And the Academic Supremacy Continues…

Shishyans have done it again. Shishyans of Grade 3 to 10 have been benchmarked AT PAR with the top 10 ASSET Schools of India, thereby affirming our commitment to providing a world-class education and ensuring that our students receive the best possible opportunities to excel and grow academically.

A one of its kind, internationally acclaimed national level benchmarking  test, Assessment of Scholastic Skills through Educational Testing (ASSET) provides feedback on real learning to students. It pinpoints their academic strengths and weaknesses thereby giving them an accurate picture of where they stand with respect to their peers.

The Ei ASSET is taken by over 350,000 students in over 1,000 best English medium schools every year. Its purpose is not to identify toppers, but to test how well all the students have understood the concepts underlying the school curriculum and not just how well they remember the facts given in the textbooks. 

Here are some insights from the report received for the year 2023!

• All Shishyans have benchmarked AT PAR WITH TOP 10 ASSET SCHOOLS while 3 Grades have benchmarked ABOVE THE TOP 10 ASSET SCHOOLS!
• All Shishyans have benchmarked ABOVE AVERAGE NATIONALLY
• All Shishyans have benchmarked ABOVE AVERAGE WITH THE NEAREST METRO-MUMBAI
• All Shishyans have benchmarked ABOVE AVERAGE IN THE WEST REGION OF INDIA

We are thrilled to congratulate you on the outstanding academic achievements demonstrated this year. Our students have set a new benchmark for excellence with remarkable performances across all subjects. Your hard work, dedication, and commitment to learning have truly paid off, and we couldn’t be prouder of the collective effort from both students, educators and parents. Thank you for your continued support, and we look forward to more successes in the future.
