Indus in leadership as well as pedagogy
01, 1.1.2019
2019 will be a defining year for Indus in leadership as well as pedagogy. Given that the purpose of education is preparation for a future we do not know, education of the heart and mind, and not the head alone, will assume significance.
Around mid-2019, all Indus schools will be organizing a 2-day leadership fest based on folk traditions of India and aesthetics. Indus students and folk artists will collaborate in this initiative. The fest will be based on the concept of thinking global and acting local. It will also evaluate the relevance of traditional Indian leadership models in modern context.
We sincerely hope that, with greater student-autonomy in taking responsibility for their learning, our students will acquire the requisite leadership competencies to improve their academic rigour.
Wishing all teachers, parents and children a very happy New Year!
(This is the essence of the message brought to newly elected Leaders of The Indus Student Council at Bangalore, by Lt. Gen. Arjun Ray (Retd.), CEO of the Indus Trust on the occasion of The Ceremony of Investiture on January 26th, 2012)
