Aurinko Academy is a K - 12 Progressive Learning Space in Bangalore that aims at strengthening the core of each child while enabling him/her to build a Toolkit for Life beyond a packet of certificates.

Aurinko Academy welcomes children and adults who desire a Free Responsible Learning Environment and want to embark on a Lifelong Learning Journey!
Nature and Nurture work hand in hand at Aurinko to facilitate learning experiences that enrich a child’s life. The Aurinko Ecosystem is the first curriculum of the child.
At Aurinko, the curriculum fits around the child’s needs to allow a flexible and enjoyable learning experience. The approach identifies the strong bond between all developmental domain: – motor/physical, cognitive, social/emotional, communication/language, and self-help
Teachers at Aurinko have one goal in mind, to plant a wish in the child’s mind
• to learn,
• to be content,
• to be responsible, and
• to love himself, the environment and the community.

Aurinko is interested in the journey of learning, in children being free, fearless ...
... while exploring and connecting with the subject matter that motivates and interests them and utilizes their unique capacities.
The Aurinko Environment allows a child to actively participate and socially co-construct knowledge with each other and the adult.
The Aurinko teacher is a facilitator of learning, rather than a director. Learning at Aurinko is an active process; the focus is upon the learner more than on the subject or lesson to be taught.
Through observation, reflection and diagnostic assessment we are able to identify the impact of the methodology on the child. This is used to modify the content, teaching strategies, and differentiation of instruction to suit the child’s needs.

Aurinko Academy is aimed at providing a learning environment for children where their core is safeguarded and strengthened with the help of the Aurinko Ecosystem – Parents, Family, Teachers, and the Community. Our ecosystem supports various programs, experiences and interventions so that children add various skills to their Toolkit.
