School Academics
HPS has a unique academic philosophy. We train students to make a difference in whatever they do and leave their footprints on the sands of time.
The difference between ordinary and extraordinary is that little ‘extra’. Almost all the top schools vie for academic honours and lay great stress on results. While good results have always been a priority what makes HPS special is the fact that students are taught to leave a blazing trail where once there lay a beaten path – to do ordinary things in an extraordinary fashion. That is why probably HPS has down the ages managed to produce many high profile achievers who have done the alma-mater proud. Pupils are taught to soar high and told that while some may succeed because they are destined to most succeed because they are determined to.
Education is akin to an apple tree, though the roots are bitter, the fruit is sweet, but at HPS, even the roots of the tree – ‘the learning process’ is sweet.
