Delhi Public School Coimbatore

ABOUT US
Takshila Educational Society laid the foundation of veritable learning in Coimbatore by establishing Delhi Public School in the year 2012 in a collaborative effort with the Delhi Public Schools Society, which is one of the largest chains of CBSE schools in India. DPS Coimbatore is affiliated to CBSE, New Delhi and offers schooling from Nursery to Class XII. The last nine years have been a journey where perseverance and progress have been the cornerstones. Today it can proudly claim to be one of the most sought after schools in Southern India.

DPS Coimbatore aims to instil a progressive mind-set and has blossomed into a multidisciplinary institution, offering various facilities to impart myriad expertise. The school nurtures leaders of tomorrow, who will succeed in whatever they put their hands to, anywhere in the world, and yet retain a distinctive ethos and essence of India. The school aims to develop the cognitive, emotional, psychomotor and aesthetic faculties of the learner through a number of curricular and co-curricular activities in order to foster team spirit and environmental cognizance. It offers an amiable, stress-free and value based learning experience.

DPS INFRASTRUCTURE
DPS Coimbatore is spread over six acres in Village Onapalayam, Vadavalli - Thondanuthur Road, Coimbatore. A marvel of modern architecture, the campus contains well-lit airy classrooms, outdoor theatre, swimming pool, spacious courtyards for indoor games, and beautifully landscaped lawns. Apart from the basic necessities which are kept clean and hygienic at all times with the help of most modern equipment, there are state-of-the-art computer labs, a weather station, a resource centre, and a fully equipped gymnasium. The school campus is eco-friendly with waste recycling vermicomposting plant producing vermicompost from waste for internal consumption.

This makes learning a joyous journey filled with continuous thrill. Children create self-learning situations. It inspires them to learn from the physical environment in such a way that the emotional environment is in sync with it. Thus, kinaesthetic, cognitive and social domains of learning get intertwined leading to creation of a whole. Is education not all about holistic development? DPS Coimbatore continuously endeavours towards this goal.

Introducing little minds to the world of knowledge needs carefully crafted lessons in learning use of resources. But what can be expected for a child who is learning to read and write! A reading corner – an important and active component of learning centres in the classroom is an encouraging time for children to touch, view and attempt to read stories. Storytelling introduces them to the books they find in this corner and gradually they grow to develop vocabulary, comprehension and fluency. You can find them sharing their excitement about stories they read…and all the effort carefully put in to help them achieve this feels worthwhile for Classes I to III. As children grow so does their curiosity. It is therefore time to help them know how to fish information from the sea of knowledge that books store. Class libraries continue as an integral part of their class activity, only now they also learn how to manage and get disciplined about living respectably with books. The books they read in class IV and V are suitably selected for their age and include a wide variety of genres that contain today's favourites, informative nonfiction, and captivating titles for Independent Reading. In the mean time when our children visit the Resource Centre we try to develop the art of identifying resources, and the power to use them to satiate their curiosity. This is also the age when we introduce them to use resources to understand useful and exciting articles from magazines that create in them an appreciation of the real world and its beauty.

Our resource center provides a pleasant environment for learning. Its ever expanding resources help each user find relevant resource. Children are encouraged to use these resources as and when they need it and it is our endeavour to make information available to them when needed. The collection includes a variety of genres that cater to all ages and varied interests. Besides, it harbours an unusual collection of even basic knowledge banks like encyclopedia for all ages.

We, through our resource centre, also subscribe to exquisite magazines that our school grows on. The selection of magazines takes into account the best in the varied fields of interests and encourages all users to access them freely. Teachers and students each have food for thought here and positive growth therefore becomes inevitable.
