The Montessori Method is practised in the pre-school years.
This is followed by the Cambridge Primary Programme till class V.
Checkpoint Board Examination at the end of class VIII is conducted followed by the CAIE Examinations of Classes X, XI & XII.

We take pride in being an institution of learning where we combine the best of Montessori and traditional methods to stimulate the child’s intelligence and ability to think and reason. This sets an excellent pace of learning for the future, while ensuring their optimal intellectual, physical, social and aesthetic development.

The Pre-school is open to children of ages 2 1/2 years and above. The timings are 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.

The subjects taught are English Language and Literature, Mathematics, Science, Social Studies and Computers. There is a choice among Hindi, Bengali and French.

The activities offered are Art & Craft, Music, Dance, Public Speaking, Quizzing, Debate, story telling and indoor & outdoor games.

The primary section too follows the Cambridge International Primary Programme. The teaching is based on the principle of concentration and activity. This helps the child to acquire knowledge through his own active endeavour. The underlying guiding principle is “Learning by Doing”.

The subjects taught are English Language and Literature, History, Geography, Mathematics, Computer and the Science subjects. The students are given a choice among Hindi, Bengali and French.

Classes are interactive and hence interesting. For most subjects, project work is done in school. This helps in building team spirit and co-operation among the children.
