CAS


“CAS” gives students the means to learn through experience and how to take action in the service of others. CAS provides a major opportunity for ethical education, understood as involving principles, attitudes and behaviour. The emphasis in CAS is on helping students to develop their own identities, in accordance with the ethical principles embodied in the IB mission statement and the IB learner profile. Various ethical issues will arise naturally in the course of CAS activities, and may be experienced as challenges to a student’s ideas, instinctive responses or ways of behaving.
 The students of Grade 5 had  a CAS  program addressed by Dr. Soujanya,an eminent surgeon, on  26 July.The  focus was ‘Disabled people or Specially-abled people’. The session made the students aware about the significance of  fostering empathy for these people  and the attitude toward Individuals with disabilities. It was informative ,interesting and an interactive one.
