Teaching Methodology
At St. Andrews School – Keesara, we ensure a well-crafted curriculum is delivered through effective instructional methods. Teachers adapt and innovate with the most stimulating teaching methods to achieve scholastic excellence and holistic growth of the student.
St. Andrews maintains a deliberate and careful balance of traditional and innovative teaching methods, which are as follows:
- Organize and plan scholastic and co-scholastic activities
- Guide students through a learning experience that gives them the scope to evolve into confident individuals
- Document the progress of students Involve parents in the student development programmes
- Update and equip students with the tools and know-how of comprehensive and pro-active learning
Learning Methodology
Learners engage in a dynamic process that not only stimulates their curiosity but also encourages exploration of familiar and uncharted territories within each subject. Our approach to learning is inquiry-based, where students actively question, brainstorm, and comprehend textbook content through hands-on exploration.
Homework plays a significant role in our students’ education, with both staff and parents sharing responsibility for this aspect of their learning journey. Teachers design assignments that support, enrich, and reinforce classroom lessons.
In addition to core subjects such as languages, mathematics, science, and social studies, students regularly participate in scheduled classes encompassing art, music, physical education, and computer studies.
Co-curricular Activities
In order to provide learning that encourages the holistic development of the student, St. Andrews has adopted a rich, vibrant and diverse co-curricular programme. This programme is an integral and essential part of the curriculum and provides students with experiences and opportunities beyond the classroom.
All students have the opportunity to discover their creative abilities and strengths through a range of sporting, artistic, cultural and social activities that run parallel to their academic programme.

It designs personalized plans tailored to each student’s strengths, needs, developmental levels, and unique learning styles, emphasizing an individualized learning process beyond traditional confines.
