Testimonials from
The Sancta Maria Community
Tanishka
My most favourite years of schooling would definitely be my time in Sancta Maria International School. Moving from a different school let alone from a different country was a huge change for any student. I've been grateful to have been a part of the Sancta Maria family. I was holistically acquainted with all aspects of a great schooling
Zack
My time at Sancta Maria was anything but mundane, despite only being there for 2 years. It's an institution that does not just rely on traditional tropes of international schools or Indian schools, but an amalgamation of both! Aside from the academic support and freedom the school provides, it's culture and the connections I made throughout are truly what created value as well as unlocked several aspects about me that I had never expected.
Devraj
It's where I've done most of my growing and metamorphosed into different versions of myself, each one wiser and savvier than the previous one. Sancta Maria didn't only give me a solid education but also taught me important social and life skills that I'll use for many years to come. Many thought processes that led to me becoming the person I am today stemmed from the things I learnt in sancta Maria.
Lalith
I am Lalith Rao, and I’m presently studying Business & Economics at the University of Exeter Business School,UK. I was a former SMIS student and forever a member of the Sancta Maria family. As an IGCSE and A Level student, we had the privilege of selecting our subjects early in 9th grade. This enhanced our development in independent decision making and helped us discover our sense of interests in specific subjects.
Tripura
For me, Sancta Maria was my second home. I attended 6th through 12th grade there, so it feels like I grew up there. I joined Sancta Maria right after moving to India from the US, and everyone welcomed me with open arms. While I had heard of so many kids who had trouble adjusting to life and school in India, I had no trouble at all. Sancta Maria made the transition extremely easy.

I want to thank all of our teachers for inspiring each student to learn and work hard to reach new heights even if it means failing, as Brad Henry said, ” A good teacher can inspire hope, ignite the imagination and instill a love of learning”.
