Senior ICSE and ISC classroom at Scholars' Home, best ICSE school in Lucknow

Taking Flight · Classes IX–XII · ICSE & ISC

Where ambition meets achievement

The Indian Certificate of Secondary Education (ICSE) for Classes IX–X, and the Indian School Certificate (ISC) for Classes XI–XII — taught with the seriousness the board years deserve.

Our Approach

Excellence, Examined

The ICSE is a two-year course covering Classes IX and X; the ISC follows for Classes XI and XII. Students appear for the ICSE and ISC examinations of the CISCE at the end of Class X and Class XII respectively.

Preparation runs wider than the board. Students are guided towards the NTSE and KVPY, and drawn into MUNs, debates, quizzes and national and international Olympiads from the primary years onwards — so that by Class XII, choosing a future feels like a considered decision, not a gamble.

The 2026 results speak plainly: a 100% pass rate in both boards, an ISC average of 83.65% with Niyati Saxena at 99%, an ICSE average of 86.51% with Ayush Yadav at 97.40% — and 47% of ICSE students above 90%.
