The Vision At SHEMFORD Schools we believe in the power of "What if ..." What if children wake up their parents to go to school everyday? What if they run to school and walk back home? What if they are as excited about learning as they are about playing? What if they look forward to tests? What if children love schooldays more than holidays? What if... What if ...," is a question that inventors ask themselves everyday. It drives people to innovate their world. At SHEMFORD, we love this question. It makes up think of the unusual, of the extraordinary, off the league, and allows us to explore new possibilities. Possibilities to make schooling interesting, engaging and motivating.

For which we have initiated a unique programme named SYNERGY through which we provide opportunities for parent"s interaction and participation so that together we can contribute meaningfully in the overall development of the child. Student-centered learning (also called child-centered learning) is an approach to education focusing on the needs of the students, rather than those of others involved in the educational process, such as teachers and administrators. This approach has many implications for the design of curriculum, course content, and interactivity of courses. Traditionally, teachers direct the learning process and students assume a receptive role in their education. With the advent of progressive education in the 19th century, and the influence of psychologists, educators have largely replaced traditional curriculum approaches with "hands-on" activities and "group work", which the child determines, on his own, what he wants to do in class. Key amongst these changes is the premise that students actively construct their own learning. Student centered-learning means reversing the traditional teacher-centered understanding of the learning process and putting students at the centre of the learning process. Based on the child centered learning philosophy, ShemEduMAX is designed. ShemEduMAX - A system to meet the challenges of changing times, where the main focus is on the child as an individual, his needs, interests, aptitudes and abilities. Each child is unique, with unique abilities and strengths. The growing up process presents a different range of requirements and challenges at every stage. The curriculum devised must include all the learning experiences of the child inside and outside the school. Whatever the child learns in school must be applicable in real life experiences also. Along with academic skills, creative and social skills must be placed on the same footing, and then only we can groom all round personality of the child.
