Strategic Leadership for Schools in a Changing Environment (SLSCE)
Strategic Leadership for Schools in a Changing Environment (SLSCE)
Venue: IIM Ahmadabad
Dates: June 13 – 17, 2022
Attendees from SNSF: Shilpa Khadse, Preeti Gautam, Neha Jain
Overview: The SLSCE program at IIMA for school leaders was an exhaustive week long learning experience covering a breadth of areas under the purview of school management and Leadership. The emphasis on Leadership was not by undermining the Managerial role. The significance of maintaining a fine balance of both hats was brought out beautifully. Knowing one’s limits is as important as overcoming self-limiting beliefs. And to overcome these, it is important to explicitly recognize one’s core beliefs and limiting beliefs.
The role of school leaders has transformed massively over time and it is all the more important to blend the head, heart and the mind to be able to bring in the innovation essential for transforming the educational experience of the learners.

38 students across Grades 3-10 attended Robotics Summer Camp conducted on 20th - 30th June. The project-based activities planned for this program help build science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) knowledge and improved problem-solving, critical thinking, communication, and collaboration skills by integrating the use of relevant digital tools hence, enhancing computational thinking skills.
With LEGO programs students explored the resources to design, build and program their creations. The Engineering program for senior grades introduced Arduino and 3D printers programming for creating professional drawings using the software and discovering how to start with dimensioned sketches and end up with complete 3D models.
The program in an intuitive way allowed students to bring their creations to life while sharpening computational thinking skills like logical reasoning, pattern recognition, and modelling simulations.
ANANDAM DECENNIAL CELEBRATIONS
The Noida Arts team proudly showcased the Anandam, a celebration in the physical space after two long years. This was a sharing of the AHA collective by grades 5 and 6 of 2021-22 batch, through a series of meticulously planned performances and presentations.
Anandam also marked the culmination of the Launchpad Program for the Arts, a period of time which has been critical in re-establishing the culture of learning through play in the physical space.
This year's Anandam presentation stems from the famous children’s book ‘Alice in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll. Each basket designed its presentation under a bigger idea that is derived from the artistic exploration of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, one of the most popular works of English language fiction.
Every art form has made a connection with the book through multiple concepts, themes, and ideas. The 2-day extravagant celebrations presented by the students of Shiv Nadar School Noida proudly displayed their learnings through their mellifluous musical presentations, immersive theatre acts, beautifully crafted dance pieces and breath-taking displays of art works along the school corridors.
