The White School International (TWSI) is a K-12 day-cum-boarding school located in Calicut. It was founded by Mr. P. Sulaiman, the Chairman of HiLITE Group, with the goal of becoming one of the world’s leading schools. TWSI offers students the choice of three syllabi: International Baccalaureate (IB), Edexcel, and CBSE; being the only school in Kerala to do so. As Kerala’s first IB Continuum School, TWSI provides IB education from Nursery to Diploma level.
At TWSI, we understand that each student is unique and therefore, a one-size-fits-all approach may not be effective. Each syllabus is designed to empower students through practical, activity-based learning that is tailored to each individual student. Our dedicated faculty is committed to inspiring curiosity and developing skills, values, and achievements in each student. By graduation, our students will be confident and ready to tackle any challenge that comes their way.
We believe that learning should not be limited to textbooks and classrooms. At TWSI, students have the opportunity to engage with the world and experience hands-on learning in the real world, providing a well-rounded education.
The TWSI community of mentors, students and parents alike are committed to holistic and progressive education that is student centric. Our students’ inquiries and learning needs, their socio-emotional well-being and their holistic growth by way of the ‘head, heart and hands’ underpins all of our offerings. This is supported by a strong culture of collaboration across the school.
At the heart of the school is a deep appreciation for open-mindedness and diversity of thought, belief and expression that is rooted in global thinking and international mindedness. The school welcomes students from diverse walks of life, in terms of language portraits, nationality, culture, religion and beliefs, learning support needs, and so on. The same diversity is reflected in our students’ higher education pathways after graduating from the school- while many choose to stay on to pursue their higher education in India, a significant number of our students also go on to secure university placements in the US, UK, Europe, Canada, Australia, Singapore, the Middle East and beyond.
At TWSI, the world is truly our classroom. In the international curriculum, for example, our students enjoy the liberty of not being constrained by textbooks, and enjoy challenging and hands-on learning across real-world situations and ‘glocal’ contexts. More importantly, all learning leads to taking meaningful action in the real world to making a lasting impact. TWSI is therefore a learning pathway for the change-makers and innovators of the future.
