“ I came in with lots of
apprehensions in my mind as I was moving in to a day boarding school like
Pathways which was very different from the boarding environment that I was used
to. Pathways was very different. There was a beautiful relationship shared between
juniors and seniors and between
the teachers and students. The interest
students took in various activities, sports and extra co-curricular activities
was great. The interest students took in learning both outside and inside the
classes with the help of different means was great. The manner is which
Conservation and exploration of the waste and biodegradable things that’s
produced in the school was done was indeed great. Everyone in the school seems
to be happy and friendly. It appears they know each other for a long time and
that’s great”. – Aadhar Dewan
“To be honest when I came in I
was amazed by everything in the school.. The class rooms, the facilities , the
sport’s block etc. What I least cared about initially was the academics. But
when I started with my pre-term classes ,
I started to gain interest in the academics as well. The main aspect
which got me to IB was the vast choice of subjects. I really liked our time
table and the balance of it with different activities such as CAS, CASA,
Pottery, Art etc.
The pedagogy of teaching at
Pathways is based on research work and
self learning which is really good. We actually struggled the first few days,
adjusting not understanding what work we were given. The “Skill Based Learning” methods actually helps us develop the skills and learn something for a change. I really feel
happy that I was right about choosing IB”. – Shivin Moza
I really like the way our
teachers teach us through ppt’s which actually increases our knowledge about
the subject. Now is I don’t ask people how much time is left for the lesson to
get over because we are studying really practical and interesting topics. The
school has great sports facilities. Now,
I am very much familiar with everyone in the school and I look forward
to seek more opportunities both in sports and academics. I no longer see school
as a burden but now for me, it’s a place
where I enjoy to my fullest in every aspect”. - Sarthak Gaur
“For me who has studied in a CBSE
school all my life, IB was a very
different yet interesting curriculum. There are two new things - TOK and CASS,
which I was exposed to here. TOK-Theory of Knowledge lessons opened up a whole
new perspective to me. TOK is about having a deeper knowing of something,
questioning it etc. Another interesting and enlightening thing that we did is
CAS. CAS basically is community service which enables and encourages us to
contribute something good to the community. In my personal experience, it also
makes you feel good about yourself, doing something for the good of someone.
These two new things that have been introduced to me in IB have made the experience all the more wonderful
for me”. – Neha Gupta
“Sports! It’s not just a term which is used to represent any sport. I think sports is a basic component which teaches us team spirit, discipline and also the significance of win and lose. I have turned a new leaf for myself in the field of sports . I am really happy being a part of the Pathways family. I found it very astonishing that Pathways has a very good sport curriculum. Students here are free to choose any sport of their choice so that they can easily excel in any particular field. Also the sports faculty here is very welcoming to students . As compared to other schools Pathways has formed a niche for itself in the field of sports. It has now been a month for me in the Pathways family and I have played every sport available in this school. I really enjoy being at Pathways and play sports of my choice without any hesitation of winning and losing. Here every child is given chance to prove himself both in sports and academics and that is indeed wonderful”.– Siddharth
“The moment I came to pathways, I was scared and there were so many apprehensions in my mind about how the people there would be like.. After four or five days when I started getting used to the system and had made some friends, I started enjoying it. I’ve realized that people here are very different. People are more warm, open, frank and friendly here. Teachers especially, are very friendly and nice. I’ve never been so frank with any teacher as I’ve been in Pathways. The activities, assemblies and some new things like TOK and CAS are very interesting and fun. Students are very creative and I’m exploring a lot more than earlier. I’ll take some time to fully open up with people but as of now, I think, I’m enjoying this pre-term session and looking forward to further activities in the new session beginning August”. – Pratyush
Our Pre – term parents have been a great support. A feedback received from a pre-term parent :
Feedback from Mr. Som Sharma – Father of Siddharth Sharma Pre-term Form 11
“ It gives me immense pleasure to get your mail regarding my son , Siddharth Sharma, and I wish to congratulate everyone including myself on successful plantation of a life in Pathways family, as I always believe that when you uproot a life from somewhere and put him in different condition and atmosphere, it takes a little extra efforts from everyone to see that we get good results, at least in Siddharth's case i am confident that we are in the right direction”.
