About the school: Dr. B.R. Ambedkar Schools of Specialised Excellence (ASOSEs) are choice-based schools for grades 9 to 12 that allow students to specialise in their chosen fields of study. The Government of NCT of Delhi has established Dr. B.R. Ambedkar Schools of Specialised Excellence in order to cater to students who have a demonstrated interest and aptitude in specific domains. The current education system provides students with a standardised, one-size-fits-all education. This leaves little scope for students, who have early awareness and interest in specific fields, to pursue specialisations of their choice. Additionally, the current education system puts little emphasis on aligning the curriculum and assessment with higher education and industry requirements. Therefore, the Delhi government envisioned a new set of schools that would create a new hallmark of secondary education.
