Welcome to Calcutta International School!
At Calcutta International School, we offer an environment where learning extends beyond textbooks and classrooms. Ours is a community rooted in respect, curiosity, and a shared commitment to nurturing every student into a confident, ethical, and thoughtful individual. We blend global perspectives with strong core values, aiming to develop individuals who will make meaningful contributions to the world.
In Junior School, we believe these early years are the most important in shaping how children see themselves and the world around them. Our approach fosters autonomy by encouraging children to think independently, ask questions and cultivate a lifelong love for learning. We value not just academic progress, but also emotional well-being, creativity, and character.
Our dedicated educators provide a safe, supportive, and stimulating environment where children are empowered to take ownership of their learning. Through this process, they begin to understand the importance of accountability—learning to reflect on their actions, persevere through challenges, and make responsible choices. We guide our young learners to be compassionate, resilient, and open-minded, preparing them to navigate life with confidence and integrity.
It is a privilege to serve as the Principal of the Junior School at CIS. Thank you for entrusting us with your child’s educational journey. Together, we will nurture kind, confident, and globally-minded individuals who embrace both autonomy and accountability in all they do.
Warm Regards,
Mrs. Pratima Nayar
Principal, Junior School
