INTRODUCTION

In order to develop and demonstrate the efficacy of creative learning methods and new teaching methodology and to make an active and effective intervention in the education system, a school has been opened in the name of School of Creative Learning at Patna (India) since 1997. This school was started on the basis of discussions among persons interested in the field of education regarding current school system, where it was felt that creative learning must be made part and parcel of school education. It would be a model school for action research in the field of creative education.

The school is located in a new integrated school complex in Nargada Village near Danapur.

Since creativity has to be nursed right from early childhood, the school caters to the creative urge of children in the age group of 3-14 years. In order to ensure that the learners should ultimately be able to fit into the main stream of the formal system, the school follows syllabus prescribed by CBSE. However, creative learning and teaching technique is being adopted. Gradually, more and more inputs on creativity would be infused. It has also adopted a Unique system of learner's evaluation.

OBJECTIVE

• To assist children in developing their talent in the best possible manner.

• To teach children up to class XII on CBSE pattern.

• To prepare the students to live their lives successfully by developing their creative talent in their own learning style.

• To make the students capable of facing challenges of life efficiently and carve out their own future.

• To impart education by creative teaching techniques

• To help the students to develop a scientific temper to explore the mysteries of life with world around.

• To provide an environment conducive for bearing right values and eschew glories of our culture.

• To inculcate the spirit of service and cooperation among the students.

• To promote physical and mental development with a knack for team work, fair play, justice and healthy competition.

The school would also cater to the needs of talented children of rural areas. Talented children from rural educational centers would be brought to the school. For this purpose a hostel is proposed to be opened at the school premises. 2 acres of land has already been acquired at Nargada, Danapur, Patna. A full fledged School Campus is being developed and constructed here. See the details of the new project here. The construction work has started at the site.
