Student Testimonials
Changing school is not an easy experience for any adolescent. I was also sceptical and scared about adjusting to a new environment. This is because I have always found it difficult to express my feelings to teachers as I was only questioned for my academic performance. Pressure to crack IIT in the future and words like “failure” being thrown at me – were too much to take. Hence, my parents made a conscious decision to shift me from CBSE to IGCSE at AIMEE International School.
The first few weeks were a little difficult for me as I was taking a big leap. But at AIMEE, I share a good bond with my teachers and they support my opinions. It is quite a different experience for me as a new student. Recently, we also started a mentorship program wherein each student of grade 9 is paired with a teacher. The students can meet their mentors once a week to share any concerns (academic or non-academic) and seek guidance. The opportunities that I have been exposed to in AIMEE, such as anchoring the Doctors’ day event and leading the March Past as a First School Pupil Leader made me realise my true potential and from there on it was an uphill curve.
