JBCN International School - Oshiwara

At JBCN International, we aim to provide learners with 360-degree learning, where the academic learning is complemented by infrastructure, a strong co–curricular program which includes sports, theatre and creative art, leadership opportunities in different fields and assessment that truly serves as feedback of learning rather than just testing. The events and special days at JBCN enhance the skills that the learners are introduced to in their classrooms, music, dance, art rooms and the sports field. The celebrations give them a chance to explore and excel in different fields and activities. Some years we have a theatre carnival - which uses the available spaces to showcase theatre going beyond a conventional auditorium; Jamboree - which allows learners to explore a myriad of activities and many more. At JBCN, we believe that learning is continuous and lifelong - whether for board members, teachers or learners.

When the learners join us in the pre-primary years they need a lot of pastoral care. The teachers being versatile take on myriad roles during the school day. They are their mothers, their guides through their early learning journey and their inspiration. The little ones come home so often saying,” But my teacher said I shouldn’t do this or my teacher said I should eat this.” Which is why at JBCN we ensure that our pre-primary teachers are maternal, fun loving and capable of multi-tasking. The pre-primary years are the formative years of a child’s life. Most research shows that learners develop their personality traits by the time they are 7 years old, our programme and nurturing environment ensure that the children have a sense of security; belonging and most importantly develop a thirst for learning.

We have an open communication policy between the faculty and the parents through the almanack, quarter orientations, progress review days and so on. We encourage parents to share their concerns, their child’s achievements at home and progress with us on a regular basis. We believe that the school and parents work hand in hand to ensure that the learners are getting the best.

As our learners grow in our programme their needs from their teachers change, but no matter their age they need a nurturing and secure environment. Once learners have a sense of belonging they feel comfortable enough to explore unchartered territories and challenge themselves. Our teachers, at this age, are academic partners for the learners so that teaching and learning can happen but also they are observers making sure that the learners are able to handle the changes that are a part of growing up. As learners grow older, they realize the subjects that they have a knack for and start developing strong opinions. At JBCN we ensure that we have strong faculty for every subject, who make the learning environment vibrant, lively and dynamic so learners enjoy all their classes.
