Coaching for National Open School curriculum

Recognizing and respecting the differences in the Learning Pattern is an important aspect of teaching. Children with a learning problem when they reach age 14 and continue to have 'problems' in learning will find it difficult to cope with the regular syllabus of the Secondary Educational programme, be it the State Syllabus, ICSE or CBSE because the load of the curriculum is very heavy and vast. The National Open School helps such students to complete their secondary education by reducing their burden. They are permitted to take two subjects at a time in an interval of 8 months or 6 months.

Vidya Niketan School, Hebbal has a special section for these students who are given special coaching for the National Open School curriculum. The results have been very encouraging. As the intakes in these sections are limited parents who are interested in this programme could contact the school office as early as possible to avoid disappointment for admission. Call the school at: 23331531 or send a mail to vnshebal@vsnl.com
