Primary & Secondary Level

" There is no end to education. It is not that you read a book, pass an examination, and finish with education. The whole of life, from the moment you are born to the moment you die, is a process of learning."
- J. Krishnamurti.

The school follows the CBSE curriculum. The students work with the CBSE curriculum taught to them through intergrated lesson plans, hands on experience and guided discovery learning which helps them to observe, explore, investigate with creativity and make sense of what they learn. The curriculum encourages students to be active learners who explore, understand and participate in the world around them.Teaching and learning is based on Jean Piaget and Vygotskys principles of cognitive development. By exposing students to a wide variety of disciplines, both cognitive and non-cognitive skills are fine-tuned as they prepare for a well-balanced life outside of school.

This holistic approach to education introduces children to ideas and experiences that will help them become responsible, active participants in society.

English is the medium of instruction. Tamil, Hindi and French are the other languages the students learn.
