Admission to PICT Model School is based upon vacancy in the class to which admission is sought. After the counselling session, should the parents wish to go in for registration, an interaction is arranged with the teacher and the child, which is followed by a meeting with the Director Principal and both the parents to discuss the vision and mission of the institution. Should the parents believe in the vision, mission and regulations that govern the institution, the school decides on admission.

We give preference to siblings of existing students of the school if seats are available. Siblings are also offered a discount on the fee.

A safe and secure campus is the priority at PICT. While strict measures are taken to keep the learners and staff safe on campus, security is a mindset that is developed from a very young age through regular counselling and awareness programmes. The school has a POCSO Committee and Internal Complaints Committee with well-defined norms. These committees organise periodic awareness programmes customised to different age groups so that all members feel secure and protected. CCTV cameras are installed at all critical points across the campus and on school buses. This is being monitored by dedicated personnel. All the buses are GPS-enabled and have lady attendants to look after the learners.

Academics at PICT encompass all conventional subjects such as languages, humanities, science along with performing arts, visual arts and sports. Continuous assessment and constructive feedback in all the areas of academics pave the way for a plethora of career prospects of the learners. To name a few other platforms where the learners display their interests are:

1. Inter School Competitions
2. Annual Art festival
3. MUN Conferences
4. Annual Science Exhibition
5. Annual Sports Carnival
6. Annual Performance Day
7. Happy Hour Events

Professional Development is the way of life for all educators at PICT. All educators dedicate at least two to three hours a week towards upgrading skills. Continuous training in pedagogical techniques, techniques and tools of assessment, differentiated learning, active learning strategies, lesson planning, making worksheets, designing formative assessments, life skills, dealing with special children, TESOL, delivering lessons virtually, and all aspects of competency-based education as per the guidelines of NEP 2020 and NCF 2023 is imparted either through workshops or webinars. Adding qualifications and upgrading teaching-learning skills open up opportunities to grow within the organisation.

Parents are the partners in education at PICT. While educators are the technical anchors at school, as emotional anchors, parents are expected to set a routine with adequate physical activities and a self-study schedule after school. Continuous monitoring of the child’s progress and giving regular feedback to the school is expected from parent partners. Specific and timely observations are expected to be shared periodically with the educators through emails and calls.

English is the language on campus. All communications on campus between educators and learners happen in English except in the language classes. At the Foundation Level (Nursery to Grade 2) and the Preparatory Level (Grades 3 to 5), a bilingual mode of communication is adopted in the classrooms when the need arises. Proficiency in languages and communication skills is the focus at school. The school’s language curriculum is designed to achieve mastery in all four language skills – listening, speaking, reading and writing. With this vision, we are associated with the University of Cambridge to conduct the Cambridge English Language Assessments (CELA) to acquire Cambridge English Qualifications (CEQs). CELA is a globally recognised test of English Language Proficiency mapped to the CEFR. The certificates are accepted worldwide in all prestigious universities.

Marathi is offered as a compulsory language across all grades.

Languages opted under R 2 cannot be taken as R 3 and vice versa. Choice of R 2 for Middle and Secondary School will depend on the R 2 studied in the previous class/school.

The school has a comprehensive skill based sports programme facilitated by professionals. We offer an integrated sports programme for Grades 1 and 2 focusing on their fine and gross motor development so that they are ready to pick up specialized sports in their coming years. For Grades 3 to 9, the sports programmes concentrate on building up a perfect coordination between the body and mind. Therefore, apart from specialized coaching in games like Badminton, Table Tennis, Cricket, Basketball, Football, Athletics and Swimming. Yoga is compulsory for all. Intra-school and inter-school tournaments are held on a regular basis to encourage and promote Sports. The school campus has designated areas with specialized infrastructure and experienced physical educators have been engaged to ensure that children get all round training in physical fitness and sports.

A written request must be submitted by the parents either personally or through mail. Upon approval by the Principal, a 'Permission Slip' should be obtained from the front desk and shown at the school gate before leaving the campus. Production of Escort Card is mandatory. Students will be handed over only to the escorts whose photographs reflect in the Escort Card and is duly stamped by the school authorities.

In case of illness or an emergency, a written note has to be sent to the class educator the following day through the diary or an email can be sent to the school, mentioning the name of the learner, grade and section.

In case of a planned absence, a written note has to be sent to the class educator through the diary and an email can be sent to the school, at least two days in advance, mentioning the name of the learner, grade and section.

Parents are requested not to take a vacation or long leave when the school is in session as it affects the academic progress of the child. In case of compelling circumstances, prior permission must be sought from the Principal (at least one week in advance). Attendance on the first day (after vacation/ school reopening) and the last day (prior to vacation) is compulsory.

PICT Model School religiously follows two primary modes of communication: the School Almanac and the Beacon, our weekly transaction report. We can be contacted via email and phone calls as published in the School Diary for specific concerns.

For the best interest of the learner, we do not encourage communication regarding academic performance, fee dues, behavioural issues of the child, concerns regarding staff and other personal family matters through the school diary. Such communications are restricted to the exchange of mail only.

PTMs are organised regularly, and the schedule is published in the School Diary. The time schedule for the same is sent about a week in advance to the parents. PTMs are organised both online and on campus, as required. Attendance is mandatory for the parents. Should a need arise to meet the teacher, a prior appointment can be taken through a diary message, email or a phone call.

Educators are trained to take care of teaching and learning but not parenting. When parents spend quality time with their children, listen to them patiently and support them emotionally, only then do children feel secure and grow up with confidence. As much as the educators shoulder their responsibilities, we would like our parents to pay attention to the following:

• Abiding by the policies and regulations stated in the school diary, which govern the day-to-day functioning of the school.
• Informing the school about pre-existing medical conditions and /or learning difficulties/disabilities that may interfere with the learning process and, hence, achieving the learning benchmarks of the curriculum.
• Regular monitoring of the child’s performance. Encouraging self–study provides opportunities for reflection and self-evaluation, fundamental components to becoming independent learners.
• Checking and signing the notes in the school diary daily.
• Monitoring the internal assessment papers and consulting the concerned educators periodically.
• Encouraging and supporting the child to participate in all events and competitions.
• Updating themselves through the Weekly Transaction Report sent by mail every Friday.
• Attending all PTMs and Parent Orientation Programme conducted at regular intervals.
• Parents are strongly advised to meet the Educators in case of behavioural issues or academic concerns, without delay.
• For all inter-school and out-station competitions, it is the parents' responsibility to volunteer and accompany the learner.
