Civic Literacy

“Civic Literacy is the knowledge of how to actively participate and initiate change in your community and the greater society. It is the foundation by which a democratic society functions”.

At Vikas, well-educated teachers are able to create democratic cultures in the classroom. They have the skills and understanding needed to construct frameworks in which children from an early age are motivated to take an active part in democratic activities in the schools and consequently in the wider society.

Everyone requires civic education; it empowers every individual to get well-informed about their surroundings, which would mould them into active citizens and for continued contribution to a change in the world around us. It is indeed a vital part of any democracy for equipping ordinary people with knowledge about our democracy, especially our constitution and its rights.

People who live by these democratic values and engage continuously with communities, authorities and institutions to bring about change in societies are what we call active citizens.

"We believe that India is only as good as its citizens". Our mission is to empower young people to be the very best they can be, so that India is the very best it can be.

THE NATURE WEAVERS- AN ECO-FRIENDLY APPROACH SOLUTIONS

A school is just not about academics, but also it's about environment-friendly building and its resources, minimizing wastage of natural resources, and much more. We ensure our school accommodates every child with a fair amount of space to enhance their ability to be a part of this natural world.

We encourage:

• Pupils to walk for reducing carbon footprints.
• Tree plantation program.
• Eating green vegetables and fruits instead of processed foods
• Usage of recycled papers and making the best out of waste
• Get down to the earth to know our source of existence
• Be energy efficient and stop wasting resources
• Keeping the environment clean - as cleanliness enhances mental ability with inflow of positivity.

We together hope to create a civic network where staff, parents and students can be actively involved to resolve issues related to our very own environment in their own small way, supporting a healthy and secure life on Earth.
