Honored with four international and three national awards, for both academic excellence and extra-curricular activities, Ahlcon International School believes education goes far beyond the four walls of the classroom.

With 11 laboratories and four IT-enabled learning rooms, the school's campus, spread over 8,000 sq metres, is equipped with state-of-the-art technology for innovative teaching — which made it win the British Council international school award 2010. The school envisions imparting education and creating global leaders out of students from all walks of life, including slow learners and the physically challenged.

It has 18 diverse clubs for students and a dedicated annual budget for teacher training programmes, facilitating regular skill building. Along with participating in ongoing exchange programmes with schools in the UK and Germany, Ahlcon students excel in sports such basketball and swimming. The school also provides facilities for shooting, yoga, judo and squash.

"Parents today are looking at holistic development, not merely academic excellence," said Principal Ashok K Pandey.

"Our infrastructure, curriculum and teacher training programmes are aimed at imparting life skills along with academic excellence."
