“Excellence is achieved by the mastery of fundamentals.”     Vince Lombardi

 

DPS STS will follows a pattern of 16 years of schooling comprising the following:

 

4 years of Preparatory Schooling (Play group, Nursery, Junior KG & KG).
10+2 years of Primary, Secondary & Senior School

 

Medium of Instruction: English.

 


DPS STS School Dhaka believes in "Learning by doing" and follows the methodology where an intellectually challenging academic programme both inside and outside the classrooms is offered.

 

Our goal will be to ensure that every pupil gives his or her best and we will achieve this through small class sizes of 30 pupils, and close monitoring of each pupil’s progress. Academic standards will be high and will be fostered through a sense of purpose and a positive working environment. Well qualified & experienced teachers have been appointed, who are knowledgeable, capable of using innovative teaching methodology with a  passion for  their subject as well as providing knowledge, guidance and motivation to the pupils.

 

We are going to help, guide, motivate & prepare the students for IGCSE Cambridge International Diplomas (Age group 14 - 16 years) & subsequently for the A level (Age Group 16 -18 Years).

 

Emphasis is put on study skills so that pupils become independent learners and become self-reliant. Excellence is fostered in a stimulating yet supportive environment and pupils learn to research and extend their knowledge, engaging in individual projects, group work and presentations. Extensive use is made of the library, as children are encouraged not only to read for pleasure but also to develop an appreciation of knowledge and literature and the use of factual resources. The School possesses two separate libraries for Junior and senior  students.
