Academic programme:

Curriculum at St. Thomas School ICSE is framed keeping in mind the needs of the students in the 21st century. In order to enable children to function in this rapidly changing world, they need to be equipped with the requisite knowledge and skills that will help them adapt and reinvent themselves for new and challenging situations that they may face in future. The Academic and co-curricular areas are intertwined in such a manner that they help in holistic development of a student and also facilitate geographic mobility. The curriculum is designed and developed to support the vision and mission of the school. Through individualized education, we nurture academic excellence and cultivate self-confident, creative, communicators, and analytical thinkers. We at St. Thomas School try to put best practices in use.

The academic year begins in April and ends in March. It comprises of two terms for the Pre- Primary and Primary school. The school follows the CCE (continuous comprehensive assessment). The assessments are broadly classified as SA (summative assessment) and FA (Formative assessment). There are two FA's per term and the end of the term is concluded by a SA. As part of the curriculum reform, the school has student-centered and problem- learning to stimulate active learning among students.

The School also offers a wide variety of programmes and activities outside the regular curriculum to help broaden students learning experience. These include karate, Ball skill, Foreign language, Dance, Music, Yoga . This helps the students to become active participants in arts and cultural events, assisting them to appreciate cultural diversity and ethics.
