensure that our children become truly world class by providing libraries, computing and other educational and recreational facilities thereby enriching the learning experience of our vidyalayas.

PRIMARY EDUCATION

Kendriya Vidyalaya Sangathan had set up a task force in 1994 to suggest a specific course of action for the strengthening of Primary Education in the Kendriya Vidyalaya. This Committee made some recommendations with an emphasis on joyful learning through an activity base approach. Accordingly the K V S has adopted the activity based approach for teaching at the Primary level, together with a system of grades for assessing the child’s performance. The aim of assessment is to improve the child’s capability rather enforcing retention in the same class.

To ensure a smooth transition from the home environment to the Primary school, a 'School Readiness Programme' of 6 weeks duration has been developed and adopted. At the end of the programme the teacher may assess if the desired behavioral outcome has been achieved in the following areas .

1. Recognition of the environment

2. Confidence

3. Observation

4. Pattern copying

5. Correlation

6. Classification

7. Sequential arrangement

8. Expression

9. Understanding

10. Creative Skills

Strengthening Of Primary Education

In pursuance to the recommendations of the Yashpal Committee, the School Readiness Programme for 6 to 8 weeks and the activity-based approach for teaching and grading system for assessing the performance of children have been adopted. The grading is for improving the competency and skill of the child rather than detaining the child in the same class. A five-point scale has been adopted for classes I to V. A handbook on School Readiness programme and handbooks for PRTs for classes I to V have been published to provide the required orientation for Principals and teachers.

Pre-Primary Education

A scheme of Pre-Primary classes on self-financing basis was started in 50 Kendriya Vidyalayas in the year 2000-2001. However, all Kendriya Vidyalayas having three or more sections in each class have noe been allowed to introduce upto two sections of the pre-primary on self financing basis, provided there is a demand from category 1st parents and infrastructure is available with the Vidyalaya. Its salient features are :-

1. The Vidyalaya will spare one class room of suitable size on the ground floor.

2. A development fee of Rs. 400/- per child per month will be charged.

3. Admission will be granted as per the priority categories applicable for Class I

4. Class-strength should be between 20 to 25 only.

5. Age of the child should be four years as on Ist April. The upper age limit is 5 years.

6. Duration of the class will be 4 hours and will be conducted 5 days a week.

7. A Nursery trained teacher and an Aaya will be engaged on part-time basis. At present pre-primary education is implemented in 166 Kendriya Vidyalayas.
