The school makes it compulsory for all the kids to play at least one hour of sports of their choice everyday.

Security and maintenance staff are assigned to each floor of the school. CCTV cameras are placed in every hallway, stairwell, sports field and one in every classroom. The school demands for an identity at the security gate before entering the campus to provide high security.[4] Trackers in every ID card help the school monitor students and teachers in the campus and disable them to access unauthorized places.

The transport department coordinates 11 air-conditioned buses travelling to different parts of Bangalore. The buses are GPS enabled and offer a text messaging system available for parents to be alerted of bus arrival estimations via text message. Each bus is assisted with a female caretaker. Regular observations are done in the routes of buses to ensure hassle-free, on-time arrivals and departures.

The lunch is offered to the students by the school which usually includes a four-course meal.[5] The menu varies daily and is available on the school's official website and app specially designed for parents.

The school had introduced nine clubs, together called the Navrathna in the Academic Year 2019-20. The school clubs have the prefix 'philia' which denotes fondness for something.
