Affiliation<br />
CBSE<br />
Affiliated to Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE), New Delhi. The general objectives<br />
of CBSE are to provide students with a balanced education to facilitate geographic and<br />
cultural mobility through a shared academic experience. Subjects are studied concurrently<br />
