Academic Year and Curriculum
The academic year starts from January and ends at December. Each year is divided into 3 terms, exams being held for all classes at the end of each term. Students move to a higher class if they pass the exams. All students from KG to Class 5 follow the same curriculum. After passing Class 4, they are offered a choice to follow either the International or National curriculum.

Famous quotes containing the words academic, year and/or curriculum:
“I was so grateful to be independent of the academic establishment. I thought, how awful it would be to have my future hinge on such people and such decisions.”

“Tomorrow in the offices the year on the stamps will be altered;
Tomorrow new diaries consulted, new calendars stand;
With such small adjustments life will again move forward
Implicating us all; and the voice of the living be heard:
“It is to us that you should turn your straying attention;
Us who need you, and are affected by your fortune;
Us you should love and to whom you should give your word.””
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
“If we focus exclusively on teaching our children to read, write, spell, and count in their first years of life, we turn our homes into extensions of school and turn bringing up a child into an exercise in curriculum development. We should be parents first and teachers of academic skills second.”
—Neil Kurshan (20th century)
