DIS believes in teamwork with parents and in order to make this effective, results of exams are distributed to the guardians through individual progress report cards. The exam sheets are also shown to guardians after each type of exam.
From Play Group to STD-III, term tests cover 75% of the total marks. The Tutorial exam covers the remaining 25% marks. For other classes, term tests cover 100% marks. Passing score is 50 percent of the total marks.
Although much of the curriculum is covered in classes, students are expected to reinforce and supplement this and develop their study skills through completing assignments, revising and studying at home. Parents are required to provide every support and to encourage their children to take responsibility for finishing any home-task.
We have two versions(Bengali and English) in Chandpur Campus. In both versions, we follow the curriculum of the NCTB. Our students participate in all the board exams (PEC, JSC and SSC). We are very proud to mention that we have 100% pass with a good number of scholarships in every board exam from our beginning to till the date.
Co curricular activities are as important as academics in molding the all round personality of the students. DIS offers plenty of opportunities in this area through Cultural Club , Language Club, Debate Club, Sports and Games Club and Religious Study Club.
DIS Digital Library is the face of our fame and recognition as IT backed School. While opening new departments or programs in our school, the relevant books, information and resources are being collected and stored by hard and soft copies in this library. Our students use the materials in library hours and before or after the end of their class hours under the supervision of the course teacher.
