It is a rigorous course of studies that offers a broad and balanced curriculum which is recognized by universities in India and internationally as it provides a strong foundation for study at degree level. This often leads the students towards receiving college credits when they embark on their university studies.

Students study six subjects, one from each of six groups, three of which are studied at Higher Level and Three at Standard Level. In addition, students follow a Theory of Knowledge course, submit an Extended Essay and complete the school’s Creativity, Action and Service (CAS) programme.
