STEPPING STONES INTERNATIONAL (IGCSE)

The inception of Stepping Stones began with only 65 children, and now, our vast family has grown to include over 1800 students. With more than 40 years of experience in Education and schooling, students and their overall development have been the central focus of our lives.

In 2017 we started with an IGCSE curriculum. Currently, we are the only IGCSE school in Aurangabad and the only international school in Aurangabad. Technology has become pervasive in our lives, and we have taken care to implement this in our classrooms as well. Our teachers are facilitators of this change, and as a school, we strive to create positive digital imprints for our students. We are renowned for our range of co-curricular activities that offer our students the ideal platform for expressing themselves and attaining their highest potential.

Our school remains way ahead of its contemporaries through its vision and method of teaching. Being the only school in Aurangabad, Stepping Stones International remains the only school to spread its wings not only at the national level but even at the international level. Through our application-based teaching methods, we instil in our students the desire to develop an informed curiosity, to question and explore, and apply their cognitive processes to everything they experience. This is implemented through several unique methods of learning that make every student look forward to a new day at school.

Every child carries within them a world waiting to be explored. At Stepping Stones Schools, we are dedicated to helping them discover it. Since our founding in 2003, we have proudly built on our legacy—starting with Toddlers, the first playschool in the city established in 1983, and continuing with Stepping Stones International since 2017, the first and only institution offering the CAIE and IGCSE curricula. We are committed to the progress of every child across academic, co-curricular, and competitive arenas. Our approach to education is rooted in the belief that wholesome learning shapes a life forever. Our expansive 18-acre campus and diverse programs reflect our commitment to holistic education and the eternal quest for learning. We provide a vibrant array of inter-school, inter-house, and inter-class competitions that empower every child to discover and express their unique interests and talents. We strive to equip our students with vital skills for success in sports, public speaking, debates, and life, shaping them into well-rounded, responsible citizens poised to thrive in the world. We prioritise innovative learning through digitisation and AI while fostering the social and emotional quotients essential for success today. While parents are the primary educators, our partnership begins when your child starts school. As Principal, I invite you to join the Stepping Stones family, where we nurture your child’s growth together. We are dedicated to making their journey enriching and fulfilling, turning our shared dreams into reality. Welcome to Stepping Stones Schools!

MANAGEMENT

Stepping Stones Education has been the pride and privilege of the family that has been in education for the past 40 years. It is a journey that started in 1983 with Toddlers Nursery that still dedicates itself to providing the best environment for children. The journey has not been without its challenges, we had to navigate through obstacles of many sorts to provide the space conducive to learning and development of students in Aurangabad. Despite the obstacles, milestones have been achieved when we incorporated CBSE in 2003. After 14 years, we were proud to take Stepping Stones a step forward by including IGCSE as a curriculum. But it is our unwavering commitment towards pupils and belief in them that made the journey a wonderful one. This commitment remains unchanged.
