Admissions for Upper School, Grade 11 now open
– Rudolf Steiner
This quote by Steiner continues to be our motto and guiding light as we open the gates for young adults to join the 11th grade. We are sure that the carefully chosen subjects, hand-picked teachers and the global Waldorf high school curriculum, will be the triumvirate to deliver world-class education to adolescents – the young explorers navigating their way through the world.
Being the first full-fledged Waldorf school in India, the mission to nurture the spark in budding minds has long been a goal of ours. As we enter our 26th academic year in 2023-24, we’re overjoyed to extend our curriculum exclusively to the Humanities stream for Grade 11.
Our intention behind offering Humanities at Sloka is to engage each student with their ideas of self, culture, and the world itself, actively focusing on communication, creativity, and critical thinking. With Sloka’s child-centric curriculum, parents and teachers are committed to helping the kids grow into well-rounded adults with empathy.

To expand their horizons, students will be taken on trips across the country and internationally, apart from exchange visits. At Sloka, students are encouraged to participate in debates, MUNs, inter-school sports, educational trips and other opportunities for learning. As part of Waldorf Curriculum, students will additionally be offered classes that teach
After a meticulous and painstaking schedule of interviews, we have carefully chosen a group of experienced teachers who have worked in global educational institutes, and are equally well versed with the rigours of CBSE curriculum.
As per CBSE curriculum, a student has to opt for 5 core subjects or academic electives, of which English is compulsory. The other subjects being offered are:
As we prepare them for a future, we also believe the students need to ask themselves the right questions before they choose their path. That’s why we conduct Career Counselling sessions for students in 10th grade. With the introduction of 11th grade starting with the academic year 2023-24, it only makes sense to continue the practice, perhaps in a more intensive way for grade 12.
We will also invite Liberal Arts Universities and other institutions to conduct orientation sessions for undergraduate admissions, including
