We encourage and support academic excellence and exceptional talents.
Hence, for such specially gifted students we do offer a limited number of scholarships through our scholarship programme for new students entering our Primary Years Programme.
These scholarships are offered especially for students whose families are experiencing clearly-demonstrated financial need in order to give them a chance at quality international education.
The students record and the family income are carefully reviewed by our scholarship committee and these scholarships offered are between 10% to a maximum of 20% of the annual tuition fee may be granted.
The scholarship may be renewed in subsequent school years, provided that the income and merit requirements are met. It can also be revoked at any time if changes in these requirements occur. The decision made by the scholarship committee would be the final decision.
In today’s digital era, we believe it is essential for every child to be adept at technology. In order to facilitate the right and ethical use of technology.
Using technology at the school level not only enables our students to develop vital technical skills demanded by employers today, but also enriches their overall learning experience.
Hence, from the PYP level they are introduced to computers, tablets, laptops etc. to support their learning requirements. But we are also particularly conscious that too much screen time should not be a cause of distraction for our children and hence, we maintain a good balance between books and software based learning.
Teachers communicate with parents on a daily basis at drop-off and pick-up.
Parent- teacher meetings are scheduled on a regular basis during which we review and discuss our children’s progress.
Communication with parents is an important part of our program. We also connect with our parents through Managebac, a paperless solution for enhancing student and parent communications.
Managebac is an online planning, assessment and reporting platform where parents can track their children’s reports. The access to Managebac is given to parents at the time of enrolment.
