How to read this report
Dear Parents,
Education at The Gaudium School is about actively combining challenging and enriching experiences
with academic rigor and creative opportunities. We want our students to challenge their boundaries,
reflect on experiences and explore the world around them.
It is, therefore, important that parents wholeheartedly support the school. Whether in the
classrooms, on the stage, an event or on the sports field, we want our students to experience the
excitement of discovering who they are and what they are capable of achieving.
We have high expectations of our students and they, in turn, have high goals for themselves.
Reports are a reflection of what we believe in, informs the learning community and reflects the
question “How well are we learning?” It describes the progress and achievement of the students’
learning, identifies areas for growth and contributes to the efficacy of the programme.
On this note, I would like to present the report card of this academic year.
Let’s work together to create an environment for development and action to make a difference in the
world around.
Kind regards,
Anjalika Sharma
Principal, PYP
