The qualifications we offer are
effectively passports to a global learning
community because they are embedded in
coherent curriculum values.
The system incorporates
many
optional routes allowing individuals to
emphasise their strengths, once the
key milestones have been passed.
The Advanced Level qualifications (A Levels)
in particular, allow for specialization in
depth by achieving a balance between
knowledge and skill, and by emphasising critical
thinking, independent learning and global
awareness.
It is a
matter of great satisfaction and credit that
our students have been admitted to such
reputed colleges and universities as
Presidency College, Jadavpur University,
Loreto House and
St. Xaviers College at
Calcutta, Symbiosis Institute and
Fergusson
College elsewhere in India, the
London
School of Economics and
the Universities of Manchester,
Wales and
Nottingham in the UK, the
Universities of
Pennsylvania, New Hampshire, Rutgers and
Chicago, and
Wooster and
Claremont Colleges in the US, as
well as colleges and universities in
Australia, China and Singapore.
TCS consistently achieves some of the best
results among international schools in
India. Students have received many
accolades and honours,
including the first
Manmohan Singh
Scholarship.
A number of
our
students at A Levels have received the
Cambridge
Brilliance Awards ever
since the inception of the awards
by securing the
highest marks in
India in subjects spread
across the three streams of Science,
Business Studies & Humanities.
This is a very significant achievement,
given that Cambridge has more than 210
affiliated schools in India now including
such long-established and prestigious ones
as Dhirubhai Ambani World School,
Ecole
Mondiale, International School Bangalore,
Hebron School Ooty, and Mallya Aditi
International School. It is certainly the
only international school from
the city
to produce such results.
But TCS is more than just good results, and
we are not exclusively interested in the
best and the brightest of the students.
Above all, we take pride in being a
child-centric school, and catering to the
different levels and attainments of a
cross-section of children. Our specific aim
is to nurture students so that they can
become:
| |
-
Creative Thinkers
-
Reflective Learners
-
Team Workers
-
Self Managers
and
-
Effective Participators.

Our teachers,
who are our greatest assets, are
well-trained in paying personalised care and
attention to every student, regardless of
his/her rank in class. Our small class-sizes help them in
developing personal rapports with their
students, and our various
co-curricular classes and activities
contribute towards the complete emotional
and social development of a child.
With an eye on the future lives of our
students and the work-environments of
tomorrow, we lay particular emphasis on the
intelligent and exhaustive use of IT in
education. Apart from being a separate
academic course, IT is widely deployed
across the board and integrated in the
teaching of many subjects. Computing is also offered as
an academic subject at both
O and
A Levels. TCS students have the
distinction of being one of the first
communities to have their school magazine
online.
Although a large majority of our students
are Indian, our student-body is
multicultural with pupils from the
USA, UK, UAE, New Zealand, South Korea, Thailand,
Burma and Bangladesh. The milieu therefore
is befitting for our increasingly globalised
world.

our teaching, curricula, ethos, student-life
and admission procedures. If you need any
