About St. James School

Welcome To St.

Welcome To St. James', Kolkata not much is known about our founding fathers, but this much is certain that it began with a vision - a vision for children who, irrespective of language, creed or colour would grow up in an institution devoid of racial prejudices, would be able to express themselves fearlessly and be taught by teachers totally committed to the cause of sound, all-round, value based education. St. James' School was established in 1864. It was inaugurated by the then Most Revd. George Edward Cotton- the Bishop of Calcutta on 25th July 1864. Almost from its inception, reports show that these were years of stress and struggle. In the first twenty years of its existence the school faced intensive financial difficulties and had to be closed in December 1904. According to reports, there was an upsurge of sentiment on the part of parents, well wishers and old boys at the closure of the school. In 1907, with financial assistance from the Church Education League.

As a student of this school I'd say it has many problems,here are a few i) Teachers: the main goal of the teachers here is to finish the syllabus and not the make the lad understand the topic being taught. ii) facilites: even though this school has such a big name, things such as blackboards,old benches,tables from long ago are still being implemented. iii) incompetence: teachers in this school are either good or bad, there's no in between. However,even in the classes in which smart boards were introduced they were barely used as the teachers didn't know how to use them Now moving on the good qualities of this school i) variety in clubs: there are clubs and this the students have the option to choose thebones they are interested in ii) sports: there is also a lot of options for sports,ranging from typical cricket, badminton,swimming basketball and football. Overall i don't personally like this school as it didn't meet upto my expectations, however everyone has a diff experience

My Son, Ritrish Bhaduri walked into this school in the year 2008 and his year if completion of School will be 2023. I still remember the day when the interviews were taken.. transparent and logical. Over the years I have seen my son to excel in Sports, develop positive personality traits and the most important of all to he turned out being a good ‘ human ‘ , caring for others and being supportive to all. Along with the family values, his school has helped him to be so. Being an academician myself, I sincerely feel that St. James’ School is one of the best Schools of Kolkata for the all round development of a child.

The school has the playground with strict attendance and 100% pass percentage with aggregate marks which are above 85% in ICSE exam since ages. The best of the best and Prat Memorial school nearby this school which is not a Co-ed is much more better for Girls. Kudos to St James's school faculty members and the decent Students of all times.

I'm a student in class 11 and from my experience this is was horrible school.... Low quality teachers, nepotism, corruption is imminent. Class room are using bench chairs and black boards from 50 yrs ago. No modern methods of teaching, not even a proper toilet. Rude behaviour by staff and teachers. Heavy donations are demanded and only muslim and Christian students are preferred. Please send your children to a co - ed international school for their more wholesome development rather than this school still stuck in the British era and followed segregation based on gender.

Does the admission to St. James School depends on parent's income. Is it only for the rich people, do the middle class people get a chance to study in this prestigious institute. And what about donation or reference.

Very bad response from security staff. First he needs to learn some proper behaviour. He doesn't know how to talk to guardians. Like he's a doing a favour for school by doing his job. Cheap

Current educational research has found no place in this school. It’s a shame that old school fame is attracting so many folks into this toxic school
