Selaqui International School, Dehradun, is going to launch Arjuna programme wherein students aged 12 to 14 years will be given quality comprehensive sports coaching and formal education in the school, said the school director Rohit Pathak while interacting with media persons on Wednesday. Selaqui International School is a residential school which also offers an integrated programme for IIT and Medical aspirants.
Under Gurukul programme, students are prepared for competitive exams and board exams. The main advantage of this programme is that it prepares students for multiple examinations and saves time, as they do not have to travel between coaching classes and school. Pathak said the students who appeared in their Class XII ISC examination secured good marks while 50 per cent of the total students qualified for the IIT-JEE [advanced].
He further said, “To select the students, we are going to organise a cricket camp between June 8 and 21. Based on their performance, students will be given scholarship. Enrolled students will be provided quality coaching.” Vice chairman of the school Maj Gen (retd) Basant Singh, sports director Shane Syss were also present at the Press conference.
