De Paul School – Building a society of responsible adults

Often times we worry that our children may lose their childhood while worrying about exams and competition. We also worry at the same time that they may lose out on academics if their concentration shifts to activities.

Once in a while schools like De Paul come along, which strike the perfect balance and ease our worries. How our children see the world and shape themselves depends majorly on the school’s environment and what they learn during their childhood. The school delivers brilliantly here, providing a platform that enables growth and happiness together through academics and activities.

De Paul School is the brainchild of a congregation established by St. Vincent De Paul. There are 7 educational institutions spread across the globe, working towards the goal of building a society of responsible adults. We shall learn more about De Paul School in Vizag to understand how it functions and whether it deserves to be one of Vizag’s top 10 schools.

Where is it on the map?

You can find the school quite easily in Sector 8, Ukkunagaram in Vizag. It is a famous landmark that most locals are familiar with.

The school provides transport to children coming from far off places, making the school easily reachable.

Which curriculum do the children study in?

De Paul is an ICSE school, which adapts innovative teaching methodologies for children from LKG to grade X.

How good are the facilities?

We can safely say that De Paul School provides excellent facilities to its students. The massive campus has plenty of space for labs, halls, knowledge centers, etc. The playground is equally impressive. Here’s a better look at the major facilities:

Classrooms

All classrooms have smart boards and the required technological support. They are also aesthetically designed to be welcoming and comfortable. The smart boards play a huge role in ensuring that all classes are interactive.

Laboratories

The ICSE syllabus in itself is application-oriented and quite vigorous. The school does complete justice to it with its computer, science, and language labs. Children use these labs to gain practical knowledge and strengthen their learning.

Library

From inspirational books to interactive books to fantasies – The De Paul library has them all! The environment is conducive to learning and communication, truly encouraging children to put all their faculties (imagination, creativity, etc.) to use

Knowledge center

We find it highly inspiring that along with fully-equipped laboratories and a dedicated library, the school has a knowledge center for the benefit of children and teachers alike.

Multipurpose hall

The hall is used to host seminars, competitions, workshops, etc. It is a large space that invites participation and teamwork.

Playground

With separate play areas for primary and secondary students, the school ensures that every child focuses on physical fitness and fun. The playgrounds have age-appropriate amenities for a wide range of sports.

Co-curricular activities

As a part of the curriculum and beyond it, De Paul offers all children opportunities to work on their creativity, imagination, confidence, etc. through numerous activities such as violin classes, chess, music band, and drawing. To encourage healthy competition and active participation, the school has multiple clubs and a house system.

Transport

The school operated buses run on all working days, picking up and dropping students from/at particular points. A transport attendant is appointed for every bus, who takes care of security and safety.

Learning – A customized approach based on class

It is common knowledge that the ICSE syllabus is quite intense and vigorous. In order to master it, children need continued support from their teachers and teaching methodologies that make the curriculum digestible. De Paul School facilitates that beautifully.

What starts as a friendly mode of teaching in the primary years, transforms to semi-formal and then formal mode as years progress and the need for preparation intensifies. However, at every turn, teachers provide an open learning atmosphere where children can learn at their own pace and approach their respective teachers in case of difficulties. This wholesome learning atmosphere has yielded amazing results in the past years.

After learning about De Paul School, we can affirm that it is indeed one of the best ICSE schools in Vizag.
