Inclusive Education Program

INCLUSIVE EDUCATION PROGRAM

BECAUSE EVERY STUDENT DESERVES ANOTHER CHANCE.

Einstein once remarked “Everybody is a genius, but if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid.”

Not every student’s competencies are accurately measurable in the way an education system could standardize.  Many exceptionally talented and gifted students don’t cut it in the board exams due to various reasons. However it does not mean that they are: academically incompetent and hence do not deserve a second chance,  should not get the best quality education that their counterparts are eligible for. To address this issue, New Shores Governing Council decided to launch ‘Inclusive Education Program’  in 2014 to provide 2nd PUC/12th incomplete students an opportunity to complete 2nd PU/12th standard qualification, and progress to undergraduate program affiliated to Bangalore University. Since 2014, the IEP has helped over 5800 students to overcome their PU exam failure without wasting a year and pursue degree under Bangalore University successfully.

New Shores along with SASE- System for Alternative Schooling and Education facilitates bridge course and credit transfer scheme to complete the 12th standard qualification from Northwest Accreditation Commission.  The 12th standard qualification from NWAC is fully recognised by the Government of Karnataka, Government of India, AIU, MHRD, COBSE and all other statutory government bodies in India.

What next after the 2nd PU failed students join the degree program? The students coming in the classroom will have all the educational components same as other merit students, there is no distinction between students who come via Inclusive Education, and those through regular merit admissions. As a matter of policy, students credentials and academic background are kept confidential, enabling  students to study confidently with other students.
