TAURIAN WORLD SCHOOL

Nestled in one of the greenest suburbs of Ranchi, Taurian World School, is a highly progressive and enterprising world school committed to providing quality education with great emphasis on traditional values. With a beautiful 45 acre, pollution free, eco-friendly campus away from the chaos of the city, TWS is re-inventing education by breaking old moulds of thought. This progressive thinking has led to progressive teaching methods and has brought about a tremendous change in how our students learn. Taurian World School is the brain child of Mr. Amith Bajla, an alumnus of the globally renowned London School of Economics and IIM Ahmedabad. Since the launch of TWS, Mr. Bajla has nurtured an administrative and management team which manages TWS with clockwork precision while employing globally benchmarked liberal pedagogies and child-friendly education system.

Nurturing Habits of the Mind

The students of Taurian World School are encouraged to develop the habits of mind through joyful learning experiences. To that end, school offers a broad, rich and challenging curriculum. Academic offerings build on the strength of traditional disciplines, yet, integrate easily with a broad exposure to the liberal arts like theatre, dance, drama, singing, art & craft, designing, multimedia, sports activities and selective opportunities to pursue individual interests through innovative programmes and club activities. Here at TWS, every effort is made to provide challenging classroom experiences designed to encourage curiosity, self-expression, joy and aesthetic sensibility. Our classes are small and facilitators encourage individual students to participate actively in discussions, to collaborate creatively to solve problems, to communicate their ideas effectively, and to learn from each other.

The curriculum at Taurian World School can be demanding, but the culture of the school is also caring and supportive. Students build enduring bonds with their peers and facilitators. A strong sense of community characterizes the school, one which is bound together through the pursuit of learning and growth. Extra help outside of the classroom is an important element of the school culture as teachers recognize their students’ individual needs and learning styles. We believe that students learn best when they can trust in their teachers’ kindness and understanding and when the classroom is a place for all questions and ideas. The underlying philosophy of multiple intelligences is evident in the curriculum as it weaves its way through inter curricular links. What to teach and how to teach are the two most important decisions the faculty makes. TWS has always viewed programme evaluation as an important on-going activity in the school to ensure effective delivery of the academic plan inside the classroom. Curriculum revision has always been orchestrated by departments or by individual teachers under the opinions and guidance of expert educators.

Innovative Teaching Learning - A True Learning Community

We define ourselves as a community of learning, one that educates students from diverse backgrounds to a full measure of their talents and individuality. Together, we seek to foster the courage to live and think as distinct individuals who embrace their responsibilities in the larger world. We expose every student to the deep satisfaction that drives from service to others. We also try to enlarge the education experience to include the creative joy & aesthetic sensibility of the artist, and the vitality & competitive spirit of the athlete. We develop in our young minds the habits of mind of scholars as the foundation for a lifelong love of learning apart from nurturing the development of character to leading a purposeful life.

Student Academic Support System (SASS) at Taurian World School has two distinct objectives: first, to provide academic support for students and second, to provide a resource for faculty as they work with multiple learning styles and individual needs in the classroom. The SASS provides support to students identified by the teacher inside the classroom. For this a support process is in place, which includes student, parents, teacher, expert advisor who is generally a psychologist, and the Academic Support Team for the development of a swift and appropriate plan of action for each student. The cornerstone of our referral process is communication among all parties involved with the student. The support program offers a variety of academic services peer learning, one-on-one specialized classes, and small group instructions. The program strives to develop each student’s ability by establishing a solid foundation in key academic areas.

Routines & Recreation at the Residential Wing at TWS

The Residential Wing at Taurian World School is one that bustles with life and energy. The school is home to many students from diverse cultures, and it is this diversity is what makes life at the residence a unique experience for the boarders, who thrive in a close-knit community of friends and mentor-facilitators. The physical training in the morning and the evening study are perhaps one of the most distinctive hallmarks of life in a residential school. In TWS these routines have been reinvented and infused with meaning and purpose. The morning routine is a time to get off to a fresh start, to rejuvenate and reorient our students to face a new day. Mealtimes at TWS are a time for bonding and friendship, and catching up with peers. The evening time is made special by meditation session where our students find it both calming and relaxing. The session is a much needed pause in an otherwise busy day. Post-dinner our students typically unwind in the recreation area in the club room, choosing from games such as table-tennis, chess and other indoor games such as darts, carroms and other board games. They are also provided with access to the cyber lab to meet their internet needs and connect to the online world. TV as well as Reading time are also immensely popular with our residential students.

