The last two years of schooling are typically synonymous with academic pressure, stressful deadlines and intense competition. However, at Sanskriti, we provide our 11th graders and intermediate students with a wholesome, holistic school life that enables them to achieve their academic goals without impacting their overall wellbeing. Here’s a glimpse into what a day in the life of an 11th grader at Sanskriti looks like:
1. Spacious, Well-Equipped Classrooms
Our classrooms are spacious, airy and well-ventilated, with multimedia projectors, smart boards, and modern furnishing that makes studying a comfortable experience. Lecturers make use of tools and technologies that enhance the learning experience by making it more interactive, engaging, and effective.
A smaller student-teacher ratio ensures that every student has the chance to raise questions and get queries answered, and also makes it easier to manage the class.
2. State-Of-The-Art Laboratories
Our system of education is futuristic and multidisciplinary, aiming to prepare students for a successful career in science as well as other fields. Apart from our Wifi-enabled computer labs and well-equipped science labs for physics, chemistry and biology, we also have laboratories for STEM and robotics!
Our STEM and Robotics labs integrate Mechanical, Electrical, Electronics and Control Engineering, along with Maths and Science. This makes learning fun, creative, and inspiring, and gives students a headstart in preparing for their careers by providing practical hands-on experience.
3. Incubation Centres for Vocational Training
At Sanskriti, we give great importance to vocational training and skill development, encouraging students to dabble in pursuits that equip them with meaningful skills and make them career-ready. We have a dedicated incubation centre for all students from grade 9 and above, wherein we offer a variety of vocational courses, such as food technology, textile science and automobile engineering.
Sanskriti is the only school/junior college in India to offer Skill Courses with certifications that can give students an advantage in the job market. Opting for vocational training makes students adaptable and disciplined, along with giving them hands-on experience of the professional world. These courses can also help provide students (especially those in STEM) with clarity about the career they would like to pursue in the future.
4. V Think Big- Sanskriti’s Entrepreneurial Startup
Sanskriti students don’t wait for opportunities- they create their own! Our entrepreneurial wing, V Think Big, was founded upon this principle. Started with the aim of making its members job-ready and independent, V Think Big already has two student-run manufacturing units- one for pens and the other for eco-friendly incense sticks!
By taking an active part in the manufacturing process of these products, students get in-depth insight into how a real-life work setting would operate. Getting practical experience also helps them gain clarity about their domain of interest, and the career path they would like to follow in the future.
Our young entrepreneurs are currently involved in planning new initiatives and manufacturing units, with a focused emphasis on long-term sustainability.
5. Complimentary Meals and Cafeteria
A healthy body is the key to a calm and focused mind. At Sanskriti, we use fresh vegetables and fruits sourced from our in-house organic garden to prepare tasty and nutritious meals for all students. We also make an effort to incorporate healthy alternatives such as ragi or jowar in our menu, along with seasonal fruit juices.
Quite often, the importance of rest is overlooked, especially when it comes to students who work hard the entire day. Socialising with peers and spending time with friends is a major part of school life- and our cafeteria is a spot meant for students to relax, unwind and recharge their batteries.
6. Play Area and Indoor Gaming
Unlike other institutes that limit playgrounds to younger children, Sanskriti has designated play areas even for 11th graders and intermediate students! Apart from our sporting grounds and outdoor courts, they can also access the play area when they want to step out for a break.
Our indoor gaming section has a number of mentally stimulating games for students to enjoy and bond over, such as carrom and chess. A fine balance of indoor and outdoor activities helps divert their mind from any stress that they might be facing, making the process of preparing for competitive exams and board exams less daunting.
7. Extensive Library
On many occasions, students need an atmosphere of tranquility and silence to focus on their tasks, especially after engaging in numerous activities that are highly stimulating and chaotic. To ensure that students get a quiet space for their studies, we have a large library on campus.
Our library is stocked with over 8000+ volumes of books, covering a vast spread of topics and subjects. Apart from mandatory library periods, students can access the facility whenever required. The library is equipped with numerous desks and benches for the comfort of the students, where they can study for tests and work on projects or assignments.
8. Personalised, After-School Coaching from IIT Alumni
Sanskriti’s highly qualified and experienced faculty also includes graduates from IIT, NIT and other prestigious institutes, who can give IIT and NEET aspirants valuable knowledge of how to crack competitive exams. Students can attend personalised coaching sessions that are conducted in smaller batches for increased efficiency.
Apart from teaching the syllabus, teachers help students prepare for exams by making them understand paper patterns and giving valuable tips for better preparation. One-on-one doubt clearing sessions ensure that no student is left behind when it comes to getting their queries cleared.
Conclusion
The last few years of schooling are academically rigorous, setting the stage for a student’s higher studies and professional life. Sanskriti’s unique school system and vibrant campus life are centered around preparing students for a life beyond exams and ranks. While we provide our children all the resources and tools they need to succeed in studies, we also strive to give them practical exposure that gives them an edge in their careers. All this, and more, without compromising on their health or wellbeing.
