Principal's Message……

Dear Readers,

In a quality school such as Indian School Muscat which essentially aims in the service and the reconstruction of the community with a basic component of academic development of its children a warm iconic climate is set to pursue pedagogic superiority. In such an environment, its children, the parents, the educators and community members all come together. Lot of giving and receiving takes place in a learning environment which accords full and mutual respect to each other. Our school is primarily responsible for setting  a caring environment, continuously work on an exemplary and  successful teaching  learning, extra-curricular and  co-curricular  practices with a decision - making model, which provides an identity for each child. Thus I believe ISM becomes a transforming place with improved goals, accountability at all levels and instructional facilities. This needs a climate of trust, collaborative framework not only at school but with parental involvement beyond school,  to derive benefits for successful transformation of the child.

 This transformation helps the child to move into an intimate zone with the school climate supported by the teaching community. This further creates circles of confidence and self articulation  within the child. The child learns to engage in a  dialogue and working together. With the emergence of globalization dilution of boundaries is taking place and today’s world calls for partnerships and alliance, technological cooperation, interdependence, cohabitation, coexistence, collaboration etc. Therefore a global school system must enable the child to live together in mutual empowerment and create common good for the humanity on the basis of shared values , respecting the child and the teacher and  thus strengthening , as well as preserving the best of national cultures within the immediate biosphere that exists in this part of the world. An excellent and a caring school system such as ISM and its educators recognize the challenges of closer involvement in educating the child in macro and the micro linkages to the demands of credible global curriculum such as CBSE with possible linkages to and exchanges with other curricular practices worldwide.

 Such an approach involves aspects of a quality thinking school enabling to provide a comprehensive package of academic , extra-curricular and co-curricular programmes which focuses on finest classroom practices to bring out the best needed skills in its students, such as, thinking skills, speaking skills,  writing skills , computing skills. More importantly to train children to  develop love for learning .Thus they  will be able to display their talents in Universities and Colleges and stand tall  as an activist of thought in a competitive  global scenario. Associated in the process of quality education are  to make the pupils responsible in their abilities, learn aspects of  life building, man-making, leadership, character-development and assimilation of ideas in a climate of care , which leads to what is known as  holistic education.

 The Indian School Muscat aims to provide  exactly what is  outlined above with high expectations from its students, its parents and its staff alike, with the vision of serving the child in this transformation process.  All three of us have to work towards this unified goal.

 To us  every child is unique, and he is to be respected and loved for his/her uniqueness .We have a  common mission to work with commitment and dedication coupled with increased professional skill and shared responsibilities in grooming students in our care into a strong holistic person who, by excelling in academics, in co-curricular activities, in technology  will be able to grow up to assume responsive leadership roles with a human face and  a global outlook , thus contributing  to the world of humanity.

 We pray Almighty Lord to help us achieve this collective goal of empowerment of  our children..
