Vikaasa schools offers education in international curricula like Cambridge IGCSE & ICSE.

Their students have received offers from Ivy League universities such as Oxford, Cambridge, London School of Economics, Harvard and the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT), among many other leading universities.
GSF’s extensive network of international teachers will also be available to Vikaasa teachers, who can expand their skills through collaboration and polish their competencies through professional development courses. In addition, GSF University – the skills and development arm of GSF – will also offer courses to staff to help train them in skills and develop their subject-matter expertise.
“We believe that this GSF partnership will further bolster our existing programmes of student exchange, great academic results, and university counselling to nurture students into global leaders,” said Vikaasa’s founder, Mr. Biju Sudhakaran. “l am excited to see the positive impact it will have on our student community.”
