FROM OUR PRINCIPAL’S DESK

Every new day dawns with different challenges. The future rushing towards us with supersonic speed has to be faced boldly. The aim of Amity is to equip the students to tread on the untrodden path with dedicated discipline and internal motivation to take success in their stride. To achieve success is one of the toughest challenges but the highly committed staff and students of Amity have been achieving it year after year.

In an increasingly interconnected world, today's young generation needs to be engaged, reflective and compassionate. We at Amity Global School, Noida (AGSN) endeavour to nurture and develop in each learner international mindedness, a sense of local as well as global responsibility and above all respect and empathy for all life forms.

Amitians must believe in themselves and in their lofty goals. They must make big plans, aim even higher and work tirelessly to always remain at the pinnacle of success. I have complete faith in their inherent potential to revolutionise the meaning of success and excellence.

IBDP

The IB Diploma Programme is a comprehensive two-year course of study during the junior and senior year. The vision of the IBDP programme is that students share a well-rounded academic experience that emphasizes critical thinking, intercultural understanding, and exposure to a variety of points of view The IB Diploma Programme provides a deep, thought-provoking program of study in six areas combined with the IB Programme core elements.

THE IB DIPLOMA PROGRAMME CORE • Theory of Knowledge (TOK) explores the nature of knowledge across all disciplines and develops an appreciation of other cultural perspectives. TOK explores the knowledge within the academic subjects as well concepts embedded within the academic subjects. • Creativity, Action, and Service (CAS) pushes students to learn and grow through involvement in artistic pursuits, sports and community service work, fostering an awareness and appreciation of life outside of academics. CAS experiences develop a sense of awareness and responsibility to contribute in a positive, meaningful way to the local as well as global community. • The Extended Essay (EE) is a research paper by which students investigate a topic of individual interest and acquaint themselves with the independent research and writing skills expected at college level. Through approximately 40 hours of work, students develop a research question, conduct independent research and evaluation of sources, and support a conclusion through use of research analysis and evaluation in a research paper. Students writing an EE are supported by an Extended Essay Supervisor and begin the process in the spring of their junior yer.
