Little Flower School envisions the all-round development of students in consonance with the holistic approach to education and, therefore, has done away with artificial boundaries between the co-curricular and the curricular domains. Secondary Curriculum provides students with a broad and balanced understanding of subjects including languages, Mathematics, Science, and Social Science to enable students to communicate effectively, analyse and interpret information meaningfully, make informed decisions, construct their worldview in alignment with constitutional values, and progress smoothly to be productive future citizens. The recent focus of CBSE is on developing 21st-century skills in settings where each student feels independent, safe, and comfortable with learning.
