The Aga Khan School, Kharadhar
follows the the Board of Secondary Education,
Karachi's prescribed curriculum but enriches
the education with a variety of national and
international educational practices.
The School curriculum strives to create a harmonious
balance between academic demands, sporting and
cultural activities and community life. It
challenges its pupils to be intellectually inquisitive
and socially conscious. The School believes
that while what students know is important,
the true measure of a student’s education
is the ability to analyse what they do not know.
Developing critical thinking and analysis is
therefore at the core of the School’s
mission. The School also encourages students
to respect and appreciate other people’s
cultures, social structures, values and beliefs.
Taken together, these objectives are designed
to help equip children with the tools they will
need to make their way in school, society and
an increasingly interdependent world.
Education is no longer treated as individual
subjects such as Chemistry, Mathematics, Zoology
or Economics. Instead, similar subjects are
clustered and redefined as a learning area bringing
a holistic approach to education.
