Academic approach
We teach for mastery using a clear lesson arc—Activate → Explain → Model → Practise → Check → Extend—so every student knows the goal, sees what strong work looks like, and gets feedback to improve it. Early Years combines Montessori/Reggio environments with CBSE outcomes and Cambridge-quality resources. Primary focuses on inquiry through activity-based learning. Middle and Senior levels add labs, projects, research capstones, and internships.
