Primary School
Primary: Grades 1 – 4 (Ages 5 to 9)
Billabong’s primary school program was developed to educate young learners in unique, creative, and contemporary ways. Our students are encouraged to adopt a scientific attitude, ask questions, and express themselves freely. Our goal is to teach them not what to think, but how to think. We provide well-designed opportunities and experiences to develop and fine-tune their literacy, numeracy, interpersonal skills, and creativity. The primary program also empowers young minds to build their personalities through self-discipline and self-confidence.
Middle & High School
Middle: Grades 5 – 8 (Ages 10 to 13) | High: Grades 9 – 12 (Ages 14 to 17)
Billabong’s commitment to fostering independent thinking in young minds has positioned us among India’s finest middle and higher secondary schools. Our curriculum emphasizes academic excellence, rational thinking, and innovative teaching methods, bolstered by a rich array of co-curricular and extracurricular activities. We aim to instill in our students a sense of responsibility, confidence, and thoughtfulness, preparing them to be future leaders. Our learning experiences are designed to be interesting, innovative, and creative, fostering a joyous and effective lifelong learning journey. Grounded in neuroscience, Bloom’s Taxonomy, and multiple intelligences, our teaching methods ensure that students develop a deep understanding of concepts. This commitment to providing a comprehensive and dynamic educational experience has made us a beacon of excellence, recognized both nationally and internationally.
Academic Curriculum
Our curriculum celebrates the diversity within our school and strives to create a nurturing environment with a strong, open and positive partnership between all stakeholders and the wider community. We endeavour to equip our children with the skills and attributes required to become respectful, proactive citizens in our international community that ensures well-being for all. At Billabong, we recognise the uniqueness of each child through a programme of learning that promotes challenge and personalised learning at all levels and by providing an enabling, inclusive environment which empowers all children to achieve. We encourage creative and critical thinking within the context of meaningful and stimulating experiences.
Teaching Methodology
One size doesn’t fit all, it is important to accommodate all individual learners, providing them opportunities to grow at their own pace and optimise their inherent potential.
Billabong is founded on the principles of the multiple intelligence theory, ensuring that each student experiences whole-brain learning without the limitations of conventional notions of intelligence. Our curriculum prioritizes real-life learning over rote memorization, engaging students with multiple intelligence, interdisciplinary themes, and Bloom’s Taxonomy. Our air-conditioned classrooms and smart boards facilitate interactive learning, fostering inquisitiveness and the acquisition of new skills and concepts. We follow a student-centered approach with varied activities that promote creativity, imagination, and critical thinking. As we enter the 21st century, our instructional design and neuroscience experts emphasize the need for dynamic, evolving learning patterns that address both societal and individual learner needs.
Teachers as Facilitators
Facilitators create environments in which students can learn fundamental concepts and develop the skills necessary for lifelong learning. They establish engaging, motivating, and supportive classrooms, leading, inspiring, and encouraging students throughout the learning process.
Parents as Partners
In our pursuit of holistic and collaborative learning, we collaborate closely with parents to ensure learning is effective, meaningful, and enjoyable. Partnering with parents not only keeps them informed of students' progress but also fosters a supportive environment for children.
Faculties
The school boasts of well qualified, competent and experienced teachers with years of teaching experience both in India and abroad. The faculty members are encouraged to upgrade their skills and update their knowledge on a regular basis. Besides, it is mandatory that the teachers undergo at least one training session in a year in areas such as teaching methodologies, use of technology in class and such related subjects. It is pertinent to place on record with gratitude the increased amount of workload the faculty members have taken on themselves to improve the academic standards of the school.
Evaluation Procedure
We have grading system for Assessments, Assignments,Tests and Projects. We have adapted Self correcting process as well. BHIS follows the CCE (Continuous Comprehensive Evaluation) Skill based Assessments & on paper assessment with both formative and summative assessments.
Our Point Of Differences
Learner centered rather than a teacher centred approach. Embracing multiple intelligence and diverse learning styles. A curriculum team that embraces the belief that curriculum must be “alive” and constantly evolving. A curriculum development team that works together to ensure that the modules are developed in a hands on way to accomplish the total learning goals in different subject areas. Ongoing professional development that ensures high standards of professional practice. A goal towards developing life skills. Limited number of students in a class to ensure individual support and guidance. All kinds of educational field trips and visits by guest speakers. Enhanced co-curriculum with an extensive extracurricular program.
Beyond Academics
Theme based special days, dress up days, events and field trips are organized on a regular basis. Special guests/visitors are also invited to interact with the students to help them recapitulate the topics taught in the class and have in-depth understanding of the themes/concepts.
