Our High School Programme focuses on the cognitive, emotional and spiritual development of 11 to 14 year-olds. It provides a structured system to support the needs of our students with a curricula that revolves around skills-based learning and self-reflection within a digital environment.
We cater to the educational needs of students from different diaspora. They have the choice between Indian (CBSE) and International (Cambridge) curricula which cater to the learning styles of different groups of students.
For international students, we have the option of IGCSE or IBDP curricula.
Our Bridge Programme is an important feature which allows our students to start at any time during the school term and receive the assistance they need to catch up with their peers. Rest assured that your child will be learning with his/her classmates as quickly as possible after their secondary school admission.
This specialised programme exists to help students of all grade levels make up for lost time, complete important lessons and classwork, and catch up academically with their regular class.
Our academic add-ons are programmes that give additional boosts to a student's learning curve through targeted studies, helping them focus on additional areas and concepts at no extra cost.
We provide STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering & Maths) related material that helps students understand key concepts in the subject by creating working models of these concepts; use online tools like HeyMath! to hone their mathematical skills and conduct detailed assessments through which the teachers understand every child’s strengths and weakness in particular subjects.
Extra-Curricular Activities (ECAs) include honing inherent skills in students like performing arts, leadership, entrepreneurship and innovation. These activities balance the learning environment in the school and allow students to be well-rounded individuals who can excel at anything, and be ready to face the world as global citizens. There are also course enrichment activities conducted in class after each concept (like quizzes, group projects or short tests).
For our students, the rigour of academics is well-balanced by proper exposure to sports through Co-curricular activities, physical education and a Cricket Academy.
COVID-19 outbreak is likely to have a major economic impact on all industries. With business impacted, cases of job losses or loss of income are likely to rise. A timely financial assistance scheme has been designed under the Global Indian International School (“GIIS”) called the Resilience Scholarship (GRS 2020), to allow students studying in any international school in Japan cope with the COVID-19 impact.
The Global Schools Foundation has been contributing to the educational needs of students through various programmes and initiatives. Through the Merit-Cum-Means scholarship, GSF plans to extend support through financial assistance, and make education affordable for parents across financial spectrums.
The scholarship is associated with each of the GEM in GIIS Nine GEMS pedagogy. Students who have received National or International recognition, or have contributed, in fields of sport, co-curricular activities including visual and performing arts, community service, innovation and entrepreneurship, showed extraordinary leadership skills are eligible to apply.

For the Indian Curriculum, assessments include two formative tests each term, one mid-term test and one final term examination.
For International Curriculum, assessments include ongoing formative tests throughout the term, bookended with two term-end examinations in the end.
We make sure that parents are involved in the education and growth of their children at every step.
All information about the student is shared with the parent through our customised portal - myGIIS - which acts as a communication platform between the two sides.
Newsletters and emails are sent periodically, while each parental query is responded to within 24 hours – unless it is punctuated by a weekend, public holiday or vacation.
