Araniko School

Thalsikhel,Lalitpur

Ph:5539166

School Profile
Arniko School has been a pioneer Educational Institution for decades, and is reviving with many positive updates in its facilities and approach. Arniko School is centrally located at Talchikhel-Chok. We at Arniko mold children to be positively disciplined, honest, generous, good human beings with a strong academic foundation. With all aspects of our effort we impart good education in which children are considerd respectful and responsible citizens of the society.
School Management
The school is managed by a team of social workers and educators who are dedicated to the development of underprivileged children.
Teachers
We have a team of experienced and qualified teachers who are trained in modern teaching approaches, and to incorporate current technology. Teacher training and development is one of our major concerns. With technical support from Ullens School , which follows the Bank Street Approach, Arniko School has built a unique approach to education.  Teachers are required to teach with a participatory approach that engages children in active learning.
Teaching approach
We have a student-centered and interactive approach with frequent opportunities to learn and experience through field trips, practical work, experiments and project work. We emphasize student participation in the classroom, with the teacher as facilitator rather than lecturer. Teachers create learning environments where children experience learning, rather than listening.
     
Teacher Student Relations
We emphasize self discipline by children, encouraged by positive feedback on behavior by teachers and other students.  We are against punishing children as done in traditional schools; rather we discipline children with psychosocial counseling, building a friendly relation among teachers and students. Teachers, staff and students are all trained to treat one another with respect and dignity.
Psychosocial Counseling
Arniko has accommodated children from different backgrounds, so the school has felt that psychosocial counseling is a very important component of the educational process for children who are from vulnerable backgrounds. We have a team of expert counselors who are providing counseling to the children and providing training to teachers.
Using Modern Equipment
Arniko uses modern teaching aids such as multimedia projectors, audio visuals and other electronic aids to teach children in the classroom.  Where low-tech equipment is appropriate, as with the use of manipulatives in teaching math and other subjects, this equipment is use.
Internet Facilities
We have internet connections during school/off hours in our computer lab where children and teachers can explore reference materials and learn more about their world.
Sports and Club Activities
It is important for children to participate in sports and other activities for their vital development, both physical and social. We organize different sports activities for children where children can participate in games.
For children with a more academic focus, our clubs and competitions include debate, writing, recitation, spelling bees, and similar activities.  Club activities also include basic vocational education and arts and crafts.
Bridge course
For students who are developmentally not up to the grade level the bridge course helps underachievers to meet the required standard with intensive instructional support and guidance.
Vocational Training
Vocational training is provided to students above standard five so that the students can gain knowledge on vocations such as plumber, electrician, electronic assistant, metal fabricator, etc.
