Ecole Globale believes in all-round development and holistic education for its girls. We at Ecole have left no stone unturned when it comes to developing the academic and sporting potential, as well as the overall personality of the students. With thorough training, practice and guidance, the school prepares the girls for the future and fortified enough for their higher education.
How Ecole Globale prepare students for college ?
The girls at Ecole Globale experience life in a much different way than students in other schools do. The elements of their life at Ecole include academic enrichment, sporting prowess, health and wellness, international exposure and abilities to understand different cultures. All these learnings are intertwined with the values that students inculcate through various processes. The support staff, domestic staff, housekeeping and other elements of the campus contribute in their unique ways towards the betterment of the life of our girls at Ecole. This has a value-based impact on the students and they learn the values of gratitude, patience, perseverance, and hard work.
A typical day in the life of an Ecolier starts early with the Morning PT so that students can start their day afresh and with a clear mind and ample physical energy. The girls at Ecole have learned various self-management skills through the curriculum, pedagogy and overall experience they have through the life they witness on campus. Further, our girls grasp life skills like negotiation, adaptability, and empathy through staying the boarding houses with a diverse student community.
Global(e) Connect
In the pursuit of helping our students develop into global citizens, one primary program we conduct regularly is the student exchange. The Ecole Globale is an active part of the Round Square International Service (RSIS) which includes students from some of the world’s most prestigious and renowned institutes. Through this program, not only are our students often sent abroad to participate but also sometimes our students play host to many students who visit from different countries.
Enhancing IQ and EQ
At Ecole Globale, we believe that learning does not just come from within the four walls of a classroom but also, through various literary activities. These activities aim at developing and honing the literary skills that are indispensable when it comes to the all-round development of the students. Apart from the activities held within the school, students also take part in conferences and competitions hosted by other schools of repute which provide exposure to diverse elements that aid in building their overall well-being. The language teachers at Ecole strive hard to build good linguistic skills among the students, in the first, second and third languages.
Some of the activities that our students engage in are:
- Dehradun Youth Summit: The summit features workshops and plenaries led by student leaders and experts who inspire and share their experiences& ideas on how to transform national issues into a force for positive change. This helps the students to enhance their thought processes and view various issues in a new dimension.
- Model United Nations: Every year, our students also take part in the Doon School Model United Nations (DSMUN), one of the most prestigious MUNs held in India. Students engage in debates and discussions regarding current world issues. In addition to the proficiency skills, students develop their out-of-the-box thinking.
- Spell Bee: Aimed at improving the grasp of the English language, the competition involves students learning the spellings and the proper usage in sentences.
- In-house Competitions: Debates, elocution, extempore and many more help not just in boosting the students’ command of the language but also, in improving their rationale and personality as a whole. One of the highlights among many such competitions held recently was the ‘Hindi Saptah’, a week that was dedicated to promoting the use of Hindi.
Sports building confidence, agility, and team spirit
Ecole Globale, the sports school in Dehradun, has always believed that more experiential learning happens in the arena of Sports than anywhere else. As an International School of high repute, we have always maintained top-notch facilities for building, maintaining, sustaining and growing sporting prowess among our girls. All sports disciplines are given equal importance and are played with great enthusiasm under the guidance of specialised coaches. The disciplines offered: Swimming, Shooting, Badminton, Basketball, Athletics, Football, Tennis, Table Tennis, Squash, Martial Arts.
Art as a form of expression
Learning different expressions of arts has always added value to individuals with holistic education, who strive to go the extra mile at grasping new skills. The School provides ample opportunities to let the girls showcase their creativity and stimulate their reasoning abilities. To let the creative juices flow, an equal emphasis has always been given to performing arts, wherein the girls own the stage and the canvas in their stride. The aim has always been to empower the girls to embrace hindrances with new-found wisdom, freedom, agility and strength. Ecole Globale offers a variety of Clubs for Music, Dance, Pottery, Cookery and Poetry.
Instilling empathy and kindness
In recent times, Ecoliers have taken significant initiatives in performing upliftment activities in their vicinity and beyond. They carry out awareness drives on menstrual hygiene, sanitation, women empowerment, and environmental plastic ban; and conduct regular visits to orphanages and underprivileged care centres. The school makes it a point to inculcate empathy and the spirit of social service through these drives as it is more important to take part in certain activities rather than only reading about them. We believe that it is through experiencing the joy of giving, that an individual learns how to do their part for the community.
Imprint of Ecoliers
Ecole Globale is proud of its alumni making their mark in several national and international universities and colleges of repute.

Many more students have also bagged scholarships in reputed universities, due to their academic excellence and overall performance.
Career Guidance & Final Polishing
Bagging a seat at such institutes is never easy without meticulous training and counselling for such a specialized purpose. Today, when the world is becoming highly competitive, we give our students an extra edge by providing them guidance through our in-house Career Counselling Experts, who make the necessary effort to give each student the necessary guidance for admission into universities of their choice. That’s how Ecole Globale prepare students.
A life transformational certificate program at our first-of-a-kind Indian Finishing school, done over 9 years from class 4 to class 12 will help students become ready to face challenges of personal and professional life along with completing the formal education. It is designed around etiquette training, personal enhancement, attitude building, life skills and social awareness. From handling discussions and making decisions in the boardroom to ensuring the smooth running of the household we train our students to take up each responsibility with perfection.
All due documentation, exam preparation tips, profile-building guidance and assistance are sought by students before they apply to universities in their last year of schooling, and the Career Counselling Cell is well-equipped to provide customised solutions to each such aspirant. The different career fairs and visits of campus ambassadors organized at Ecole Globale give a chance to students to interact with admission teams of their prospective universities on a personal level. General awareness about universities is also targeted to be improved through these career fairs so that the girls can make informed decisions and accordingly prepare themselves for their next educational journey.
As a student at Ecole Globale, the residential school experience teaches a lot to the girls that’s how Ecole Globale prepares students. They not only learn how to respect their teachers but also develop a sense of gratitude towards those who support their life at Ecole in some way or the other. Apart from academic and co-curricular excellence, the traits of discipline and self-reliance come naturally to the boarders which ensure their readiness to face innumerable challenges that the 21st century world has to offer.
