A right mix of academics and extra curricular activities

CHIREC emphasises on values and morals right from the lower classes. A value-based education lies at the heart of CHIREC’s academic programs. Through activities crafted to promote students’ mental and psychological growth, CHIREC focuses on Life Skills to develop a sense of identity and responsibility with specific skills that are essential to life in society.

Experiential and Project-based learning encourages collaboration and team-work. For senior students, we offer Exchange Programs, After School Clubs, and emphasize global awareness and the development of passionate and open-minded attitudes by encouraging Community Service

Infrastructure

Academic
Our green campuses have some of the most comprehensive facilities to complement learning in and out of the classroom. Learning is enhanced through digital classrooms. We implement technology-based teaching strategies for effective learning. CHIREC houses it’s very own CHIREC Innovation Hub (C-Hub); a platform to spark students’ investigative spirit, promote creativity, help them think through problems and express their ideas through building things.

Amenities and Security
Every building at CHIREC is equipped with an elevator, wheelchair accessibility, and emergency fire exit. Integrated Surveillance Systems are installed in every campus and in school buses to ensure optimal security and safety of the students.
An RFID Tracking System is employed for students, parents, school authorities including the heads of the institution.

Green Initiatives

CHIREC’s green initiatives not only encourage sustainability but serve as a conduit to ingrain in students the need for reducing carbon footprint.
