Teachers Empowerment Programme:
Teacher plays a very important role in the life of a student. They are the lighthouse which guides a student to right path. A teacher will be able to direct students only if they have the right skills. We at Knowledge Horizon through its Teacher Empowerment Programme encourage Teachers’ Reinforcement through experiential and reflection based modules in order for them to inculcate right mix of skills in their students.
The objectives of our programme are:
1. Enhancement of participant’s self awareness of their strengths & potential.
2. Inspiring participants to initiate change through the process of revisiting and
questioning beliefs and assumptions on teaching and learning.
3. Improvement of instructional skills; inculcating use of innovative teaching and
pedagogical approaches.
4. Empowering teachers by providing them skills in areas of inquiry based learning,
creative thinking, developing problem solving skills among students, assessment
strategies etc.
The modules have been designed keeping in mind the contribution made by famous educators, behavioral scientists and philosophers like Jean Piaget, Howard Gardner, Vygotsky, Herbert Kohl, Goleman, J. Krishnamurthy, Sri Aurobindo and David Kolb to name a few.

Whole School Development Program (WSD):
WSD Program enables schools to reflect, set goals and move towards a whole school approach to improve themselves. Our WSD program is built on the premise that every school can improve its culture and organizational policies. Also ensure that they are in alignment with the vision and mission of the school.
Whole School Development Program works at three levels:
1. School Audit: The school audit identifies the strengths and areas of improvement
within the school thus providing a direction to the program.
2. Building Vision: This process involves creation of an inspiring vision statement to
drive the change process.
3. Training: Training, monitoring and handholding teachers to achieve school
improvement goals.
Knowledge Horizon facilitates meetings for Staff, Boards of Management, Patron Committees and Parent Associations to build a shared vision for their school, with a view to drawing up a vision statement. This can be a time to reflect and restate missions and aims, to look at specific aims and objectives, working from past achievements and current success towards a common vision for the school.
