CNN Central News & Network–ITDC India Epress/ITDC News Bhopal : While most teenagers scroll through social media, Tanvi Srinivasan is building virtual reality experiences to help people understand Alzheimer’s disease. Vedant created an AI-powered research assistant for debate competitions. Sachit designed camera equipment that could survive studying the northern lights at MIT. These aren’t outliers at Oakridge International School – they’re the norm.
The Numbers Behind the Narrative
For eight straight years, Oakridge’s Grade 10 students have outperformed the global IB MYP average. This year’s score: 45.4 versus the world’s 37.71. An impressive 8 out of 48 students achieved the coveted 40+ points out of 45 in Grade 12. But here’s what’s interesting – when you ask the high achievers what matters most, they don’t talk about grades.
“The IB programme challenged me academically and nurtured my passion for learning,” says Kashvi Srinivasan, who scored 44/45 and chose Duke University over multiple offers.
Principal Kavita Sukhani states, “I am delighted to see the fruition of our promise to take children from where they are to where they aspire to be. These results reflect not just academic capabilities, but growth as caring global citizens.”
How Nord Anglia Nurtures Student Leadership
When Oakridge students traveled to the NAE Student Leadership Summit in Houston, they weren’t just attending workshops. Riya and Samyuktha presented their social impact projects – Suvriddhi OS and Health Mirror – to peers from around the world.
Students have also been awarded funding from Nord Anglia Education’s community investment fund for student-led social impact projects. The grants support ‘SuvriddhiOS’ ($18,600) and ‘First Aid for All’ ($995), both focused on UN Sustainable Development Goals.
