A safe and secure environment is a must-have for a child to blossom and learn the way she/he should. We put a lot of emphasis on both physical and emotional safety. Some of the measures we take are as follows:

Physical Safety

  1. An integrated network of CC Cameras, Smoke Detectors, Fire Alarms, Fire Hydrant system, Public Address Systems, Electrical Fencing and Access Control systems are connected through state-of-the-art building management system.

  3. Disaster Management Systems including, Lock-down, Evacuation, Fire Drills and proper training to all members of the school community including the support staff.
