Our Curriculum: A Perfect Blend of National and International Standards

At The Chirec International School, we understand the importance of providing a well-rounded education that prepares students for both national and global opportunities. That’s why we offer a unique blend of the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) and Cambridge Assessment International Education (Cambridge) curriculums up to Grade 5, with the option to choose between the two from middle school onwards.

Why a Blended Curriculum?

The early years of education are critical for laying a strong foundation in both knowledge and skills. By integrating the CBSE and Cambridge curricula up to Grade 5, we offer students the best of both worlds:

  • CBSE Curriculum: Known for its comprehensive and structured approach, CBSE emphasizes the development of critical thinking, problem-solving skills, and a strong grasp of core subjects like Mathematics, Science, and Language. It is widely recognized for its relevance to the Indian context, preparing students for national competitive exams and higher education within India.

  • Cambridge Assessment International Education: Cambridge offers an internationally recognized curriculum that focuses on a broad and balanced education. It encourages inquiry-based learning, independent thinking, and a global perspective. The curriculum is designed to be flexible, allowing students to explore subjects in depth and develop a strong foundation in areas such as global perspectives, languages, and the sciences.

The Transition to Middle School: Choosing Your Path

As students progress to middle school, they are given the choice to continue with either the CBSE or Cambridge curriculum based on their interests, future aspirations, and learning style. This flexibility allows students to pursue a path that aligns with their goals:

    • CBSE Pathway: Ideal for students who wish to continue their education within the Indian education system, the CBSE pathway offers a rigorous curriculum that prepares them for national entrance exams and higher education opportunities in India.

    • Cambridge Pathway: The Cambridge pathway is perfect for students who are considering international education or careers. With globally recognized qualifications, this pathway opens doors to universities and careers around the world.

Best of Both Worlds

Our blended approach ensures that students benefit from the strengths of both curricula in their formative years. By Grade 5, they are well-equipped with a solid academic foundation, critical thinking skills, and a global outlook. The choice between the CBSE and Cambridge pathways in middle school empowers students to tailor their education to their aspirations, ensuring they are well-prepared for the future—whether they choose to excel within India or on the global stage.

At The Chirec International School, we are committed to providing an education that meets the highest standards, nurturing students to become confident, capable, and globally aware individuals.
