UN&PS
Uluru Nursery & Primary School
UN&PS opened its doors in 2016. The thought behind the establishment of this English medium TEWFI school was to bring a different approach to educating students. It seems that India’s method of education is rote learning. Children memorize and then can repeat only what they have memorized in only the exact order. UN&PS wanted to expand the learning and thinking of their students. Also, the philosophy is to take the students outside the classroom and expose them to learning beyond books.
We have classes from Kindergarten to fifth standard.
English, Tamil. Hindi and digital/computer learning are part of the core curriculum.
As of the present day we have five teachers. Our students are from local communities and to increase enrollment we now have students from the next village. A total of 27 students attend. After we get approval, the school will expand through 7th standard. These classrooms have been finished and are ready to be used once the government has approved our school to be recognized.
