-
Inclusion
-
Life-skills
-
Entrepreneurship
-
Our ethos stems from the belief that every child is different and no two learners are alike. They vary in their physiological, psycho-social and cognitive make up. They learn in different ways, and at different paces. As an inclusive school in Thrissur, it is our task to meet this challenge. We place great importance on creating opportunities for our students to learn and be assessed in varied ways.
-
Our endeavor is to prepare our students to live and work in modern societies with its ever-evolving challenges and choices. Some of the skills we look to develop include Critical Thinking, Time Management, Emotional Quotient, Behavioral Balance and Communication Skills.
At TIST, we look at development from the point of view of the overall well-being of our students through Physical, Social or Health Education, and address their age-specific interests and concerns. -
Imbibing entrepreneurship skills allows a child to think outside the box, instills confidence and nurtures unconventional skill sets. It prepares them for the future when they will enter the economy and choose a professional career of their choice. The skills we impart through our education include problem-solving; team-building and transversal competences – such as learning to learn, social and civic competence, and cultural awareness.
-
Holistic Education
-
Child-Centric Approach
-
Multi-lingual Skills
-
The world today needs more cultured, sensitive and responsible citizens than ever before. As a school, our connect with the society and our roots runs deep. We strive to make our students a global citizen while ensuring they stay strongly rooted to their local values and culture. We want them to find their identity and purpose in life by connecting with the community & our environment, and imbibe humanitarian values such as compassion and peace.
-
There is no better way to learn than by doing it, which is why we believe in experiential learning. Our approach puts the student at the forefront. We involve our student using various tools for learning such as experimentation, dramatisation, role play, games, discovery sessions, concept mapping etc. following a child-centric approach. Teachers act more as a facilitator to ensure that the students gain hands-on experience and are more involved in their learning process
-
In today’s global village, knowing just one or two languages is never enough. When introduced at an early age, students have the ability to pick up the lingual skills faster and more efficiently. Which is why the school teaches English as the First Language, Hindi as the Second Language, Malayalam as the Third Language. Apart from this, students also get the options of learning foreign languages.
-
Regular Assessments
-
The school has developed an extremely balanced assessment policy which looks into various skills of a student apart from writing. The assessments are conducted on an ongoing basis using various tools and techniques without stressing the student. We conduct Parent Orientation Programme to make them aware of our ongoing assessment policy and also to ensure that the child is learning without getting burdened by exams and marks/grades all the time.

Sustainability Initiatives
We believe that, if every school takes responsibility for its own improvement and does its bit for the environment, it would go a long way in making the world a better place. By following sustainable practices, we lead by example and set the lead for students to follow.
We have sufficient windows and openings to ensure that our school is well ventilated and gets enough sunlight to minimise the need for artificial lighting.
Energy conservation is an important step in that direction. Our school is equipped with LED lighting and air-conditioning timetable to ensure the efficient use of power.
We have also put in place several water conservation and waste-paper management initiatives. We also have a system to collect rain water and harvest it.
