ACTIVITIES

Curricular Enrichment Scheme
The learning themes are often connected with practical experiences in Metropolis Education System. These practical experiences are provided to the students in terms of outdoor visits / field trips to different places to associate their classroom learning with real life experiences. Under the CES, different visits are arranged for students according to their age group and curricular demands. Competent programme coordinators establish links for the students between classroom learning experiences and these outdoor activities.

Metropolis Cultural Integration Programme
In 1999, Metropolis Cultural Integration Programme (MCIP) was introduced. This programme focuses on introducing the students with their countrymen and with the varied and peculiar culture of different regions of their dear homeland. Willing students from all the campuses join this programme which is usually arranged in the summer vacation and have a fruitful insight into the lives of the people of different cities and provinces. This programme also provides a chance to students to see and appreciate the beauty with which Allah has bestowed their country.
The members of Metropolis Cultural Integration Team are always welcomed by state officials in different parts of the country, including the Governors and Chief Ministers of different provinces. Education departments from different provinces always keenly receive this team and make valuable arrangements to facilitate the aims that this programme focuses at.

Lecturers / visitors
Personalities from different disciplines are invited regularly to the school to speak on a particular topic. Usually, the curriculum serves as the focus. These personalities provide beneficial knowledge to the students in the form of a lecture or a presentation. Care is being taken to maintain the link between the lecture and the curricular scope.
