Mainadevi Bajaj International School

MBIS believe that children can and will make a difference when they have a stimulating atmosphere to evolve into perceptive thinkers, confident communicators, and compassionate and caring individuals. Therefore, the emphasis at MBIS is on helping them explore the world in delightful ways to become enthusiastic learners and blossom into great human beings. Our primary goal is to help all our children achieve their full potential. We strive to develop every student into a holistic individual through various academic, physical, cultural and spiritual engagements. To achieve this goal, we realize that our children must be equipped to think and act analytically, get innovative in their responses and develop a strong understanding of their history and traditions as well as their place in the global environment. It is our endeavour to make the world a better place by nurturing our students to become global ambassadors. Parents are an integral part of the MBIS community and it is their immense trust and confidence that inspires us to nurture the talent in our students. We thank them for their support in making a difference in our student’s lives. MBIS was ranked No 1 among all International Schools in Zone D and has been ranked as the 5th best International School in Mumbai as per the Times School Survey 2020. MBIS was felicitated amongst Asia’s 100 Best & Fastest Growing Private Institutes at the WCRC Leaders Asian Education Excellence Summit & Awards, held on January 9, 2014, in New Delhi.

Class Room:

THE LEARNING ENVIRONMENT

Since MBIS aims at providing high-quality experiential education to every child, the context within which learning occurs is of great significance. A classroom needs to be a happy and happening place.

At MBIS every classroom has a public address system, display and writing boards, interactive smart-boards, custom made furniture, a provision for broadband internet connection and air conditioning.

The physical environment is in keeping with the age group of the class it caters to. Lockers are provided to students of the senior school for storage of books and other learning material so that they don’t have to carry a heavy bag to school.

The classes are spacious so that there is enough room to move around and do group activities, play games and have fun as well learn without running into each other.

Language Room:

The Language Room is a multi-functional classroom that accommodates appropriate equipment, organized and easily accessible resources that satisfy the student’s diverse needs and interests and facilitate the teacher’s work. It is useful as a mini-lab for listening and speaking activities as well as to record IOPs (Internal Oral Presentations).

Library:

At MBIS, we believe that the library is an all-encompassing, forthcoming and proactive learning area. Most educational centres use their library for curriculum support, but that would limit its profile. Delivered effectively and used to its potential, the library can play a constructive role in moulding the personality of a student. Our librarian works closely with teachers on curriculum support, especially with the Unit of Inquiry. Presently we have a collection of over 9000 items which includes books, DVDs and other audio-visual material, flashcards etc. The collections include books for every age group in the appropriate formats from cloth books, board books, flap books, pop-up books catering to all age groups.

Laboratories:

Practical work is the most important factor in the study of science. MBIS provides independent and very well-equipped laboratories for Physics, Chemistry and Biology. The laboratories are up-to-date, equipped with audiovisual teaching aids, learning kits and the best apparatus for conducting experiments as per the requirements for the International curriculums offered at the school. Each lab has a demonstration table with a workstation for the teacher, an interactive smartboard and an LCD projector.

Enough space to accommodate students at a stretch with an uncompromising adherence to safety specifications and they are well maintained to provide a hygienic environment for the students. All labs are equipped with customized furniture to enhance the learning experiences of our budding scientists.

Biology lab: has a unique collection of charts, 3D models, slides and specimens, microscopes, full-size skeleton to cater to the needs of the syllabus of each class.

ICT Lab:

DIGITAL LITERACY @ MBIS

Digital Literacy requires critical thinking skills, an awareness of the necessary standards of behaviour expected in online environments and an understanding of the shared social issues created by digital technologies.

The ICT lab is a multipurpose technology and collaborative workspace located at MBIS where we focus on developing the digital skills of our students through Basic Computer Literacy, the Ability to Backup, Experience of Online Project work and Social Networking skills.

In order to nurture the creativity of the students at an early age, we introduce ICT at the Junior KG level progressing up to Grade 12.

To make sure that the students are equipped with the right digital skills, every grade has a pre-defined ICT curriculum which the child has to master by the time she completes that academic year.

Knowledge of Basic and Advanced features of the Drawing Application, Document Production, Data Analysis, Data Manipulation, Presentations and Website Authoring are the key features of the Middle and High School curriculum.

Online research skills are crucial for students at the IBDP level. Besides understanding how to use search engines, identify legitimate resources, fact–check information and citing online sources in papers is emphasized through digital as well as social networking skills. After all, these virtual classroom etiquettes help the child beyond high school.

IB Lounge

MBIS has an air-conditioned lounge especially for IBDP students that is equipped with modern furniture and Wi-Fi connectivity. The lounge also serves as an extension counter of our Library as it is equipped with books that cater to IB diploma requirements. Students can use this facility as and when they are not having any lectures as per their timetable. The space provides the most appropriate ambience to be engaged in independent learning. The library assistant is always present in the lounge.

Art Room:

THE HEART OF CREATIVITY

The Art Room at MBIS fosters the creative and intellectual development of the students through quality visual arts programs, facilitated by the arts faculty.

The art room drives each child to be curious and original in their work while they study a variety of Art forms such as 2d, 3d Art and installations by exploring mediums like acrylic, charcoal, water, dry pastels, oil pastels, pencil colouring, clay, wires, Papier Mache etc.

The periods in the Art Room offer each child a learning experience that teaches him or her to be a risk-taker, thinker, inquirer and a good communicator in a safe environment.
