Middle School | Overview - NPS International School

OVERVIEW

Middle School PROGRAMME

NPSI Middle School (Grades 6–8) supports students as they move from primary learning into greater academic independence. The programme focuses on building confidence, responsibility, and effective study habits while encouraging curiosity and engagement.
Learning is enriched through experiential classrooms, international trips, exchange programmes, and a strong pastoral care system that supports students’ personal and social development.

Curriculum Guide

Our middle school students acquire vital foundation skills and knowledge from a carefully curated curriculum, designed by our in-house academic experts and leadership team. We have created an integrated global curriculum which is based on requirements of both Indian and international educational systems.

For grades VI-VIII, the programme is designed as a pre-CBSE and pre-IGCSE foundation level programme in which some of the skills stressed in the IGCSE and CBSE are developed early. The academic programme promotes breadth of study, while the work on study skills that underpins the programme will be invaluable to students as they prepare for grades IX and X.

Students are given a holistic education with curricular subjects in Drama, Art, and PE.

Learning Support Policy

If a student obtains 50% or D or below in three or more subjects in two consecutive tests or exams in the middle school, he/she shall be identified as requiring Learning Support.
Learning Support team shall administer a Wide Range Achievement Test (WRAT) to identify the possible causes for underperformance and put interventions in place.

If, in the opinion of the teachers and the Learning Support Counsellor the problem is more severe, the parents may be counseled into taking the student for an external assessment to identify the specific problem and to recommend to the school remedial measures and accommodations that could be made
Depending on the recommendations of the external assessment, one or more of the following accommodations may be made for students with learning needs during exams:
- Having a scribe to write the exams
- Extra time allocated to complete the exam

VOICES FROM OUR COMMUNITY

Real stories from parents and alumni who’ve experienced the NPSI difference, where care and growth come together.

“At NPSI, the teachers are very experienced and well-educated. They have a good understanding of the skillsets that students require, and they share their expertise with the students, developing their skillsets over time and preparing them as future industry participants.”

“My English isn’t very good, and when I first arrived at NPSI it was very tough. I couldn’t understand the concepts being taught or the language my classmates were speaking, but my teachers are very kind and helpful. They help us with extra lessons and are very thoughtful. Whenever they think I don’t understand, they ask me if I do and help me with the concept.”!

“NPSI teachers are very nice and teach very well. They are often very helpful, they give extra classes and advice to help you achieve a good career in the future. The teachers are very professional.”

“NPSI is a holistic school as it provides not only curriculum-based education, but also opportunities for children to be actively engaged and achieve in extra-curricular and co-curricular activities. It offers a broad horizon of activities that children can take part in, ensuring that at each stage they are given the right exposure to what they can expect in the outside world, so they are better equipped before they leave the school.”

“What I like about NPS is the openness of the school, from the principal and head of school to the teachers. They are always open to answering questions and encouraging children to speak up, ask questions, and explore where they want to go.

I also appreciate how holistic the school is. My younger child is in primary school and they are given many opportunities in dance, music, arts, and sports, along with experiences like OBTs (Outbound Trips).”
