About us

The Joy of Being at JGS

Discovering students’ innate potential and connecting to their authentic selves is the foundation and focus of our school. For four decades, Johnson Grammar School has been encouraging students to freely exchange ideas and opinions, explore leadership opportunities, and assume positions of responsibility. Through broad and deep curriculums, from ICSE, ISC and IB PYP to IBDP, we manifest in students the joy of learning everything. Our extracurricular initiatives for students encourage flexible attitude and risk-taking behaviour leading to the creation of unique identities. To guide our students’ emotional and rational intelligence, the teaching methodologies and pedagogies are comprehensive and contributing. Beyond academic studies at JGS, we offer various co-curricular activities to help students explore various interests, develop new skills, and enhance their overall personal and social growth. Many students who are now our esteemed alumni have made their way to other higher learning institutions within and are well placed at eminent positions outside the country. This is a standing testimony to the intent and purpose of Johnson Grammar School as a place for excellence and Joy of Being.

LEARNING & PEDAGOGY

Transformational structure
“Learning is beyond the process of acquiring knowledge, it’s the formation of identity and character”
At Johnson Grammar School, curriculum & extra curricula are created both in breadth and in depth to form a functional whole, developing students with a genuine love for learning. The coherent teaching methodology of JGS, teaches students to put use of sensory & motor skills to help them find what best works for them.
Education is not just learning facts but training the mind to think – is what we impart to students at JGS. We are a school that harness the power of research to drive innovation in learning. Students are continually encouraged to reflect and access the teachings themselves through trials and implementation.
At JGS, teachers help students to analyse the right pathways, as this is an imperative skill required to step on the road to success. Our teachings encompass helping students differentiate different curricular and extracurricular activities into parts, determine how to organize these parts and attribute how they are interrelated & distinguish between them. This methodology helps students to analyze a starting point to engage in the right subjects, courses & activities
At JGS, teachers aim to assist students to implement new learnings. Listening, reading, writing and expressing skills help them apply, explore & experiment the new learnings. JGS pedagogy teaches to apply learnings to questions rather than accept the received wisdom. By applying the knowledge gained, we encourage students to learn real-world aptitudes.
By understanding different types of experiences & activities of students, JGS helps them adjust in society. Interpreting, exemplifying, classifying, comparing and explaining different scenarios, aids them to understand, connect, relate and contribute to this interconnected world.
At JGS, learning becomes love, which then becomes a life-long treasure. The teachings and learnings are recited, retrieved, and remembered to be stored as treasures of knowledge in the minds of students. This leads to an all-around cognitive & creative development which will stay with them throughout their lives. At JGS, we always seek to provide an extensive pedagogy that will sustain children into their adult lives and launch them towards their future success.

Sri Mudiraj Memorial School - A SPECIAL INITIATIVE

Giving back to society what we have received
JGS, as it is fondly called and referred to by all of us, is a name that has made its mark in the hearts of many. It has been a constant endeavour of this well-knit family to give its children the best in its capacity like a parent who nurtures his/her child with utmost love, care and attention. Forty years back, we went out in the society with this vision under the guidance of Sri S.R.N Mudiraj, the founder Chairman of the school. He passed this legacy to the next generation and Dr. B. Chandra Sekhar, with his progressive vision and intellect took it to greater heights. The society consisting of parents, staff, teachers, ex-students, students and well- wishers has been rendering its impeccable support forever. JGS opines that the time has come for it to return to the society what it has received.
As rightly manifested in our School Song, Give me the strength to own the poor; Nor bend my knees before insolent might, the fraternity of JGS intends to contribute towards a larger cause. Through the 40 years of our service towards humanity, we have extended our hand to the people in need and in continuation to this effort, Johnson Grammar School, I.C.S.E has initiated a school for the less privileged. We have taken under our wings a small group of students from the have-not section of the society and placed them in the hands of experienced faculty. The management has decided to cater not only to their learning needs, but also the other peripheral requirements like uniform, food, books etc. The school is named after our most respected Founder Chairman and is called as Sri Mudiraj Memorial School.
