In the early years, the curriculum emphasizes foundational skills in literacy, numeracy, and cognitive development, incorporating activities like art, music, and physical education to promote holistic growth.
From Grade 1 onwards, students can choose between two academic pathways:
Indian Certificate of Secondary Education (ICSE) Curriculum: This pathway focuses on a broad spectrum of subjects, including languages, mathematics, science, and social studies, encouraging analytical and practical skills. Students following the ICSE curriculum typically prepare for the ICSE examinations in Grade 10 and the Indian School Certificate (ISC) examinations in Grade 12.
Cambridge International Curriculum: This pathway offers an international perspective with a curriculum designed to develop learners' skills in creative thinking, inquiry, and problem-solving. Students usually undertake the International General Certificate of Secondary Education (IGCSE) examinations in Grade 10, followed by the General Certificate of Education Advanced Subsidiary (AS) and Advanced (A) Levels in Grades 11 and 12.
