In the growing milieu of schools in India that stake their claim to offering an international education Good Shepherd International School is a class apart. Neither is the school only one of many supplementary undertakings of a large corporate house nor is it one at the other end of the spectrum catering only to the basic educational needs of the underprivileged in the country based on a charitable notion. The school is not international by virtue of having the token foreign natives on their staff or student body or by bringing in value systems that are alien to the Indian educational tradition in a contrived manner.
Good Shepherd International School provides a cutting edge academic programme with state of the art infrastructure and facilities for not just the gifted but any upwardly mobile Indian students, from all over the world 40 countries who acquire excellent education in a completely Indian residential context, grow up being rooted in our traditional core values and emerge equipped in scholastics and in character to take on the changing world s challenging demands. This is what sets the school apart.
Our setting is idyllic. The school is located in a pristine 30 acre sprawling campus in sylvan surroundings of hills and tall coniferous trees, well-manicured lawns within our grounds, salubrious weather and a natural atmosphere that is absolutely pollution-free, satisfying a crucial need in today s world for students to be able to learn, observe, introspect and contemplate in a most desirable environment. Education in such a milieu is a rewarding experience for our students, truly their wonder years .
The School s Mission Statement reads : Good Shepherd International School endeavours to prepare each student for academic, social and personal success by creating a community of empowered and diverse learners striving to be globally minded citizens in an atmosphere of mutual respect, understanding and trust.
The school s foundational philosophy is to provide the best of modern educational practices for students without losing sight of our rich Indian culture and educational traditions of a rigorous work ethic, holistic development of mind and body as sacred temples, appreciation of the value of a good education and respect for the teacher or guru who imparts it.
Good Shepherd International School is among the first Schools in the world to successfully establish and promote the three internationally renowned pre-university examination systems:
The International Baccalaureate Diploma of the International Baccalaureate
Organisation (Classes XI XII)
The IGCSE Curriculum of the Cambridge International Examinations
(Classes I X), including the Cambridge International Primary Programme at
our Primary School Level
The Indian Certificate of Secondary Education and the Indian School Certificate
of the Council for Indian School Certificate Examinations (Classes I XII)
