Scholarship : There is a provision of giving scholarship to the poor and meritorious students. The authority considers this matter very keenly. In addition every year a good number of students used to get primary and junior scholarship in talent & general pool.

Further Information: Some matters have made the college different than other colleges in this area. For example, the dossier system can keep all personal information such as result, quiz test progress, discipline etc of every student. For twenty or twenty-five students a guide teacher is selected. The respective teacher is responsible for progress of these students. Another example is overall that the arrangement of quiz test on two days of a week keeps the students active. After the completion of a series of tests parents’ meeting is held when teachers, guardians and the Principal sit together and talk about the progress, problems and possible solutions. Academic calendar and lesson plan are followed while taking classes. To encourage the students there is a provision of awarding the bright students in the assembly. Thus this institution has been different than the rest.
