Founded in the year 2013, Somerville International School is the baby of the entire Somerville Family. As a premier educational institution of the NCR, we at SIS, hold a vision to excel in all spheres as we carry the ethos of the Somerville Schools forward with a renewed zeal and dedicated commitment. The school has witnessed an unprecedented positive growth and development in the course of the 8 years of its establishment with our first ever batch of Class XII students, all graduating with First Division and needless to say, a100% Pass Result. Over the years, SIS has evolved on several fronts – academic, co-curricular activities, sports, games and social service equally.
We strive to be an abode of knowledge that embraces each and every child with love and utmost care, envisioning an education system where students are prepared to face challenges of life believing that education should not just be a mere acquisition of knowledge, but also a balance with wisdom gained to survive and conquer today’s non-linear world. At SIS each child evolves in an atmosphere of love with a focus on sound moral values enabling them to grow as a compassionate and responsible human being towards society.
Our academic programme is built around the needs of the competitive world we live in. The holistic curriculum of our school enables each child to bloom in accordance to his/her innate potentials, transforming each child into a well-spoken and mindful individual.
Our classrooms at SIS create an inviting and a nurturing learning environment, designed to stimulate the mind and promote learning experiences with Tata Class-Edge technology installed in each classroom. Reiterating Confucius, “I hear, I forget. I see, I remember. I do, I understand”, the school has sophisticated laboratories that sanction an atmosphere of exploration and ample opportunities for the students to learn with hands on experience. The Science and Mathematics laboratories of the school enable students to interact directly with the material or with data drawn, using the tools, data collection techniques, models and theories of science. The school also has a fully-equipped Library to nurture young minds towards literary virtuosity. With a balanced focus on the arts, the curriculum offers Western Music, Indian Music, Art and Craft at all levels for students to become well rounded in the field of the Arts and Performing Arts. We also house a state of the art infrastructure for indoor and outdoor sports including a basketball court, a volleyball court, a badminton court, a lush green field for cricket and taekwondo as part of martial arts amongst other athletic events.
We encourage a strong focus on academics with individual monitoring and counselling for the students through ‘Mentorship’ to elevate each student’s potential to a higher level of performance. Our strategies involve direct contact with the parents by teachers who analyse and devise ways to help each child develop confidence in themselves.
From time to time, we empower our teachers with the training and resources that are needed to deliver high quality teaching and learning experiences, in order to bring out the best in our students. Each day is a challenge for our teachers and students as we innovate and symbiotically learn with Online Teaching and Blended modes of education, an essential of 2021.
At Somerville International School, each child is a promising vision personified, fully equipped to touch the infinite sky with a sound determination and a conviction that – It Should, It Could and It Must!
We believe in the golden triangle of the school, and the parents being the firm base that gives stability to each child reach the summit. As we build bridges of knowledge for each student to walk over oceans of ignorance with fortitude and gratitude, we uphold the belief, as written in the Holy Bible, in the Book of Proverbs 22: 6,
“Train a child in the way he should go and when he is old he will not depart from it.”
