The Middle School

These classes are taken to be the stepping stone for higher education. The academic curriculum hence is designed to instill a healthy respect for hard work and to develop sound formal study skills. The students are prepared for the rigorous academic requirements of the senior school, they are encouraged to do individual and group work, and become independent .Public speaking is encouraged, along with independent research work, as such activities help the students to gain confidence and push their boundaries of knowledge even further. Stress is given to discipline and punctuality.
Subjects Taught:
English, Bengali, Hindi, Sanskrit, French, German, Computers, Mathematics, History and Civics, Geography, Physics, Chemistry and Biology.
Every week, the children get some specified time with their Class Teacher, called the ‘Circle time’.

The class teacher tries to imbibe in the student’s moral values, group and team feelings through discussions, play acting and games.
