Classes 6 to 12

Middle School - Classes 6 to 12: Academically, the challenges increase with the inclusion of a third language - Sanskrit or French or Spanish, the detailing of History and Geography as separate subjects and science unravelling itself to the eager young minds under the banners of Physics, Chemistry and Biology .All with the excitement of their first examinations! The students are guided and counselled through these transitional years and the school works closely with parents to help our young adolescents come to terms with all the joys and pains of these growing years.

In the middle school, the curriculum includes programmes to develop side by side ofacademic skills ie strong communication skills through debates, elocution, extempore speaking and drama (DEED). Performing Arts,Physical Education, Art and Craft, Bridge the Gap (an environmental program), Perceptions (a communication cum sensitivity program), Computer classes, Dimensions of Learning (DOL) study techniques, to name a few complement the academic rigour and are time tabled classes.

The syllabus is enriched by teacher designed worksheets and subject integrated projects. Emphasis is placed on learning by asking questions, problem solving and through application. This is reinforced through curriculum related trips, workshops, seminars and films.

The curriculum in the Senior School consolidates and builds on the students’ academic and social growth. The emphasis is on investigation and conceptualisation as they begin their first phase of preparation for the ICSE, ISC Examinations, NIOS and the IB programme.
