Curriculum supported by the My sCool Server

Is there a prescribed curriculum that the MSS is designed around?

The My sCool Server was designed after careful research of pedagogical tools widely adopted and recommended by educationists across the globe. However, coincidentally it also adheres to the key principles, recommendations and the approach proposed in the Model Computer Science Curriculum for K-12 schools (CMC). The proposed model curriculum explains how it helps establish the foundation and prepares the students for the recommended curriculum of the various central and regional boards as they progress through grades 9 to 12. In the absence of an objective, detailed and outcomes oriented curriculum, the CMC serves as a guiding light.

Likewise there is another more recent and comprehensive curriculum from CSpathshala which focuses on computational thinking. It is accompanied with pedagogical content in multiple languages and may be adopted. The My sCool Server has everything needed to accompany this curriculum and has the multi-lingual curriculum pre-loaded as well.

Do note that the prime aim of the My sCool Server is to simplify and solve the challenges related to deployment and maintenance of stable and reliable IT infrastructure in the educational context.
