Creativity is as important now in education as literacy

Middle School is a pre-cursor to High School life, where the student works closely with the teacher on his/her strengths and weakness.

The most important goal during Middle School years is to develop a regular study routine, habit and work on the overall development of the child’s attitude. The Middle School follows the CBSE curriculum and components issued by the NCERT.

In the words of Ken Robinson-“Creativity is as important now in education as literacy and we should treat it with the same status.”
