The Head of School
Ms. Rima Singh
A s the curtain falls on yet another
academic year, I reflect on not just
that but also the last five years
spent as the founding head of DPSI.
I believe that I have had the opportunity
to work with a great set of people be
it the students, the staff or the parent
community. Just as anyone would, I wanted
everything to be perfect, but it was not
and there were great challenges, greater
failures and even greater successes. The
thing that kept me going was the belief
in the school community’s support and
their commitment to the school’s vision. These challenges,
struggles and above all the perseverance to overcome it all are
experiences that helped me and all at school grow from strength
to strength.
At DPSI, we believe in many paths to learning. For us, teaching
and learning includes the latest trends in education which include
growth mindset, Bloom’s taxonomy, digital literacy, personalized
learning, project-based learning, social-emotional learning, game-
based learning and so much more. But, most importantly, we
have always focussed on developing a set of core values in our
whole community which have become the cornerstones of our
character. I have had the pleasure of witnessing young students
delivering their service projects not only with confidence,
passion and commitment, but with a level of diligence and
cultural sensitivity which is incomparable to any other. Of
course, rigorous learning and wellness has been possible because
of the support of an inclusive and collaborative community.
