The setting in which children grow up shapes their entire future. In a highly competitive world, and especially in a developing country like India, parents have the monumental task of selecting the best school for their children. A lot of thinking, energy, and weighing of pros and drawbacks goes into providing the best education and facilities for their children because parents will go to any length to ensure their children’s future security.

Young brains require an atmosphere that assists them in developing critical life skills. As children’s minds develop, it is critical that they satisfy their need for academic achievement, creativity, and collaborative learning.

It might be difficult to find the ideal fit for anything. However, search or look around you carefully. You will discover the ideal environment for your children to refine their abilities and flourish academically, with new teaching methods and, most importantly, a happy environment for them to grow.

Candor International School is one such institution that has dedicated itself to providing children with a secure and safe future. The school has embraced an international syllabus and curriculum in order to prepare the students for a bright future in whatever they want to accomplish.

Fostering an Ideal Environment

Bangalore, the core of India’s IT industry and a hub for foreign enterprises from all over the world, provides youngsters with an ideal environment in which to grow while adhering to the worldwide standards that have become necessary.

Dr Suresh Reddy launched Candor International School in August 2011 after identifying this distinct niche requirement in the education industry. The school has a campus of 25 acres in one of Bangalore’s most desirable neighbourhoods, between Bannerghatta and Electronics City. Its prominent location allows for easy access to famous residential districts and connects well with the city, all while preserving a tranquil and acceptable environment for student grooming and progress.

Triggering Positive Changes

Candor International School aspires to be a lighthouse for young minds. The school aspires to be a catalyst for positive change for both national and international students, taking on the role of preparing students to be global citizens.

With this value-added strategy, the school aims to produce students who will safeguard the environment while preserving ethical and moral principles in an ever-changing social, economic, environmental, and political paradigm.

A Complete Campus

Candor School’s campus is set across 25 acres in a prime position in Bangalore and includes a six-acre organic farm to respect and appreciate farming, India’s major occupation. The school has an Administrative, Kindergarten, Primary, Middle, and Secondary block, which allows the school to communicate efficiently and keep day-to-day operations running smoothly.

Candor School, being an international campus, is also a WiFi-enabled campus, and its distinctive design is what makes the campus complete. For students who want to study and live on campus, the school offers boarding with first-rate facilities for boys and girls over the age of ten.

Classrooms, a play and sports area, labs, libraries, music studios, dorms, and a cafeteria are all part of the Candor School campus. The school’s infrastructure is meticulously curated and designed to be student-friendly and age-appropriate.

Academic Programmes

The school provides a comprehensive international programme for its students, with an academic curriculum from Cambridge and IB. The school has a 1:6 Teacher-Student Ratio to give specific focus to kids’ growth, keeping in mind the necessity for unique attention to children.

Candor International School provides the International Baccalaureate Primary Years Programme (IB-PYP) to its pupils in Primary School (Pre-K – Grade 5).

Middle School (Grades 6-10) curriculum is based on the Cambridge Syllabus. From Grades 6 to 8, the Cambridge Lower Secondary Syllabus is used, whilst IGCSE (International General Certificate of Secondary Education) is used in Grades 9 and 10.

Candor International School offers the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme and the Cambridge CAIE AS and A levels to students in grades 11 and 12.

Brainchild of a Visionary leader

Dr Suresh Reddy, the Candor International School’s Founder and Chairperson, is the school’s inspiration. Dr Suresh Reddy saw the need to provide quality international education facilities to young Indian students as an entrepreneur of a top IT company in the United States and as a Director of the Small and Medium Enterprise Consortium. He believes that the next generation must be educated in an internationally known educational system in order to build community and environmental activism.

Dr Suresh Reddy, an environmental activist, was honoured by Keisei University in South Korea in 2017 for his efforts to establish an environmentally friendly green school and earned an honorary degree in 21st Century Building from the same university.

Striking the Right Balance

The extensive student curriculum has made it harder to focus on pupils’ entire development. There is no syllabus in the world that focuses solely on theoretical knowledge. Even science has shown us that things that are theoretically attainable can be extremely difficult to achieve in practice.

Candor International School has created an academic ecosystem based on a well-curated syllabus that helps students and teachers to strike the optimal balance between theory and practice. The school accomplished this by involving students in a variety of activities based on real-world difficulties and the practical application of theoretical knowledge. Candor International School’s CAS – Creativity, Action, Service – is one such project.

Providing a Comfort Zone

Growth occurs outside comfort, and for most children, their comfort zone is frequently their home. For students’ general development and extensive growth, the school offers boarding facilities beginning in Grade 5, with a boarding capacity of around 200 students. In addition, the school allows students to select between conventional full-time boarding and weekly boarding, where they can visit their parents on weekends.

The school provides students with a home away from home with superb hostel accommodations and a separate dining wing, as well as specific rooms for entertainment. Candor International School was ranked No. 7 in India’s Top 20 Day-Cum-Boarding Schools by Education Today magazine for the academic year 2019-20.

The school recognises the value of sports in students’ lives and organises special training sessions for boarding students. Along with a six-acre organic farm, the school provides a variety of sports facilities for its students. A synthetic basketball court, tennis courts, football fields, cricket pitches, half-size Olympic swimming pool, archery arena, skating arena, athletic track, and gymnasium are among the sports facilities. Indoor activities such as Throw Ball, Snooker, Air Hockey, Foosball, Carrom, Chess, Table Tennis tables, and play stations are quite popular among boarders.
