What we believe, and what we work towards
The ideas behind how PCIS teaches, from Playgroup to Class X.
Small enough to care, large enough to inspire.
We encourage, challenge and support every pupil to do their very best.
Academic success is celebrated alongside personal growth. At the heart of the school are happy, confident young people with high hopes for themselves, a strong sense of right and wrong, and the determination to succeed.
At Pakistan Central Ideal School, we believe that:
- The student's best interests come first in every decision we make.
- Children are naturally curious, and learn best through a curriculum built on asking questions and finding out.
- Teaching should follow Gardner's theory of multiple intelligences: creative, varied, challenging and well planned, so each child can learn in the ways that suit them.
- Students' learning should be celebrated at every opportunity.
- Parents, children and the school work together as partners in a child's learning.
- Children need practical strategies for the academic and social challenges they will meet at each stage of life.
- Children thrive when they feel safe, happy, valued and respected.
