Children are like wet cement; whatever falls on them makes an impression. And it’s the responsibility of the elders
to ensure that the impression is good. The evolution of Prime Academy’s culture is ultimately determined by the
amount of love, understanding and freedom experienced by its children. Every emphatic act and expression of love
helps children become what they want to become moving them in unexpected, wondrous new directions and
security of the right social growth. This section of the school is equipped with vibrant and beautiful classrooms and
a play area, keeping in mind regular exercise for them.
The Pre-Primary section essentially comprises of Playgroup, Nursery, Jr.KG. and Sr.KG. The students of Pre-Primary are referred to as the Air Force and every class is an individual Squadron. At this stage, seeds of values are sown in the children’s minds and the germination of values begins and grows into a sapling.
“The greatest gifts you can give your children are the roots of responsibility and the wings of independence.”

“Inclusion of Socially Useful Productive Work & Co-curricular Activities”
SUPW is the abbreviation for Socially Useful Productive Work. It is defined as the significant manual work and services which are related to the needs of the society, community and children and are meaningful for students. Students have the opportunity to develop vocational skills depending on the nature of their chosen projects. It encourages students to connect with their communities and understand their needs and challenges. Students learn empathy, social responsibility and the value of giving back to society. Although this subject is assessed internally, the rating on SUPW finds a place in the ICSE certificate.
The school also provides opportunities for - Literary Activities like Debate, Recitation, Creative Writing, Extempore, Group Discussions, Quizzing etc. along with Scientific Activities like Experimentation, Exploration, Project Work, Science Club activities etc. and Cultural Activities like; Music, Dance, Drama, Painting and Exhibitions
The school provides ample opportunities and extends full support to all children for their physical, social, moral and mental development. The ‘HOUSE SYSTEM’ has been introduced for ease of execution of various activities and all school activities are organised in that order. Sports, Literary activities, Creative activities and Productive learning activities are organized regularly. Besides the inter house activities, children also participate in exhibitions, painting, dance, drama, music etc. for interschool competitions.
An attitude refers to a set of emotions, beliefs, and behaviour towards a particular object, person, thing or event. Attitudes are often the result of experience or upbringing. They can have a powerful influence over behaviour and affect how people act in various situations. While attitudes are enduring, they can also change. The main components of attitude are cognitive, affective and behavioural, which means they incorporate thoughts, feelings and actions.
An achievement is considered when someone has succeeded in doing something, especially after a lot of effort and great courage. At Prime Academy, achievement is about cultivating habits and attitudes that enable young people to face difficult situations and uncertainty with a streak of calmness, intelligence, confidence and creativity.
To live successfully in the 21st century, it is not enough to graduate from school merely with a handful of certificates. Students must learn to be resourceful, imaginative, grateful and respectful towards others too. They must imbibe in themselves qualities of integrity and self-discipline. They should also be equipped to fuel their ambition and handle the pressures of today’s dynamic lifestyle in a collaborative and cohesive manner.
At Prime Academy, we provide numerous opportunities to our students to develop the necessary set skills and attitudes for emotional, mental and professional success. We value and celebrate achievements in academics, sports, the visual and performing arts, community service and cultural activities. It is our top priority to ensure that children are provided with a safe and motivating environment for effective teaching and learning.
Prime Academy affirms the rights of students to learn to the best of their ability and potential in an environment that is positive, safe, friendly, caring and supportive of young minds. The school has set clear parameters of what is acceptable behaviour and students are held accountable for their actions. They are made aware of the outcomes and consequences of their actions, should they choose to act in a manner that is not acceptable or detrimental to the school’s interest. The cornerstone of the school’s culture is the firm belief that its students own their school and that collectively they set the tone of the school.
