International School in Bangalore, India

Stonehill International School Bangalore:
Located in Bangalore, Karnataka in southeastern India, Stonehill International School was founded to meet the highest educational expectations of Bangalore's rapidly growing multinational community. Stonehill will be the first school in Bangalore to implement all THREE programmes of the IB (International Baccalaureate). We live in an interconnected and complex world that is changing at an unprecedented pace. Preparing our children to succeed in this challenging environment demands a real world based approach to education. Stonehill is a school for a diverse student body, with a global faculty and an international curriculum. We believe our particular location in India, gives the Stonehill community of learners an incredible opportunity to examine change, explore the interconnectedness of issues and develop a global perspective. To offer an educational experience that is truly international, Stonehill invited the Council of International Schools (CIS) to be its consultants.

Life at Stonehill revolves around an active and happy learning community of students, teachers and parents representing many nationalities, cultures and languages. We realise that our school will be a first point of interaction for many expatriate families moving to Bangalore. To make each family feel welcome and included, and to assure parents of a safe and secure schooling environment for their children, we encourage open channels of communication. Through informal get-togethers on campus, discussions at the specially assigned ‘parent room' to service-oriented projects which involve meaningful participation with local communities, we create opportunities for families to quickly belong to a supportive group of friends and get involved with the school at multiple levels.

Communication at Stonehill capitalizes on technology and the advantages of virtual connectivity. We are also implementing state-of-the-art software to offer secure and interactive online systems of communication that will supplement the teaching process, streamline assessment procedures, give instant access to student reports, maintain archives and enhance the overall effectiveness of the learning experience.

Stonehill is an education initiative of the Embassy Group - one of India's leading real estate developers, headquartered in Bangalore.

PYP (Primary Years Programme) for Nursery to Grade 5; MYP (Middle Years Programme) for Grades 6 to 10; International Baccalaureate Programme Diploma Programme (IB/DP) for Grades 11 and 12. Stonehill currently accepts students aged 4 to 14. Programmes are taught in English.

Stonehill provides a range of extracurricular activities to meet the varying interests and needs of students. The programmes will be designed to enhance the curriculum as well as build life-long interests and hobbies.

Stonehill is extremely fortunate to be located next to the Embassy International Riding School, one of India's top equestrian facilities. Horse riding will be an extra-curricular activity, with opportunities to compete as part of a Stonehill equestrian team.

Course work in the Stonehill curriculum requires students to learn through real world problems and have real world experiences. Extended, and often overnight, field trips are an essential component of learning, especially for the higher grades in subjects like biology, geography and economics. They provide realistic opportunities to demonstrate the interconnectedness of learning.
