A strong start in English, at a child's own pace.
The school says children in Classes I to III are never put under pressure. They learn at their own pace, and build good behaviour, ways of speaking with other people and social manners as they go.
English comes first, and the school treats it as the way into every other subject: Mathematics, Science, Bengali and the rest. What children learn in these three classes prepares them for the next stage.
- English
- The foundation of the Junior curriculum, taught as the key to learning in every other subject.
- Mathematics
- Fundamental and logical ideas, beginning with addition and subtraction taught with visual aids.
- Bengali
- Reading, writing and recitation, which build a child's ability to communicate and an awareness of culture.
Built across these three classes
Reading has a lesson of its own.
What changes at this stage
Library classes run for every level of the school, and a Librarian looks after them.
The school encourages children to read books, magazines, periodicals and newspapers from the library, to improve both their English and their ideas. The library was modernised for the new campus, and the school bookshop is beside it.

How progress reaches you.
The school year has two semesters, and a written examination ends each of them. The school uses a range of assessment tools alongside the formal papers and issues Progress Reports. To be considered for promotion, a student must reach the passing marks in the core subjects; the school states this rule for its Junior and Senior sections. Examinations and reporting has the whole year.
