Q2. Everything sounds interesting and impressive, I understand the importance of bi-media, but how do you ensure children's fluency in English?

Just think! how did you teach Gujarati to your child? You just realised that you have not taught him...right? He learned by listening to it.
It is very easy to learn a language when you listen to it. As the child listen, naturally he gets familiar with hundreds of new words which are supplemented with our actions, and he starts understanding the language.
This is simple mechanism of learning any language. This is exactly what RG does. Right from the nursery through pre-primary section, our Teachers (Gurujis) converse with children mostly in English. children are exposed to a number of new words through concepts, stories, poems and routine conversation. To add on, these conversation are aided with fabulous teaching aids like flash cards, puppets, games and actions.
During these early years, children build up their vocabulary and understanding and thus form a strong base. Further in primary section we use some outstanding books to help children in learning spellings, new words, concepts, grammar, reading and conversation. Finally, in secondary section, except social studies, all other subjects are in English. So gradually children master English very well.
 
 
 
Q5. What is RG's Curriculum?

At RG,"How we learn" is more important compared to "What to learn". RG believes that no curriculum is ever complete and none can claim to make your child intelligent and knowledgeable (full of knowledge). This is why RG has not limited to the SSC Board curriculum, although we have taken it as a base. By making subjects interesting instead of compulsory, it creates love towards learning and enhances child's reasoning, questioning, thinking, answering and exprementing skills. RG does not give boundary to learn. At RG, students are encourage to use their own initiative and to develop into independent learners.
 
Q6. So, like CBSE, RG does not give importance to exam?

It's true that RG is small compared to CBSE, but RG is quite advance in thinking.
What RG has implemented 8 years ago, society is realizing now.
After reports from child specialists, psychiatrists and psychologists about how exams hinder child's growth and blocks expansion of his potential, CBSE Board has declared that there will be no exam up to 4th standard and now they are coming with no exam up to 7th standard.
Similarly, its been 4 to 5 years since society has understood the importance of EQ (Emotional Quotient), as compared to IQ (Intelligent Quotient). While RG has given importance to EQ development right from its inception 8 years ago. Only recently it is proved that SQ (Spiritual Quotient) is very powerful compared IQ and EQ. Management studies have now included SQ in its program, where as for RG, SQ is a base for the child to grow to his fullest. This is why you will find RG students always courageous, confident, creative and caring.
