Lakshmi SantoshCo-FounderNeuron Labs SchoolPassion andInception of aTrailblazing SchoolNeuron Labs School beganits ambitious journey in the year2010 starting off as a sought afterPreschool / Play School catering tochildren in the Nursery, Lower KG &Upper KG sections. Since then NeuronLabs School has grown step by stepover the years to become one of thebest and most popular CBSE affiliatedschools in the vicinity. Currently it hasbranches in Tingre Nagar and Dhanori,areas which is in Pune, Maharashtra.Neuron Labs School was establishedwith an outright motto of 'Learning ByDoing'. Mrs. Lakshmi Santosh explainsthe driving force of the institute as shepoints out, "When it comes totraditional education, a lot of focus isput on retention and repetition ofinformation. This causes students tosimply use rote-learning as amechanism to pass exams and forgetinformation as time goes by. In thepyramid of education, knowledgeforms the base of the pyramid; hencethere is a major emphasis given to it.However, above that, there isComprehension and Application, whichare rarely focused on. Neuron LabsSchool prioritises skill developmentalong with the deep understanding ofconcepts."According to Mrs. Lakshmi, many ofthe concepts taught in traditionaleducation do not have much practicalapplication in the real world and arenot implementable. Also, many of theskills required in the real world, likeresearch, communication, andpresentation, are missing in traditionaleducation. Neuron Labs Schoolacknowledges this niche and focuseson skill development, preparingstudents for the real world. The schoolassigns students various projects,making them do various presentationsto improve their listening,communication, and presentationskills. Mrs. Lakshmi asserts, "Webelieve that when students usepractical examples of concepts and areinvolved in projects themselves, theyfigure out the root of the concept andlearn it forever."The school believes that the concept ofThe Learning Pyramid validates thisfact which shows that the retention ofstudents from just listening to a lectureis far lower than the practicalinvolvement by the student using'Learning By Doing'. The school alsobelieves in the co-integration ofvarious subjects together, providing aholistic learning experience for thestudents.Mrs. Lakshmi gives an example bymentioning a methodology initiatedat the school, "For instance, we had25 | MAY 2022 | www.theknowledgereview.com
