- Teaching Methodology:
-
Education aims to unearth our critical thinking skills so that we can better understand our environment and make decisions that will make the world a better place to live. At Bombay Scottish School, we aim to make students collaborators and stakeholders in their own learning. The workshops introduced teachers to research-based pedagogical tools that focus on the process of questioning as well as active learning. Teaching methodology is built on the characteristics of good questions and the different techniques that can be used to involve learners in questioning. We also integrate active learning in the classroom. The goal is to create an enthusiasm to learn independently because when a child is involved in the learning process, he/she remembers longer and more effectively

78 well-ventilated classrooms with good lighting through windows. Every classroom contains comfortable and flexible seating. Every classroom has bulletin boards that showcase learning. There is adequate space in each classroom to accomodate about 30-35 students. Activity rooms for hands-on learning are also present.
