The Award’s concept is one of individual challenge, giving young people a balanced, non-competitive programme of voluntary activities, which encourage personal discovery and growth, self-reliance, perseverance, responsibility to themselves and service to their community. The students in the age group 14-25 years can participate in four mandatory activities: Service, Adventurous Journey, Skills and Physical Recreation.
The purpose of scouting and guiding is to develop the inherent potential of the young people by providing them a number of structured activities in order to make them physically, mentally, socially, spiritually and emotionally strong and useful citizens of the nation. This is achieved through a combination of activities and programmes offered at the Unit level and a structured syllabus which offers programmes and activities through a progressive Advancement Scheme. In our school, we will be starting with two Scouts Units for boys of Class V and VIII.
American Field Services (AFS) — Kennedy-Lugar Youth Exchange and Study (YES) Program is an international, voluntary, non-governmental, non-profit organisation that provides intercultural learning opportunities to help young people develop the knowledge, skills and understanding needed to create a more just and peaceful world. The essence of any AFS programme is ‘Stay and Study’ in a different cultural setting. Participants live with a host family experiencing home and family life that is in many ways different to their own culture and routine. They have several short-term, class exchange and teacher exchange programmes that are available for the students and teachers of BK Birla Centre for Education.
The organisation provides opportunity for students to explore other nations and cultures, master new languages, and discover themselves. This affiliation provides young students at the school between the ages 15 to 18 a variety of intensive international exchange opportunities. The aim is to reduce prejudice, moderate conflict, and reinforce cooperation among people.
NIOS is “Open School” to cater to the needs of a heterogeneous group of learners up to pre-degree level. It was started as a project with in-built flexibilities by the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) in 1979. In 1986, the National Policy on Education suggested strengthening of Open School System for extending open learning facilities in a phased manner at secondary level all over the country as an independent system with its own curriculum and examination leading to certification.
