\u201cEshraf Saglam, Founder of Rainbow school<\/p>\n

Rainbow school is an international school established by Mr. Eshraf Saglam, a\u00a0Turkish educationist\u00a0in Seoul promoting multiculturalism and international diversity. With 260 students from 29 countries and 42 teachers from 6 countries the school is truly international and a role model for other schools to emulate. (www.rischool.co<\/a>).<\/p>\n

The School\u2019s logo has 4 colours signifying the four major principles the management believes in.
\n1. Tolerance (green colour) : With a truly international student body and teachers from various countries, tolerance is one of the corner stones of School\u2019s philosophy.
\n2. Integrity (Blue) : The blue colour in the school\u2019s logo signifies integrity which they promote through various means.
\n3. Diversity (Red) : \u00a0The school promotes and upholds diversity.
\n4. Success (orange) : With all the above mentioned qualities , the school leads students on the path of success.<\/p>\n

School Facilities<\/strong><\/p>\n

The school has an amazing learning management system which is entirely online.\u00a0 Every student, teacher and parent is provided a login into the system.\u00a0 In the system they have everything from attendance of the student, to homework assigned to them, grades, reading assignments, quizzes and so on. Also teachers give grades to students on every assignment along with remarks.<\/p>\n

Every teacher maintains a blog where they upload everyday\u2019s activity along with the homework which students can simply download from the blog.<\/p>\n

The management system is quite extensive as it allows parents to see what grades their child has and why is he getting those grades. It allows teachers to gauge the grasping capability of the students, it also allows the teachers to check if parents are logging into the system and keeping a tab on their kid or not.<\/p>\n

They have a comprehensive online library where books have been categorized for children of every grade. Also, parents can buy textbooks as well from the online library. The computer rooms have been equipped with latest high speed computers with latest software programs.<\/p>\n

Each classroom has an active board, wireless active slate for teachers and individual remote controls for children so that they can answer questions sitting in their seats. Text books are provided as E-books so that children can access then anytime, anywhere at home for in-depth understanding and option of flexible learning. In addition to learning management system, online library the management has various other additional tools.<\/p>\n

Students from grade 5 to grade 8 are provided with Ipad2 to introduce them to a variety of online programs and software purchased by the school. Widescreen monitors have been installed in each hallway for announcements and photo display.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

School Programs<\/strong><\/p>\n

With just 1:5 student, teacher ratio which is lower than most international schools around the World the school aims to provide personal attention to each and every student.
\nWith the learning management system they can dynamically gauge the performance of the students, and with the monthly PTA meetings communicate to the parents about the progress of their child.
\nRainbow has a D.E.A.R \u2013 Drop Everything And Read Program where everyone from teachers, administrators to students leave everything and just read for 20 minutes during the day.
\nAlso, they have home visits to check if children have a congenial atmosphere at home.<\/p>\n

Various activities are planned by the school for every week and for every quarter. The School participates in various International Olympiads happening across the World from US to Istanbul, Korea etc.\u00a0 The students have won accolades for their projects and at times have been the youngest to participate in such events.
\nIn addition, the school boasts of a small indoor gym and a play area for kids on the terrace.<\/p>\n

Future Plans<\/strong><\/p>\n

With accreditations like WASC already under its belt the School has started developing its own curriculum that lays emphasis on not just building fundamentals of science, technology and language but also inculcate basic human moral and ethical values that are universal which will eventually make them conscientious global citizens of the World.\u00a0 The school plans to extend classes till high school as the children don\u2019t want to shift to any other school after grade 8.<\/p>\n

Overall, a school for the future.\u201d<\/p>\n
