The School offers programmes in Theatre, World Music, Vocal and Guitar as a part of the After-School programmes. Some of the programmes lead to a qualification from Trinity College.

A variety of games and sports is offered for different age groups as a part of the School Physical Education Programme.

At the ECR campus, students have access to the football fields, cricket nets, volleyball and throw ball courts. 

As an IB school, we integrate Performing Arts (Music, Theatre); Visual Arts and Physical Education, along with academic subjects to help develop a holistic curriculum. These are built into the School time table from ELC 1 to Grade 8. From Grades 9 onwards, subjects such as Art & Design are offered as courses for study towards the Grade 10 / Grade 12 qualification.

• We believe that a School uniform projects that who we are and unifies us. We also believe that it must be simple, free from gender bias, comfortable, and appealing across all age groups. Hence, we worked along with our Senior Students, Designers and Merchandisers of a leading fashion brand, on the colour, material, texture and cut; to custom make it, in their special factory.
• The uniforms are in two colours – green-grey (Regular Uniforms) and orange-grey (P.E uniforms). Students wear their regular or PE uniform on specific days mentioned. 
• Students of ELC (Early Learning Centre) wear the School uniform 4 times a week.  On the other day, they are encouraged to come in comfortable wear. 
• Students are required to wear the uniform, while representing the School in any forum outside of school; unless it is a formal occasion, where a specific dress code has been prescribed.

Students ELC upto Grade 1 are exposed to different languages through music and other activities. As a formal course of study, we offer a choice between Spanish, Hindi and Tamil from Grade 2 onwards.

We believe in small class size. We restrict the number of  students in a class to be between 20-22, to ensure that the teacher is able to give personalized attention to each student, and also encourage collaborative learning  amongst the students. 

Our staff come from diverse backgrounds – ethnicity, nationality, qualifications, having lived and worked in various parts of the world. Many of our teachers are of Indian origin, while we have some teachers of foreign ethnicity. What we look for in all our teachers is International -mindedness, a growth mindset and a professional approach to teaching.

• Classrooms and Learning Spaces are equipped with hardware such as desktops, projectors, laptops, tablets and headphones, for teacher and student use. Students are taught to use various apps on the devices and use the hardware for a variety of learning activities such as research, presentation, collaboration and communication. 
• From Grade 9 onwards, the School has a BYOD policy. 
• All students are registered through the firewall to help curtail unnecessary usage of the internet; and devices are used by all students under adult supervision at all times.
• Students are also coached in responsible Digital Citizenship.

• The foremost priority on campus is to provide a safe and nurturing environment. Students are supervised at all times. Teachers and other staff ensure safety in classrooms, science labs, on the fields, on field trips, and during school events.
• Buildings are secure and; electrical, fire safety and sanitary standards are complied with. Each of the campuses is registered with a nearby medical centre or hospital and the nearby Police Station, who are intimidated, in case of an emergency.
• For internet security, the high school campus is protected with a firewall.

At our ECR campus, we will be shortly introducing a Food Plan.

• Transport service is an optional service facilitated and outsourced by the School for the convenience of its students.
• At our City campus we work with an outsourced vendor who provides the service.
• At our ECR campus we have our own transport (Yellow School Vans) that provide the service. 
• Safety measures are complied with.
• The School has taken utmost care for the safety and convenience of the students.

• AAIS has a rolling Admission Policy. Students can join anytime during the year, provided there is a vacancy in the grade applied to.
