The school has adopted the I.C.S.E and I.S.C curriculum for the students enrolled in years 10 &12. The course provides an exciting, challenging and detailed introduction to a wide range of Biological topics. The students cover a great deal of practical work and consider this course to be an excellent preparation for further career options, allowing the teachers greater scope to explore topics in depth from the 7th year onwards.
