Side by side

Two routes to the same examination

The preparation is the same in both. What differs is where your child lives and studies, and how the day is shaped. Neither is better; they suit different families.

Methodology

Our Learning Methodology

A repeating cycle, not a timetable of lectures.

  1. STEP 01

    Learn

    Subject teachers cover the full AISSEE curriculum — Maths, English, GK and Science.

  2. STEP 02

    Practise

    More than 5,000 practice questions, worked through in study hours and at home.

  3. STEP 03

    Test

    A test every day, and a full-length mock exam every week under timed conditions.

  4. STEP 04

    Analyse

    Every mock is analysed with the student, and the outcome is shared with parents.

  5. STEP 05

    Correct

    Doubt-clearing sessions close the gaps the analysis found. No backlog is carried forward.

  6. STEP 06

    Repeat

    The cycle runs again on harder material, week after week, until the exam.

The cycle repeats every week until the exam

  • Food and accommodation
  • Experienced teachers, and three retired defence officers involved in training and guidance
  • Sports and extracurricular activities
