The Subjects

It puts to test a student’s understanding of mathematics, the approach they take to tackle a problem, their clarity of thought and most importantly a student’s response to the ever rising difficulty and the determination to solve the problems at hand.

Through our camps we aim to imbibe in our students the curious spirit of an explorer who learns to integrate the discipline of Maths with the entire spectrum of learning.

Science Olympiad aims to turn Science to a practical and innovative concept which can be explorative and adaptive rather than structured.

The Science Olympiad conducted by ISFO aims to recognize the raw scientific fervour and talent within students at formative age. Working in tandem with ICSE and CBSE boards, Science Olympiad aims to test the students not only on their theoretical knowledge of the subject but the creative applications of its concepts as well.

English is not merely a subject but a language. Through this Olympiad, ISFO aims to enrich and deepen a child’s appreciation for the English language and its foundation, Verbal Reasoning and Reading Comprehension. The content of the tests is designed to focus on communication and use of English language, and not restricted to rote learning and grammatical accuracy, only.

Top 3 National Level Rankers (Level 2, each subject) win an all expense paid trip to Singapore.

General knowledge is the knowledge of broad range of facts about varied subjects in the context of your country and the world around you. This culturally valued, real time information equips students with cognitive skills that focus on attaining and processing public and common knowledge related to current events.
