📚 Approach & Strategies
Our school closely follows the new senior secondary curriculum. Teachers appropriately change the contents of the subject syllabuses, the teaching methods, students' assignments, and the assessment criteria. The school continuously develops the contents of Liberal Studies and attempts to strengthen the essential learning abilities of junior students. Diverse other learning experiences are provided to further enhance students' quality of life. In the junior level, the school follows the Territory Wide System Assessment criteria whereas the senior levels follow the SBA assessment trend in the NSS. We grouped the existing subjects into seven Key Learning Areas. In the formal curriculum, we conduct courses in performing arts to develop students' multiple intelligence.

School and parents develop plans for the students together for an optimum support.
