Affiliation, authorisation and better results for your school

I help trusts, founders and principals set up and run CISCE, CBSE, IB and Cambridge schools well: from the first application and inspection to trained teachers and strong board results.

About

Led by Dr. Phani Raju, a school leader who has done the work himself

I have led schools under three boards and trained teachers as principal of a B.Ed college. As Vice-Principal of BGS International Academia I worked with the IB on PYP, MYP and DP candidacy and DP authorisation, and with Cambridge on affiliation. At Baldwin International School I implemented the full Cambridge pathway, and I led a 1,200-student CBSE school as principal.

My examination experience as Deputy Controller of Examinations and in university evaluation brings rigour to how schools assess, analyse and improve results.

Current work

CISCE affiliation support

I am currently supporting two schools with CISCE affiliation: one applying for new affiliation and one moving to permanent affiliation. CISCE looks at how a school actually runs, so preparation starts well before the inspection.

Ask about CISCE affiliation

What I help schools get right

  1. Land, building and safety documents complete and consistent
  2. Qualified staff with proper appointment and salary records
  3. Labs, library and infrastructure matching CISCE norms
