Not all school leaders are the same. Some are more demanding than others.

mproving quality of learning, managing parents expectations, and yet managing financial viability, is a challenge for education leaders. Some are more demanding on quality than others. A school has many constraints and challenges ranging from Child population diversity to regulation and resources. While there are many dedicated and hard-working teachers, there is often a skill-gap that needs to be addressed. Pre-service (B.Ed) training does not always do an adequate job.

Practical Solutions: Schools need solutions that are pragmatic and actually work. They need to be aligned with latest norms (e.g. CCE) and should be usable by existing teachers. They should also have a tried and tested implementation record. Parent Acknowledgement: Whatever choices a school makes aect parents directly or indirectly. They should be able to see benefits and appreciate them. Financial Value: Schools need to balance their books and ensure that there is financial viability.

XSEED

SEED is a comprehensive academic solution that is designed to raise the level of learning in classrooms and build confidence in children. XSEED follows the proven Five-Step Experiential Learning Method where concepts are taught through hands-on experimentation followed by analysis by students, questioning, application and feedback. This replaces the one-step telling and memorization followed in many traditional classrooms. Therefore, students in XSEED classrooms grasp core concepts better, communicate fluently in English, and perform better in reasoning and application based tests. At home, XSEED children take more interest in studies and work independently on home assignments. XSEED parents also get a Model Teaching Video pack (real classrooms videos) for home teaching. Overall, parents see that their children are confident and ready with skills required for higher studies and careers.
