Greetings Parents,
ePathshala CBSE School is launching its Day Boarding Program from the next Academic Session (2023-24). As a result School for Day Boarding Students, will run from Morning 8:30 am to Evening 5 pm. This decision has been made considering many factors such as

  • The loss of Academic Discipline in Students due to Covid Restrictions and School from Home.
  • Large increase in the usage of distracting activities like Smartphones and Internet by the student.
  • Toxic Coaching Culture in outside Tuition Classes that do not focus on Individual issues in Academics and is responsible for developing many bad habits in students.
    The loss of time and money of students and their parents by Tuition Classes which affects them academically and financially.

All the above issues will be corrected in our Day Boarding Program. It will give us enough time to teach, revise and practice some important topics for students. It will also give us an opportunity to develop our students academically, physically, mentally and spiritually. Our goal is to produce students who are physically strong, mentally sound, academically logical and spiritually knowledgeable. Please go through this prospectus to get a better idea of all the activities that we have planned for our day boarding students.

पालकांना नमस्कार,
ePathshala CBSE School पुढील शैक्षणिक सत्रापासून (2023-24) आपला “डे बोर्डिंग प्रोग्राम” सुरू करत आहे. परिणामी, डे बोर्डिंग विद्यार्थ्यांसाठी शाळा सकाळी 8:30 ते संध्याकाळी 5:00 वाजेपर्यंत चालेल. खाली दिलेल्या आशा अनेक बाबी लक्षात घेऊन हा निर्णय घेण्यात आला आहे. 

  • घरातून शाळा आणि कोविड निर्बंधांमुळे विद्यार्थ्यांमधील शैक्षणिक शिस्तीचे नुकसान.
  • विद्यार्थ्यांद्वारे स्मार्टफोन आणि इंटरनेट सारख्या विचलित करणार्‍या क्रियाकलापांच्या वापरात मोठी वाढ.
  • बाहेरील ट्यूशन क्लासेसमध्ये पेरण्यात आलेल्या विषारी कोचिंग कल्चर मुळे  विद्यार्थ्यांच्या शैक्षणिक क्षेत्रातील वैयक्तिक समस्यांवर लक्ष केंद्रित होत नाही आणि त्यामुळे त्यांच्यामध्ये अनेक वाईट सवयी विकसित होत आहेत.

वरील सर्व समस्या आमच्या डे बोर्डिंग प्रोग्राममध्ये दुरुस्त केल्या जातील. यामुळे आम्हाला विद्यार्थ्यांसाठी काही महत्त्वाचे विषय शिकवण्यासाठी, उजळणी करण्यासाठी आणि सराव करण्यासाठी पुरेसा वेळ मिळेल. यामुळे आम्हाला आमच्या विद्यार्थ्यांच्या शैक्षणिक, शारीरिक, मानसिक आणि आध्यात्मिक विकास करण्याची संधी मिळेल. शारीरिकदृष्ट्या मजबूत, मानसिकदृष्ट्या सुदृढ, शैक्षणिकदृष्ट्या सुदृढ आणि आध्यात्मिकदृष्ट्या ज्ञानी असे विद्यार्थी निर्माण करने हे आमचे ध्येय आहे. आमच्या डे बोर्डिंग विद्यार्थ्यांसाठी आम्ही नियोजित केलेल्या सर्व क्रियाकलापांची चांगली कल्पना मिळविण्यासाठी कृपया हे विवरणपत्र वाचा.

How are we Different?

  • Unlike the Regular Day Boarding Schools our focus is on how to install a Competitive edge among our students and develop their personality.
  • We also want our students to excel in any extra curricular activity they are interested in. It may be Sports, Dance, Music, Singing, Drawing or Painting etc.
  • An Atmosphere just focused on Academics is in fact harmful for students as it doesn’t teach them essential skills like how to cope with pressure of studies and expectations, how to be focused and disciplined etc.
  • A student who plays sports or performs dance and music or enjoys the process of making art is someone who can learn essential skills like sportsmanship, teamwork, focus, concentration and co-ordination which are very important for the overall development of the
    student.
  • Therefore in our Day Boarding Program we have dedicated classes for Competitive exam preparation, Communication and
    Public Speaking, Foreign Languages and Sports, Performing Arts and Fine Arts.
  • All these Classes will be taken by expert teachers and coaches that are hired especially for the Day Boarding Program.
  • For 9th and 10th Class the distribution of Academics and Skill Development is 80% Academics and 20% Skill Development.
  • For 8th Class it will be 60% Academics and 40% Skill Development.
  • For 5th, 6th and 7th the distribution will be 50% Academics and 50% Skill Development.
  • For Day Boarding Student the primary focus of Academics will be to prepare each and every Subject from a Competitive
    Exam point of view.
  • Other Coaching Classes will never guide or counsel you through each and
    every step that a student needs to take to
    achieve his or her ambition.
  • But we have the Expertise and Counsellors that can help you guide
    through every step of the way for you to achieve
    your dream.

