Admissions Open AY 2027–28 Nursery to Grade IX

Secondary School in Wagholi, Pune

Growing in confidence and independence.

Students deepen subject knowledge while developing critical thinking, communication, self-discipline, resilience and an understanding of the world around them.

In Secondary School, we provide a broad and balanced education that not only prepares students for public examinations but also gives them the confidence to achieve success throughout their adult lives.

These are the years when students take on more responsibility for their learning — going deeper into each subject, asking sharper questions and learning to manage their time, their work and themselves.
