Our Education Philosophy
NEG-FIRE's Education Philosophy is based on proven child-learning theories. Based
on our experiences, we have chosen a set of approaches suitable to the needs of the
children from the marginalized communities, to enhance early learning.
- Every child has the capacity and potential to learn and acquire knowledge and
become a better citizen.
- Children come to an educational institution with a wealth of knowledge and
experiences that assists in acquiring early learning concepts.
- Each child learns differently and at their own pace, which has to be reflected in
the teaching practices.
- Children learn from each other through collaborative activities.
- Children's fluency in mother-tongue supports the knowledge acquisition
process.
- Teaching practices grounded in the child's culture and environment help to
transit from the known to the unknown.
- A learning atmosphere at home supported by parents and a child-friendly
environment in the village impacts the child's learning ability.
