Learning At TAC School
At TAC School, every young learner is a winner. We are focussed on enabling growth for all our learners. To achieve this, we have developed a specialized Diagnosis Test; which is not a typical entrance exam, but is a mechanism through which a learner’s current academic standing is analyzed.
For the analysis, we have set four parameters in the form of colour codes viz. Yellow, Orange, Green, and Pink
Here, students scoring less than 50% marks are encouraged to take up a retest.... (second diagnosis) after being subject to thorough revision and support by the respective subject faculty. This is done through personalized mentoring, and to ensure that the student scales up to the Orange band in the next round of diagnosis. Here, our key focus is to ensure that students scale up one step at a time and gradually get to the Pink band where they are in a position to excel in their Academics.
Curriculum
At The Academic City School, we have designed and developed a challenging curriculum to create an unmatched depth in learning; whilst preparing students for various board examinations such as Central Board of Secondary Education (Secondary and Sr. Secondary), and Cambridge Assessments (IGCSE and A Levels).
Our integrated programme is also designed to provide seamless preparation for undergraduate courses in India for National Testing Service (NTS testing) such as JEE, NEET, CLAT, NATA; along with...….preparation for various qualifying examinations of foreign universities such as AP, SAT, UCLAT, and more.
TAC School Core Curriculum
Academic Structure at TAC School
The Academic City School is affiliated to both the National Board – CBSE and International Board Cambridge Assessment (proposed). At the Preparatory Stage (for Grade IV and V) and Middle school, we follow an interdisciplinary approach where students learn the national curriculum in depth and seamlessly progress towards the international curriculum; thereby deriving the best of learning from both worlds.
During the onset of Secondary Schooling (Grade IX), students make an informed choice between CBSE and Cambridge assessment through multiple expert consultations and counseling for their board of education at both secondary and Sr. Secondary levels.
At TAC School, the curriculum offers continuous and constructive challenges for students from a young age to test the tenacity of their cognitive ability. Every student at TAC School prepares themselves for application, analysis, judgment and evaluation.
Opening the horizon of this unmatched dimension of learning makes an The Academic City School stand apart. At this juncture, our specialized Individual Progress Plan (IPP) is a benchmark programme to support the uniqueness of every child.
Continued improvement of learning excellence is very individualistic and an inward process at TAC School. Students take their holistic and individual learning to the next level by engaging and reflecting upon their learning through a specialized guiding process with teachers/mentors. This is a cycle of four weeks of action and support with clear, measurable and achievable individual goals. Our students also practice the art of ‘KAIZEN’, for continued improvement and thereby making it a habit for life.

We are in the process of setting up an elaborated makerspace for Engineering, Biology, and Organic Farming.
