Pastoral Care

Pastoral Care

OVERVIEW

Pastoral care is a supportive relationship that empowers those in crisis or transition to grow in the midst of change.  During a student’s time in school, he makesa challenging transition from childhood to adulthood which is completely taken care of by our school. We understand that parents entrust the care and education of their children to us and we,too are committed to nurture them with love and care. We offer extraordinary advantages in resources and choices at all levels through the three academic Divisions (Primary School, Middle School and Senior School), and the House system. These create inter-locking layers of pastoral care which enable every child, the reserved as well as the extrovert, to find opportunities to lead a confident, fulfilled and enjoyable life at School.

Pastoral care is the responsibility of the Matrons and attendants. This is further bolstered by an experienced and well-resourced Medical Centre based in School, and an informed and skilled Catering Department. Pastoral care isn't something that happens when things go wrong; it's a constant support network for your child’s time in School.

The Boarding Scholars reside in four houses i.e. Alaknanda, Bhagirathi, Gangotri and Mandakini for Boys and a separate hostel for Girls christened as Narayani. The boarding facilities are planned to provide a family like atmosphere to our Boarders. There is a separate Hostel for Junior Boys, Senior Boys and Girls. The facility of AC in summers and Room Heaters in winters is also available, if parents opt for this. Each hostel has a separate warden and attendants to take care of the students round the clock guarded by 24x7 with professionally trained security guards. In Girls Hostel, only female security guards and female attendants are allowed to ensure total security of the girl students. Imparting quality education with nutritious meal, tender care, all round development along with safety and security of the children is our topmost priority.

We, at GIS are committed to a holistic education and view education as having intrinsic values, quite apart from its function of increasing vocational opportunities. Our responsibility lies not only in the development of academic skills, but also vital non cognitive skills.

The team GIS comprises of well-qualified teachers and instructors supported by administrative staff.
