‘The Sixth Element‘, a Pre-School, Pre Primary & Primary school, together with Day Care, is designed as a fusion of the five elements – Vayu (freedom and far reaching presence), Aakash (boundarylessness), Kshiti (positive and down to earth attitude, stability), Tejas (drive, passion and confidence) and Jal (peace and harmony) to engender the sixth element: ‘the spirit of enquiry; the unbridled joy of being & learning’ through play, discovery and exploration ! Our unique child development methodology leverages lots of activities and is inspired by the ‘genetic epistemology’ framework postulated by Jean Piaget who emphasized the importance of discovery knowledge; Vygotskywho introduced the role of social interaction in child development and Bruner who reinforced the role of the adult in helping a child develop cognitively. The school philosophy and curriculum are designed around child like experiences and the belief that development approaches need to follow every child’s readiness to learn. In our experience this approach ensures that the child enjoys the learning experience while evolving as a strong individual, with a sense of self-worth, values, integrity and self-esteem. Our reputation is also because we have green infrastructure, follow eco-friendly practices such as no/minimal plastics – so important today – besides all of the above; and the fact that we have been successfully operating for over 15 years at South City 1, Gurugram; and have recently opened our second campus at Tata Primanti, Sector 72, Gurgaon. The Sixth Element has also been listed as one of the top schools in Gurugram on Find top 10 ranks
