Academics

CFL is unique in nature as it doesn't adhere to the traditional education system. As such there is no standard curriculum. It provides a space for multiple intelligences and learning styles and needs and seeks to create an environment that encourages and allows for all these multiple to flourish. Class sizes are small, with no more than 15 students in each. In addition, being NIOS certified, which is a distant self-learning program, allows students more freedom and flexibility. Teachers tailor their teaching activities and expectations of each child according to her ability and equal importance is given to each child’s unique strengths. There is acceptance and recognition of each child’s uniqueness, and we teachers customize the curriculum for each child, also helping each one succeed, gain a sense of being successful and eventually helping them develop a life plan.

Children undergo a noticeable change once they are enrolled at CFL, both behaviorally and academically. They emerge as confident, happy, successful persons and students. Their grades improve dramatically as they lose their sense of passive failure and begin to taste and expect success from themselves. Upon graduating they have gone on to good colleges of their choice, much like students from the ‘mainstream’ system.
