India’s best boys day schools 2014-15

The all-boys day schools 2014 league table features a substantial change in the seating arrangements at Top 10 table. But the Campion School, Mumbai seems to be consolidating its position as India’s #1 Boys’ Day School. In the 2014 league table of all Boys’ Day Schools which features a radical change in seating arrangements at the Top 10 table, Campion School, Mumbai (estb. 1943) seems to be consolidating its ranking as India’s #1 Boys’ Day School with an aggregate score of 1,253, substantially higher than of the second-ranked St. Xavie’s Collegiate School, Kolkata (1,223) which has been promoted from #5 last year. Within the Top 5, St. John’s School, Chandigarh has slipped to #3 (2) followed by La Martiniere for Boys, Kolkata (4) and DAV Boys Senior Secondary School, Gopalpur, Chennai (5). Bishop Cotton Boys, Bangalore shares the all-India #6 rank with the previously unranked Don Bosco School, Park Circus, Kolkata which has made an impressive debut in the all-boys day schools Top 10 table this year. Two Mumbai schools ” Don Bosco High School, Matunga at #7 (#8 in 2013) and St. Mary™s High School, Mazgaon at #8 (11) ” and two previously unranked schools, viz, Calcutta Boys School (9) and The Bishop™s School, Pune (10) have also made respectable debuts to complete the Top 10 all-India boys day schools 2014 league table. œI™m very pleased to learn that Campion has retained its rank as India™s and Maharashtra™s #1 boys day school for the second year in succession. I believe it™s a vindication of our institutional focus on the holistic and all-round development ” intellectual, spiritual, social and personal ” of our students who are being nurtured to assume leadership positions in society. All stakeholders ” management, teachers, parents and students ” have worked with passion and commitment to help the school achieve this objective, says Paul Machado, a political science and education alum of Bangalore University who acquired valuable experience at St. Mary™s, Mt.

Fr. Joseph Pathickal, principal of the CISCE-affiliated Don Bosco School, Park Circus, Kolkata, which has vaulted into the Top 10 table, is perhaps even more delighted with this previously unranked school™s #6 all-India and #2 West Bengal ranking. œWe are pleased and honoured with the recognition Don Bosco has received this year.
