Nahar International School (NIS, We, The School) is a Private Unaided Minority and an inclusive co-educational School affiliated to the Cambridge Assessments International Examinations (CAIE), UK.
The school is committed to ensuring a transparent, effective admissions process that is supportive of the school’s vision and mission, also the needs of its entire community, while remaining fully compliant with all applicable Government regulatory requirements.
The school looks for a mature, self-motivated learner who is academically prepared for advanced, concept-driven study. The student should demonstrate strong subject foundations, effective academic English, critical and analytical thinking, and the ability to apply knowledge independently. Readiness to manage increased academic rigour, meet deadlines, engage in research and discussion, and respond positively to feedback is essential. Equally valued are personal qualities such as integrity, resilience, responsibility, and global awareness, reflecting NIS’s commitment to developing confident, ethical, and future-ready learners.
For students seeking admission to Cambridge AS Levels at NIS, the assessment process is designed to evaluate academic readiness for advanced, subject-specific study. NIS uses CEM, a Cambridge assessment tool, to assess students’ developed abilities, learning potential, and readiness for post-IGCSE coursework. This is supported by a review of academic records, subject-specific assessments where required, and interactions to evaluate English proficiency, analytical thinking, and independent learning skills. The process aligns with the expectations of Cambridge Assessment International Education, ensuring students are well prepared to meet the academic rigour and depth of Cambridge AS Level programmes.
The Nahar International School follows an overall academic calendar from July to May.
The School has a five day week, and the timings are as follows:
