Scholarships & Financial Aid

Money should never end an education

This principle is older than the school itself — our founder personally guaranteed the fees of children whose families could not pay. Today that promise is systematised through three channels:

Merit scholarships — awarded on board results, assessments and all-round contribution; up to full tuition.
Need-based support — confidential fee reductions assessed by a welfare committee; siblings discounts available.
Zakat & sponsorship fund — audited fund covering full costs for eligible students, fed by community donors.

Around 1 in 7 students across our campuses receives some form of fee support.

Admissions FAQs

Applications for the August session open each December. Mid-year transfers are considered where seats exist — contact the campus office directly.

Preschool applicants are observed in a play session — no test. From Class I, children take a short, friendly assessment in English, Urdu and Mathematics matched to their age, used for placement rather than rejection.

Yes — the ideal window is before Class VI. Our counsellors help families weigh cost, university plans and the child's learning style before choosing. Later switches are assessed case by case.

Indicate financial support in your application or family meeting. The welfare committee reviews requests confidentially — the classroom never knows who receives support.

Historically a girls' institution, several sections now admit boys at primary level, and neighborhood schools are co-educational. Check with your preferred campus for current policy by class.
