At MAHESHWARI GIRLS’ SCHOOL we offer the Indian Certificate of Secondary Education (ICSE) and Indian School Certificate (ISC) curriculum to our students. The uniqueness of this curriculum lies in the fact that it is specifically designed keeping the learning objectives laid down by the Council for Indian School Certificate Examinations (CISCE). The most critical element of our curriculum design is the student and what we want her to learn. Thus, the focal point of our curriculum is the learner’s needs and the relevance of the curriculum to meet those needs. Our curriculum framework is flexible and activity based and aids in strengthening the students essential understanding over the years.
The Montessori system, much in use world-wide, is known as the best form of pre- school engagement of children. The first six years of life are those when a human being enjoys the fastest brain development. This happens spontaneously and unobtrusively under three conditions:
Basic genetic endowment Least injunctive parents (less of don’ts into their ears), and Presence of what is known as the Montessori environment, fully satisfying the requirement of the absorbent mind to learn concentration in the first phase, control and co-ordination in the second phase and purposeful activity guided by the will in the third phase. By the time the child is five she will have dramatically transformed herself into an intellectually, sensorial and muscularly developed and balanced human being.
The Primary (Grades I to IV) – curriculum is tailor-made to cater to the different levels from and designed in such a way that it promotes conceptual learning and understanding, and also encourages critical inquiry. Our school curriculum focuses on building and deepening the understanding of students.

This cell works towards formative assessment giving each pupil the opportunity to perform better, with teachers acting as guides and mentors.
Parent-Teacher Partnership: It is our belief that education is best achieved when it involves a three-way process between the child, educator and parent. In keeping with this policy, the school maintains a channel of communication with the parents through regular counselling and interactive sessions, welcoming the parents to visit the school. Open House allows parents to engage in frank discussions with the Principal, Vice Principal, and teachers about their wards’ progress. It is only then the school and the parents understand and support each other that effective education can take place.
