Boarders belong to one of twelve houses: four in the Junior School and eight in the Senior School. Housemasters and resident tutors support students’ residential life. School services include dining, medical care, stores and the F. G. Pearce Library. For a child’s health or welfare, the school advises parents to contact the housemaster or resident tutor first.
The school is affiliated to the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE), with English as the medium of instruction. Its academic approach includes interdisciplinary and experiential learning, with co-curricular work and environmental responsibility integrated into school life. The official site publishes Class X and Class XII results and lists departments covering sciences, mathematics, commerce, humanities, languages, IT, art, music and physical education.
Sports facilities include fourteen playing fields across a campus of more than 160 acres. Options listed by the school include athletics, cricket, football, hockey, basketball, tennis, squash, table tennis, swimming, skating, archery, shooting, horse riding, adventure sport and yoga.
