Morning Assembly
Morning assembly is a very important part of school culture. By assembling students and teachers in one space before the start of the school day, morning assembly is a powerful way to instill discipline and also to set a joyful and focused tone for the day. Our morning assembly includes prayers, information of latest happenings, inspiring thoughts, speech, national anthem. A good school is always particular about their morning assembly schedule.
Student Council
Student councils are a great way for students to take on leadership roles and solve problems of student community. The student council helps share ideas, interests, and concerns with teachers and school principals. They often also help raise funds for school-wise activities, including social events, community projects, helping people in need and school reform. A council actively works with teachers and advisors to promote a better learning environment.
Spell Bee
A transnational educational organisation that has revolutionised the way English is being taught. Applying our unique learning model, we have devised an ingenious way to impart English language skills in the form of 3 rounds of Spell Bee Inter-School Competition.
Contestants, apart from learning the spellings of 100 words, they also learn their forms, correct pronunciation, meanings, other related forms synonyms, antonyms and word usage in sentences ensuring the holistic understanding and application of the words learned.

Educational Trips
Inside the classroom, a student gets to know about new things, new ideas, and new concepts, while outside the classroom, a student explores and experiences. At Pratham School we’ve been awarded the Quality Badge by the Council for Learning Outside the Classroom (LOtC) and we’re pretty proud of it! An educational tour away from the comfort of school and home fosters independence, leadership skills, and communication skills.
Teachers Training
Teachers play a pivotal role in the process of child’s development and learning. The teachers are given training at the beginning of Academic year. They undergo curriculum workshops and empowerment sessions. Every teacher has the freedom to choose the way of teaching. These training sessions help the teachers with required guidance. In a way, we are nurturing creativity in our teachers, to be passed on to our students eventually.
