Implications for Gurukul system based schools

On the basis of the inset monograph and this blogger’s work in the areas of continuous progress system of education, use of self-paced study units, multilevel learning in vertical grouping, and micro-credential based daily learning mastery, the implication for the schools being run on the Gurukul model is the they have to have each classroom to work as Guru’s Asharam  with  25-30 students in each Asharam with the Guru teaching all the subjects either teaching separately or organising an integrated curriculum with monthly unit plans, trimester system or semester system with formative assessments.


Classrooms as Ekal-Guru Asharams

The class setup could be as follows to permit vertical grouping for progress through study units for self-paced mastery learning


Integrated vertical grouping scheme for general education up to grade ten can be as follows


  • 3-6 years: Adhar Shiksha Asharam (pre-primary and grade one)

  • 6-8 years: Shiksha Prarambh Asharam (grades 2, 3, 4, 5)

  • 8-14 years: Shiksha Madhya Asharam (grades 6, 7, 8)

  • 14-16 years: Samanya Uch Madhymik (grades 9, 10)


However, for the +2 stage usual streaming of students with subject specialists may be done
