Aims and Objectives

  • As it is noted above, St. Joseph Convent School aims at the integral development of the child into a “fully human and fully alive” person.
  • The motto of the school inscribed in the emblem Educate -> Motivate -> and Illuminate. Vidya [Knowledge] is divine and salvific in so far as it is for the integral development of the person and the human society as a whole. Education brings the best in him/her. School thus becomes the field where the students try and hear and move ahead so as to finally succeed in life.
  • The end result of the process of education, therefore, is a purified and polished personality for complete living.

In short, the following are the AIMS AND OBJECTIVES of the School:

  • Intellectual Competence:- Our students should exhibit mastery and leadership relative to their age, ability, and the subject of study; acquire intellectual skills and understanding which go beyond the examination requirements. 
  • Moral uprightness:- The student has to discern(recognize), the values that uphold the dignity of the human person from those that degrade and has to assimilate(understand fully) a sound value system. They should also develop moral courage and “fearfulness”, be able to make normal judgments and can translate them into action.
