Laboratory

The School has well equipped laboratories for Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Computer Science and Maths. Students are encouraged to use these laboratories to learn through experiments. Every year latest instruments, specimens, charts etc. are purchased for these laboratories. Today, high school science education aims to provide scientific literacy for all as part of a liberal education and to prepare students for further study, work, and citizenship. laboratories have been part of high school education for two centuries, yet a clear articulation of their role in student learning of science remains elusive.

Biology Lab

Biology laboratory is well equipped with interactive boards. All the specimens are exhibited in the glass cupboard. All the charts are hung on the wall to help the pupils learn easily. The Human Skeleton System kept in the lab attracts everyone. The laboratory apparatus ranges from simple slides, test-tube, petridishes to the composite microscopes of varying powers to observe samples and organisms closely. Besides the aforesaid the laboratory also has charts, models and specimens meant for demonstrations.

Chemistry Lab

The Chemistry Laboratory provides a platform for students to nurture the budding scientist within them. The laboratory is furnished with interactive boards for a virtual real life learning experience. The Lab is provided with the state- of- the art devices like- Fume hood, Distillation unit, Electronic weighing machine, Bunsen burners, beakers and flasks. The acids and other reactive chemicals are stored in separate locked cupboards as a further precautionary measure. The apparatus includes the common place strikers, mortar and pestle, clay triangles, watch glasses, crucibles, crucible tongs, chemical spoon, stirring rods, filter funnels and a variety of stoppers.

Physics Lab

Southside International School is proud to have a sophisticated Physics Laboratory with the latest facilities that equip the students to have hands on experience. The Flat-topped tables used as student workstations allow multiple arrangements and combinations for laboratory work and small-group activities. The equipment ranges from the commonly found lens, magnet, beam balance, spring balance and glass prism to the advanced apparatus like voltmeter, ammeter and resistors and spectrometers to name a few. The laboratory is also equipped with an Interactive board that allows the teachers to incorporate the latest technology in their lessons to arouse the interest and curiosity of the students.

We have a Pucca physics Lab under the banner & PM’s Atal Tinkering Project.

Curriculum Design

  • We follow the Tamilnadu Government syllabus. Hindi and G.K. are taught as special subjects. Southside provides holistic education based on three major domains: Personality, Academic Strength and Communications skills.
  • All round development of students is ensured through two complimentary processes. Each student is assessed on the various parameters of each of the three domains. This ensures that they focus on these areas and produce creditable performances. Simultaneously, through our tutorial system each teacher and specially appointed coaching staff monitor students round the year to ensure that regular coaching and counselling is available to them.
  • At the beginning of the academic year, students and teachers get together and set targets for achievement in each of the parameters that are assessed. Their progress is thereafter monitored regularly right through the year by the teacher and the coach and interventions provided whenever necessary.
  • Utmost importance is given to the inspiring students to learn. The school firmly believes that no real learning takes place unless the teacher desires to learn.
  • The teachers, principal and the school management review this periodically.

TC Issuing Procedure

  • T.C. will be issued within seven working days from the date of request.
  • If anybody desire to get T.C. after reopening day for the new academic year. i.e. Between 1st June and 10th April they should remit the school fees for a whole academic year. Otherwise, they must agree with any condition framed by the school management.

Discipline

In addition to acquiring knowledge, each pupil must develop certain social skills such as self-control and consideration for others.

It is the duty of every student to attend school. Parents must take necessary measures to ensure that their children attend school on time and regularly. Student should follow the courses of study, confirm to the regulation of the school, obey promptly in all the directions of the teachers and principal, be diligent in studies, respectful to teachers, kind and helpful to their peers, clean and neat in habits, person and clothing and refrain from the use of profane and vulgar language.

Students should be present on all school days. In case of absence, upon returning to school must furnish a written explanation for their absence signed by a parent or guardian.

Special Coaching for Weaker Students

We give extra coaching to weak students after school hours, based on their needs. The special classes are arranged for them in various subjects. The subject teachers give personal attention to students to make up their deficiencies.

Study tours

Every year the school organises study tours and field trips to various points of interest. This enables students to connect their classroom learning with the real world.