Guided Study

One of the most enriching aspects of life in the residence is the evening study time in which students have guided study sessions under the able instruction of our experienced residential teachers, who make every effort to give each child individual attention and help them work on areas they may find challenging. Our students make the best use of these study hours and use them to propel themselves towards their academic goals.

Experiences & Events @ TWS Boarding

With an extensive line-up of activities and events, no two days in the residence are alike. Besides regular outings for lunches and films, our students also enjoy a year-round series of workshops on ‘Creative and Critical Thinking’. The sessions conducted are on a host of topics such as short story writing, improvisational theatre, image and film analysis, philosophical thought experiments, alternative poetry, creating and illustrating flipbooks, origami and craft. Personality Development Workshops are also conducted from time to time. Our students are also challenged to grow their talents and abilities through intra-group events and competitions. These include sporting events like football, basketball, volleyball, cricket, cross country and athletics. As a home away from home, the residents also celebrate national and regional festivals with great gusto and festive spirit. Regular boarders meets, parent visits and outings also add colour and meaning to the life of boarders.

As our students learn, how to manipulate the ceramic clay, they also realize that their minds can be powerful tools too. Their ne motor skills get better, as working with clay requires hand-eye coordination.

 

Organic Farm

It is important for our students to eat well, get plenty of sleep and plan some quiet time each week to ensure they are well-organized for school and co-curricular commitments. Morning and evening meals generally are enjoyed in the Dining Room where the students catch up with staff after a busy day. Our chefs and services team play an important role in ensuring the kids have plenty of fresh food daily. Some Features of our Organic Farm are Drip-Irrigation system of Galcon. It is a bypass type Fertijet machine; Fertijet is designed to inject nutrients into the irrigation water pipe with high accuracy, by a set of venturi type fertilizer injectors, along with EC & pH control. Students of our school do organic farming by themselves. Students also get involved in the nursery in polyhouse, sowing seeds, irrigation and use organic manures for plants. The students themselves prepare Jeevamrut which is considered to be an excellent source of natural carbon; biomass, Nitrogen, Phosphorous, Potassium and lot of other micro nutrients required for the crops. In our Farm we produce various vegetables such as Carrot, Papaya, Cabbage, Cauliflower, Green Pea and Capsicum which are rich sources of nutrients.

Any feed that is made from green crop like legume crop, grass crops, cereals crops or tree based crops is called green fodder. Green fodder cultivation cut the cost of feed. Fodders are made into silage and we used them in long time. This gives much nutrition to animals. Apart from this we also grow Napier Grass, Baby corn, Genera, Barshim, Oats, Green Gram, Green Pea Leaf, and Azolla.

Dairy Farm

At Taurian we have our own Dairy Farm where we have 55 healthy cows. An in house Veterinary Doctor takes care of them. He prescribes proper diet for the cows so that the milk obtained is nutritious. He checks proper cleaning and whether the feed given to each cow is in proper way and in balanced quantity. The feed given to cows are green fodder which is grown in our very own Organic farm. Organic Milk produced from natural cows plays a signicant part in a child's growth. It strengthens and protects the body and mind to live a fuller, more complete life each day. It is a well known fact that milk is a good source of vitamin D and calcium. Fresh and pure Dairy cow milk is also perfect to balance a child's meal or their snack. From the Organic Milk, we also produce Dairy foods like cheese, yogurt, buttermilk, cream, ghee, khoya and much more dairy products.Our Cows are grass fed and have good content of omega-3 fats which is a good form of cholesterol for the body which helps in improving the heart health and also prevents any cardiovascular conditions.
