Talent Development
We believe that all children have inherent potential. We identify the specific skills of each child and help them to derive motivation from within and from the environment. Children are provided an environment where they gain positive influences from the surroundings, peers, parents and the teachers.
It is important to help children identify their abilities early in life so their full potential can be realised. It is a gradual process from kindergarten to middle school. We encourage children to be creative and provide an environment where they can express themselves and feel inspired from within.
Talents are divided in 4 major domains:
Academic or intellectual abilities : Development of language skills such as poetry or writing, mathematical abilities, scientific abilities- space programs, robotics, inventions & projects, forensic Artistic or sciences, scientific skills etc.
Creative abilities : Developing artistic skills like Dance, music- instrumental or vocal (western or Indian), drama, photography, drawing/painting, sculpture, etc.
Physical abilities : Sports such as athletics, field games, judo/karate, skating, etc.
Social Abilities : Focus is on abilities which children use in their daily interactions with classmates, teachers, and Parents, development of other qualities such as leadership , problem solving abilities, interpersonal communication etc.
All stakeholders in The Shemrock School, i.e. teachers, parents and the students themselves, play an important role in identifying and channelising the talent of the child in the right direction.
