About our Upper School
The upper school solidifies the core foundation laid by the Lower school. As a transition stage to the Junior High, the subjects are carefully handled to prepare pupils for easy acceptance at the Junior High level.
The Upper Primary Department is made up of pupils between the ages of 9 and 11 years.
The primary aim of the department is to produce smart and well-trained learners for the Junior High school department. To achieve this, there is a shared responsibility and coordination among the teaching staff for the efficient functioning of the department.
