Panchakosha Vikas

পঞ্চকোষ বিকাশ

Panchakosha Vikas is the developmental frame the National Curriculum Framework for the Foundational Stage borrows from Indian tradition: five sheaths, or koshas, each a layer of a growing person. Physical development, life-energy, the emotional and mental, the intellectual, and the spiritual or values layer. Its usefulness is not mystical. It is a checklist that refuses to let a school report on a child's alphabet and call that a report on the child.

Our own mark is an arch with a keystone in it, which is the same argument in a different language: the parts hold each other up.
