The school is affiliated with the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE), the International General Certificate of Secondary Education (IGCSE) and the International Baccalaureate's Diploma Program (IBDP).[1][2][3][4]
Raahgiri Days[]
The program originated in the school when 6 Grade students worked on a project to make Gurgaon a cycle-friendly city. The project later evolved into advocacy for non-motorized days, and in collaboration with local civil society organizations, came to be celebrated as Raahgiri Day. The days are now held in 11 cities in India and the movement continues to gain momentum.[5][6][7]
