How big are the classes?
Section sizes typically range from 25 to 40 students. The school will confirm exact section size during the interview based on the grade you'll teach.
Which curriculum does the school follow?
The Tigerish School follows the CBSE curriculum, so teaching, assessment and reporting align to that framework.
