Frequently asked
What parents most often ask
+Are there formal exams for grades 1 to 4?
No. In line with Government of Nepal Curriculum Development Centre guidance for the Integrated Curriculum, early grades use continuous assessment — portfolios, observation, and projects — rather than high-stakes written exams. Children build confidence and love of learning first.
+What medium of instruction do you use?
English is the primary medium, alongside structured Nepali language development. Young children hear, speak, read, and write English across the day in a supportive, immersive environment.
+What pedagogical approach does Nawakunja follow?
A child-centered, design-thinking approach delivered through an integrated, transdisciplinary curriculum. Lessons use the 5E cycle (Engagement, Exploration, Explanation, Elaboration, Evaluation) and, for deeper inquiry, the 7E extension (adding Elicit and Extend).
+Do you support children with different learning needs?
Yes. Nawakunja is committed to inclusive education. We welcome diverse learners and adapt tasks and supports so every child can progress meaningfully.
+Where is the school located?
Mahalaxmi-6, Siddhipur, Lalitpur. Visitors are welcome — please call 9849034724 or 01-5709124 to arrange a tour.
+How can I apply for admission?
Start with a campus visit. After an informal interaction with the child and submission of documents (birth certificate, transfer if any, parent ID, photos), we confirm the seat and send the admission letter.
