DHANBAD PUBLIC SCHOOL: July 2008

Dhanbad Public School has emerged as a shining star on the horizon of educational endeavour. It is set in picturesque surroundings, with the Dhangi Hills in the foreground and lush green fields behind and offers an ideal schooling for children.
It is sponsored by Shiksha Vikas Trust, Dhanbad. The School is situated on the Dhanbad-Govindpur Road, Near Bhuinphore Mandir, in a pollution free environment, away from the din and bustle of city life.
The school has an adequate water supply, modern sanitary arrangement, electric lighting and power.
The school aims atthe education of children from all communities to the extent possible.
The school prepares girls and boys in separate blocks for the examination conducted by the Central Board of Secondary Education, New Delhi (CBSE), (10 + 2). The medium of instruction is English. However, Hindi has a vital role in the curriculum and is taught in all the classes. Sanskrit is also taught from Std. IV. To give quality education, the school has a knowledgeable, well trained and dedicated staff.
The school also provides scholarship covering the whole or a part of the expenses on education in the school.
AIMS OF THE SCHOOL
It is our endeavour to bring up the students, so that they develop the ingredients of a full life, and a harmonious and integrated personality with particular reference to our Indian background and culture.
MONTESSORI SECTION
We have started a new section in the Nursery from March, 2005 designed for the children aged 21/2 year-31^ year.
The number of children in each class will be approximately 30 with two teachers to ensure individual attention. The Montessori class room furniture and equipment is scaled down in child's size and is within easy reach. There is nothing in the "prepared environment" which the child cannot see or touch. The child has the freedom to move and to choose any activity capturing his interest. The Montessori guide naturally stimulates child's learning without interfering with his natural desire to teach himself.
This system awakes the child's spirit, imagination and allows him to choose his activities. It helps the child to observe, question and explore ideas independently.
CURRICULUM
Exercises of Practical Life : For the development of fine motor skills, the children perform activities related to the refinement of physical and motor movements like - watering and care of plants, clothespin clamping, folding napkins, handling of dressing frames etc. Favourite activities include drawing, colouring and Craft. Yoga, Dance and Games help in the development of gross motor skills.
Sense-rial Activities : Develop and sharpen his senses like Gustatory, Tactile, Chromatic and Dimensional sense through intelligent exploration of material world.

Mathematical Ability : Helps in the understanding of number and its application in arithmetical operations aided by Montessori apparatus like geometrical solids, shapes, abacus, sandpaper numbers and number rods.
Language Development: Oral activities like story telling sessions, rhymes and conversation develop the consciousness of the spoken language which is composed of various sounds.
To encourage talent of all kinds and stretch the capacity of each individual, the work and activities are divided underfour headings.

A)Academicwork C) Physical Activities

B) Creative Activities
D) Training in responsible behaviour.

ACADEMIC WORK :- School is organised into three sections.
i) Nursery Section (L.KG. and U.KG.) : Learning while playing is the sole motto of this section. Using innovative teaching methods, children are taught reading, writing and number work.
ii) Junior Section (Std. I - V): This is organised as a separate preparatory school with its own self contained building and ground. The basic tools of learning are reading and writing. Therefore, more stress is given on teaching of languages both Hindi & English and Number Work, so that they can comprehend the materials common in business and higher education and can assimilate whatever they learn. Computer training is given to students from Std. Ml onwards.
iii) Senior Section {Std. VI - XII): In this section more stress is given on Science and Mathematics which are the stepping stones to higher learning and professional courses such as Engineering, Computer Science, Medicine and Commerce.
The library and laboratories are well equipped with sufficient modern instruments so that each student can carry out experiments independently. Various vocational training courses will be undertaken in the nearfuture.

CREATIVE ACTIVITIES
Creative activities are usually group activities. They serve to channelise emotional and physical energy of the children. They also provide preliminary training in some of the vocations in which the children are likely to specialize in future. These activities also satisfy the natural instinct in man for creation, thus helping in natural growth.
The school offers a wide range of activities:
1) MUSIC, ART and CRAFT: Painting, Needle Work, Dance, Singing, Instrumental music.
2) OTHER HOBBIES : Flower arrangement, Gardening, Rangoli, Repair of Electrical Gadgets,
Claymodelling, etc.
