Middle school (Classes 6–8) is the ideal time to awaken curiosity, sharpen analytical thinking, and build the confidence needed for national-level competitions. At Dolphin Public School, we offer a structured yet enjoyable preparation program that helps students confidently participate in prestigious challenges like Science Olympiads, Mathematics Talent Search, NTSE (National Talent Search Examination), Junior Science Olympiad, and other national talent searches.
This forward-looking initiative is fully aligned with the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 focus on critical thinking, problem-solving, and skill development beyond textbooks, as detailed in the official NEP 2020 document and supported by OECD insights on skill development advantages and foundational cognitive growth. It strengthens our dedication to excellence in CBSE education & pedagogy by giving students a genuine competitive edge right from middle school.
Why Middle School is the Perfect Launchpad
This age group benefits most from early competitive training because:
- Natural curiosity and learning speed are at their highest
- Logical and analytical abilities develop rapidly, building deeper understanding as emphasized in conceptual thinking strategies and early problem-solving practices
- Early exposure builds lasting confidence and removes fear of tough questions
- Strong foundations make senior-level exams and competitions much easier
Our Balanced & Enjoyable Preparation Strategy
We follow a smart, child-centered, and completely pressure-free approach:
- Weekly Enrichment Sessions
Special classes focused on advanced Science, Mathematics, Mental Ability, and General Knowledge. - Daily Logical Challenges & Puzzles
Brain teasers, pattern recognition, coding puzzles, and reasoning games to sharpen thinking, fostering skills highlighted in our project-based learning blog. - Mock Tests & Previous Year Practice
Regular simulated tests in NTSE and Olympiad patterns with detailed feedback and improvement plans. - Personalized Mentoring
Trained faculty provide one-on-one doubt-solving and strategy sessions. - Hands-On Projects & Research
Mini-research projects, science investigations, and math modeling that mirror real competition questions, connecting to our emphasis on experiential learning in the math mastery blog.
These efforts beautifully connect with our integrated lab activities in science, concept mastery in mathematics, and digital literacy through tech-based problem-solving tools.
Here are real, exciting moments of our middle school students deeply engaged in Olympiad and NTSE preparation:
