Education isn’t just about acquiring knowledge; it’s also about motivation and inspiration. Dr.VivekBindra is known for his dynamic and motivational speaking style. His ability to ignite passion and drive in learners is a testament to his commitment to not just educate but also inspire.

Dr.VivekBindra’s visionary concepts are not limited to the realm of education alone; they extend to leadership, entrepreneurship, and personal development.

With an overwhelming response, DPS Hinjawadi has already filled nearly 300 seats from nursery to 6th grade, leaving only a few openings for prospective students. This signifies an overwhelming demand for a top-notch educational experience in Pune to be fulfilled by the upcoming DPS Hinjawadi.

DPS Hinjawadi, under the dynamic leadership of Gautam Rajgarhia, Pro Vice Chairman, and Siddharth Rajgarhia, Chief Learner and Director, aims to establish itself as a premier institution for quality education in Pune.

Bengaluru, 10th Nov 2023 – St. George’s University (SGU) School of Medicine in Grenada, the Caribbean, is pleased to announce that it is now accepting applications from aspiring Indian medical students for its January 2024 intake.

The University offers rolling admissions for its January, April, and August intakes at its True Blue campus in Grenada, with different benefits depending on the admission period. In addition, SGU’s collaboration with Northumbria University in Newcastle upon Tyne and the Ramaiah Group of Institutions in Bengaluru allows students to begin their journey to becoming a doctor in the UK or India in September 2024.

While starting medical school in January may seem unconventional, there are several advantages for students to consider:

• Time Management:

As one of the few international medical schools offering January admission, it allows students who missed previous intakes to secure a spot without waiting an entire year to begin their medical education journey.

• Intimate Learning Environment:

Students who enrol in January typically form a smaller cohort, allowing them to benefit from a more personalized learning experience due to a lower student-to-faculty ratio in lectures.

• Early Start on Residency Matching:

Securing a medical residency is a crucial step towards becoming a doctor in the US. Students who begin medical school in January can begin this process earlier than their peers who begin in April or August, enabling them to get a head start in their medical education.

• Preparation for Key Examinations:

Several important exams take place near the end of the second year of medical school. With the January intake, students have more time to fully prepare for these exams, increasing their chances of success.

David Anthonisz, Executive Director of International Student Recruitment at SGU, said, “St. George’s University School of Medicine is a global institution with multiple enrolment options. Our commitment to flexibility enables prospective students to begin their medical education as soon as possible while accommodating their various needs. Furthermore, it reflects the essence of International Education Month in January, celebrating the richness and diversity of worldwide educational opportunities.”

SGU is the largest source of physicians licensed in the US—more than any other medical school in the world* and remains committed to healthcare education, providing the training and tools needed for medical students to succeed.

Students interested in applying can find more information on the SGU website.

The students of The Academy School (TAS), Pune, conducted a Student Led Conference (SLC) wherein they prepared their portfolios and presented their yearly achievements to parents and teachers. The activity, conducted by students from Grade VI to Grade X and initiated by TAS, is aimed at building communication and leadership skills among students at an early age.

Dr. Maithili Tambe, CEO of TAS, who spearheaded the initiative, said the activity helps students gain essential life skills that will help them in their day-to-day lives in future. “The activity also requires teamwork which also gives them a sense of ownership and responsibility. SLC helps in providing deeper insights into students’ development to their parents and teachers,” she said.

Through the initiative, students could apply their learning to something that will be a real-world experience when they gain employment. “Education is not just what they are doing right now but also what they will be doing in their lives after school and college. Learning is a process and it is always better to remain a step ahead,” Tambe said.

Students also did projects based on science such as human anatomy and human physiology, gained History lessons on the impact of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj, Samrat Ashoka, and Gautam Buddha among others, and studied electro-static and thermal energy. They also played musical instruments, did meditation, and danced. Also, they learned household work such as folding clothes, and showcased it to their parents and teachers.

Besides SLC, TAS has other learning phases as well for students including student-teacher time (STT) to increase synergy between them, Independent Country, Independent Me (ICIM) to inculcate independence among students, out-of-the-box initiatives to hone their creativity, STEM education to master more than one aspect through overlapping subjects, NEP station to enhance critical thinking, and art corner to provide self-expression in students. All the initiatives help students in their holistic development and build their cognitive abilities.

