The CBSE’s mission is to facilitate learning for the physical, emotional, social and intellectual well-being of students. A pace-setting National Board of School Education in the country, the CBSE always aspires and endeavors to be a center of excellence for providing quality education by continuously working on the educational standards to meet the national and global needs. The Board focuses upon the following:

Enriching the curriculum to suitably respond to the contemporary and futuristic needs in the new world.
Innovations in teaching-learning methodologies by devising students friendly and students centered paradigms.
Reforms in examinations and evaluation practices.
Skill learning by adding job-oriented and job-linked inputs.
Regularly updating the pedagogical skills of the teachers and administrators by conducting in service training programmes, workshops etc.

CBSE curriculum is designed to achieve quality benchmarks in middle school (classes VI-X) and senior secondary (classes XI & XII) programmes consistent with the national goals and replete with innovative methods to achieve academic excellence in conformity with psychological, pedagogical and social principles. CBSE offers a standardized and structured curriculum which adapts to the changing demands of society and develops future ready learners. It believes in seeking pedagogic unity, creative adoption of changing technologies, constant capacity upgradation of teachers, integrating art and sports in education, environmental concerns, and imparting a cluster of futuristic skill sets that prepare a student to become a global citizen. At the Kunskapsskolan, we believe our mission closely aligns with the CBSE philosophy of ‘Value creating Education’ thus transforming our students into responsible global citizens. CBSE spans across a network of over 22030 affiliated schools, out of which 232 schools are located in 27 foreign countries

Middle Years are the most important milestones in a student’s life. Middle-school students are working toward developing certain skills like problem-solving skills and thinking skills. They also start to participate in decision-making and organization, time management. This is a time of major social and emotional growth. Students may struggle to fit in and try to discover self-identity. At Kunskapsskolan like IB we always have students at the center of our focus. We empower every student to master the challenges of today by providing them with the opportunity.

At Kunskapsskolan we offer IB Middle Years Program (MYP), which is an inclusive curriculum offered to 11- 16-year-old students. The MYP curriculum helps the students to make practical connections between their studies and the real world, preparing them for success in further study and in life. The MYP curriculum framework comprises eight subject groups, providing a broad and balanced education for early adolescents.

Our middle school students participate in events beyond the classrooms like interschool events/ sports which enhances their learning and social development. All MYP students are a part of Community Projects/ Service Learning as part of MYP action. They delve deeper into the inquiry process before taking action and reflecting on the process.

Through our personalized learning and clear goal setting we endeavor to prepare our students to become responsible global citizens and the future leaders of tomorrow.

Academics

Kunskapsskolan is a global school where students will develop in an environment that nurtures them and their uniqueness. Exposure to the varied curriculums of Kunskapsskolan schools across the continents will provide the students with an enhanced and holistic view of the world they inhabit. The subjects and concepts taught at the various grades are aligned to the CBSE curriculum.

In Kunskapsskolan, all the subjects are organized in Steps and Themes. This challenges students to stretch their boundaries, construct a solid foundation of knowledge and skills.

Subjects that are required to be learnt sequentially and progressively are taught in steps. Math and languages are step subjects. The student moves from one step to the next, once he has mastered the previous requisite step. The students understanding of the concept is assessed through presentations and projects.

The thematic courses integrate subjects. EVS, Arts and Computers are theme courses and organized around projects and missions (assignments). They are solved or carried out by using and applying what the student has learned and demonstrate the ability to use logical thinking and creativity to solve problems.

At preschool the focus is on the different skills that children develop at this age group. The curriculum is theme based with emphasis on developing the language, numeracy, cognitive, socio emotional and motor skills. The learning will be fun filled, activity based and learner centered, strongly influenced by an understanding of early childhood learning.
