The Council for the Indian School Certificate Examinations, (ICSE) Delhi, is the premier educational Board in the country. It holds an annual examination known as the Indian Certificate for Secondary Education (ICSE) examination for Grade 10 students & Indian School Certificate (ISC) examination for Grade 12 students.

The ICSE syllabus has a distinct advantage over others. Its curriculum prepares the child for higher studies and competitive exams. ICSE's flexibility allows the student to opt for subjects of his/her interest. ICSE standards give the student an edge over their counterparts in higher studies. They have only two language papers English and Hindi as against the SSC students who have three language papers which are very difficult to score in. The marks are complemented by compulsory project work that requires the students to explore the subject and write his or her own understanding of it. It is very essential that we move with the times and our decision to follow ICSE curriculum is one such step in this direction.

All the streams that are open after State Board education are open to ICSE students.

It is a proposed ICSE school and will get its affiliation and recognition as per the ICSE norms. An NOC from the Govt of Maharashtra has already been obtained.

Certainly, provided the child is basically inquisitive and is not yet completely in the mould of rote learning. The ease of changeover also depends on the fluency of the child in the English language. Goldcrest High can assess this and counsel the parent appropriately keeping the interest of the child in mind.

Hindi and Marathi will be introduced as a second language from Grade 1 onwards and as a third language from Grade 5 onwards. Other Indian or Foreign languages may be offered in future.

There is a jungle gymnasium, and a play park for outdoor activities. Indoors we have a specially designed Activity Room that plays a major role in improving the children's motor and coordination skills. It has a puppet show area, a creativity corner, a doll's house, an art corner, a ball pool and a simulated market place. The Activity Room is much loved by the little ones and they do not want to leave it even when it is time to go home!

The purpose behind having a cafeteria is to enable the teaching of table manners and other social skills to the children.

The meals are nutritious and wholesome and are planned by our consultant dietician keeping the different age groups in mind.

Jain meals are also available.

Only vegetarian food is served.