“TAS prioritizes holistic development in education, fostering a child’s physical, cognitive, socio-emotional, and creative growth. We believe a well-rounded personality is essential for a child to shape the world’s future. We cultivate and encourage these aspects, ensuring every child emerges as a confident, creative, and compassionate global citizen,” Tambe said.

Bangalore, 8th November 2023: Power Club, a US-based career and talent development company and IPN Foundation, a knowledge network of school leaders, successfully concluded the Education Summit (GTES 2023) focused on nurturing the extraordinary gifts and talents of K-12 students/children on Nov 03, 2023. With over 100 researchers, educationists, and school principals as attendees, the virtual summit emphasized schools’ crucial role in preparing students for the future and identifying their unique talents beyond academics. The event also saw participation from industry-leading guest speakers and top school leaders like Don Ambrose (Author and researcher, Gifted Education), Sonia Lal (Former Harvard Admissions interviewer) and B. Earl (Writer and storyteller at Marvel Entertainment), Mrs. Amrita Buramn (Deputy Director, Sunbeam Group of Educational Institutions, Varanasi), Dr. Chandrashekar (CEO, Jain Group of Institutions, Hyderabad), Mr. Sanjay Dutta (Director principal, MMPS Udaipur), Ms. Rama Maylavarapu (Principal, CPS Global, Chennai) and more.

Gifted students are those who demonstrate outstanding levels of aptitude or competence (compared to others of their age) in one or more domains. These domains could include structured areas of activity like mathematics, music and languages or skills like dance, sports and painting. When there is a gap between a child’s potential and their achievement, it is referred to as underachievement. According to a study by Dr. Jae Yup Jung from UNSW, Sydney, over 50% of gifted students fail to reach their full potential, with a significant number dropping out of school and university prematurely. This gap is exacerbated by the lack of dedicated policies and programs, as well as a general unawareness and misunderstanding of giftedness.

At GTES 2023, Don Ambrose, author and a leading expert in Gifted Education, shared his insights on the missing link in schools’ assessment of giftedness and talent and how they can nurture their students’ full potential. While acknowledging the value of standardized testing and IQ, Don went on to talk about the ‘spectrum of abilities’. Using the analogy of visible light, which when passed through a prism gives us a spectrum of colors, Don shared his concern about the many gifts and talents possessed by students remaining latent. He urged schools and policy makers to go beyond academic assessments that look only for algorithmic abilities and also search for abilities like critical thinking, visual metaphoric thinking (the ability to be able to synthesize and represent complex ideas through diagrams and visuals, aesthetic sensibilities), and the ability to appreciate aesthetics and beauty. He stressed on the need for schools to foster multidisciplinary thinking to enable students to discover their aspirations and empower them to act on their unique talents and gifts.

Saurabh Saxena, Founder and CEO of Power Club said, “We believe that every student is uniquely talented. Five years ago we discovered that 50% of gifted students remain underachieved for life, and this compelled us to work towards making real world education inclusive, so that every student is empowered to discover and develop their unique talents and find a path to creative fulfillment. GTES 2023 aimed to inspire forward-thinking school leaders to transcend existing academic boundaries, work towards identifying the unique talents of their students and offer expert advice on how they can nurture them to achieve their full potential. Going forward, we aim to make GTES an annual event, fostering holistic development in gifted education, worldwide.”

Gaurava Yadav, Founder & Chairman of IPN Foundation, talking about their association with Power Club, said, “We are excited about the possibilities of bringing a Gifted and Talented education programme for the Indian School education system along with the PowerClub team. NEP2020 has ushered in massive possibilities for Indian students and as a country we are undergoing major metamorphosis in our overall education landscape. This is the best time to bring world class opportunities to the Indian school ecosystem. And we believe the team behind Power Club is geared up in bringing this movement with the right mix of experience and expertise for Indian students.”

Power Club, through GTES, aims to empower school leaders with the knowledge and tools necessary to identify and support gifted students fostering an environment where their unique talents can thrive. By bringing together experts and practitioners in the field, the summit serves as a catalyst for change driving awareness and advocating for necessary policy reforms. The company is all set to launch its transformative curriculum with select top schools in the US, Middle East, and India this year.
