all about us

          The school is named after Dr. Howard Gardner, a Hobbes Professor of Education and Cognition at the Harvard Graduate School of Education. He developed the revolutionary Theory of Multiple Intelligences in 1983.

The theory maintains that very individual is intelligent in his own right, and IQ scores should not be the sole basis for measuring one's mental abilities.

Gardner further outlines the eight basic "kinds of smarts" - linguistic, logical-mathematical, spatial, bodily kinesthenic, musical, interpersonal, intrapersonal and naturalist - and says that every one possesses each to a certain degree.