Details of the Day Boarding Program

  • Our regular School is from 8:30 am to 2:30 pm which amounts to 6 hrs of school out of which around 1 hr 30 min is spent on assembly and breaks, thus effectively giving us 4 hrs 30 min for academics.
  • In our day boarding program school will be from 8:30 am to 5 pm giving us 8 hrs 30 min of school out of which 2 hrs will be spent on assembly and breaks giving us 6 hrs 30 min for academics and skills development.
  • Out of Sports, Performing Arts and Fine Arts student has to select just one of them.
  • At the start there will be an orientation period of 1 month where student will be allowed to get familiar with all the sports, performing arts and fine arts classes in the school.
  • But at the end of that 1 month he or she has to select just one of them on which they can fully commit themselves on.
  • We don’t want a student doing multiple things half-heartedly or playing sports just as a hobby.
  • We want them to learn any sports or arts in a professional and systematic way so that it may help them further in their career.
  • At the end of the day when student reaches home he or she won’t have any writing work or homework, they can spend that time with their parents and learn many important familial, cultural and social values from them.
  • The remaining time will be spent on reading, learning and self-study which will actually improve the academic performance and exam performance of students.

Competitive Exam Coaching & Improved Learning [C.E.C.I.L.] Program

  • Students will be trained and encouraged to participate in various sports competitions like DSO, inter-school championships, state and national level sports events etc.
  • Sports can teach students important skills like fairness, team building, equality, discipline, inclusion, resilience and respect.
  • External Coaches will also be hired for each of these Sports to guide our day boarding students.

Holistic Development

  • As we have specified many times here at ePathshala we give a huge amount of importance for the holistic development of a student
  • Holistic development means focusing on all aspects of a student’s growth, not just their academic advancements. It’s about establishing the student’s overall wellbeing.
  • So far we have talked about the physical, mental and intellectual growth of students.
  • Now let’s also talk about their social, emotional and spiritual growth.
  • To achieve these goals we are arranging many guest lectures on topics like adolescence, stress management, emotional wellbeing, nutrition, spirituality and workshops on various activities like Yoga, Pranayama, fitness, social responsibilities etc.
  • Above events will be organized and arranged for day boarding students keeping in mind to not interfere with their academics and skill development.

 

Hybrid Schooling and Hybrid Learning

  • As you know that we have a collection of Applications dedicated to make the life of Students, Parents and Teachers as hassle free as possible.
  • We have the e-Teach School Assist App and eTeach Student Assist App for Teacher and Student respectively.
  • Along with this we also have the eTeach e-Learning App for online Videos and notes of School Syllabus.
  • Now for Day Boarding Students we have developed another App called the eTeach Academy App which has the online videos, notes, worksheets and e-papers related to the enhanced syllabus of competitive exam
    coaching, Olympiad and JEE-NEET Foundation.
  • With this App student can read and revise any topic that has been taught in day boarding as well as attend the school online if in any case he or she misses the school due to health or some other reasons.
  • Thus due to our hybrid schooling and learning model we can make sure that there will no loss in the studies of students in case they are unable to attend the school.

A Note to Parents and Students

  • Our Day Boarding Program is designed to improve the overall development of each and every student.
  • It is far cheaper than admitting your child to any tuition class, sports club, dance or music club.
  • In regards to outside tuition classes either the teachers are under qualified, the topics taught in school and tuition classes clash with each other or there is no time for homework & personal attention.
  • All these problem are avoided in our day boarding program with well qualified and trained teachers that will always be in co-ordination with the subject teacher who knows and understands each and every student personally.
  • As most of the homework and playing or engaging in personal hobby like music, dance or fine arts will be done in day boarding only, it will give students enough time to self-study which will actually improve their academic performance.
  • Thus we request each and every parent to opt for our day boarding program for the maximum
    academic, physical, mental and spiritual development of your child.
