About La Martiniere For Boys

In 1752, a 17 year old Frenchman named Claude Martin came to India as a humble private in the armies of the East India company.

In 1752, a 17 year old Frenchman named Claude Martin came to India as a humble private in the armies of the East India company. But Claude Martin was no ordinary soldier of fortune. He rose rapidly to the rank of Major General and also spent many years in the service of Shuja-ud-daulah, the Nawab of Oudh. By the time of his death in September 1800, he had amassed property worth over half a million pounds sterling.

So far, Claude Martin’s career reads like that of so many other Europeans who found fame and fortune under the powerful patronage of the East India Company. And indeed, if that was all there was to the man, he would have soon been forgotten in the musty pages of history.

However, Claude Martin was a man of vision and he left generous endowments to start schools in Lucknow, Kolkata and in Lyon, in his native land of France. La Martiniere Schools, Kolkata, were the result of his desire to start an educational institution for the ‘’public good of the town of Calcutta,’’

It took 30 years to dispose off the litigation arising out of Claude Martin’s will. Finally, as a result of a Supreme Court decision, La Martiniere Schools opened in Kolkata, on 1st March, 1836.

La Martiniere for Boys offers an all-round education upto the Higher Secondary level. It is affiliated to the Council for the ISC Examinations New Delhi, which conducts the ICSE & ISC Examinations at the close of Classes X & XII.

The school has a very wide spectrum of co-curricular activities which receive as much importance as the academic disciplines. Through this extensive range of activities, the students are exposed to varying situations and issues. They regularly participate in Inter-School Competitions at the local, State, National and occasionally, at the International level. The scholastic, the intra and the extra-mural programmes of La Martiniere are geared to nurturing academic excellence, independent and creative thought, tapping of diverse talents, leadership training and a deep commitment to serving the community.

its a bad school mostly because there anpre bullies and teachers dont even investigate and secondly, the teachers are bad because when a student cant hear question most teachers repeat in irritation and some dont even reply they just give question to someone else, onlly soem teavhers are polite and have some manners a professional teacher should for a whooping price of 12 lakh rupees a year, so not reccomended for elementry school but for middle and high school it is reccomended

Considered as one of the most exclusive and renowned schools in India, La martiniere maintains what it is supposed to maintain. While allegations of teacher misconducts, racism are there, it is mostly from local teachers who are not inclusive in their way of teachings. Nevertheless, it is overshadowed by the diverse students coming from different part of the country and occasionally some foreigners. Canteen, field and all other facilities are good enough. One can also enjoy and like their time spent and their experience by being a martinian . Overall, good school to be considered for your children.

The school has taken a thoughtful initiative by being a Covid-19 Vaccination Centre in collaboration with Belle Vue Clinic. Brought my parents here for their first dose of Covishield vaccination. The overall neatness and helpful coordination deserves a special mention.
