HOW DOES OAKRIDGE ENSURE THAT ITS TEACHERS ARE EFFECTIVELY IN SYNC WITH THE VERY DIFFERENT KIND OF SCHOOLING THAT IT PROPAGATES?
The teachers of Oakridge, though they generally come from the regular conventional kind of schools, have to go through a rigorous process of recruitment that identifies people who have a strong base in the subjects of their choice, are creative and child-centred in their approach, desire change and are willing to learn. Before they start teaching, Oakridge teachers are made to go through several in-house orientation programmes regarding the philosophy and focus, the general systems and methodology, the evaluation system and the like. In addition, all of them are provided a 10-day training in using computers for effective classroom teaching. Primary teachers have to do the PYP Introductory workshop organized in conjunction with the IBO. Thereafter, they go through several workshops and re-orientation programmes throughout their tenure at Oakridge.
