Learning Beyond Academics

YES by DCM is one of the few schools that will encourage learning beyond academics, catering to the students' inherent talents and signature strengths.Creative and performing arts, crafts, viz, music, dance, drama and sports is given as much importance as academics. The unique Curriculum of YES,allows students to set skill-based goals as we believe that skill development is absolutely essential to prepare the students to be leaders of tomorrow. 

All of these aspects provide a wholesome education which is one of the mainstays at YES. The CCLICK/SLITEE/CLASS Curriculum, Clubs and House System, Community Outreach Programs, inter-school tournaments, inter- house competitions, LitFest, MUN, TED Talks, Interact Club, events at local, national and international levels are just some of the opportunities that are provided to YES students. Through these features we aim to teach skills that prepare students for the VUCA (volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous world) that lies ahead of them. The YES Educators encourage learning beyond the prescribed curriculum by conducting various programmes to create the best learning environment. Some of these are :

Apart from creating healthy self-esteem, this activity also facilitates a strong home-school partnership
