We are deeply honoured to be ranked India’s #1 vintage legacy girls day school for the third consecutive year. This award is recognition of our continuous commitment to academic excellence and holistic development for 160 years. Our top score under academic reputation is recognition that our girls have consistently performed exceptionally well in class X board exams, with many scoring above 95 percent. In St. Mary’s, Pune, academic rigour is supported by excellent co-curricular and sports education with our girl children excelling in regional, state and national-level competitions. This explains our top scores under the sports and co-curricular education parameters. As we look forward to building on our legacy, we are excited to announce the launch of the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme. This marks a new chapter in our journey to provide international certification while remaining rooted in our legacy” — Caroline Diane Ross (centre left), Principal of St. Mary’s School, Pune which has 2,763 girl students mentored by 150 teachers.
