NCC at Scholars’ International School – Building Character and Cultivating Leadership
At Scholars’ International School, NCC (National Cadet Corps ) plays a vital role in shaping students into disciplined, confident, and responsible citizens. Under the dedicated guidance of ANO (Associate NCC Officer) Mr. Yoginder Singh, the NCC unit has grown into a vibrant and resp
ected pillar of student development. His leadership and military-inspired mentorship create a structured, inspiring environment where cadets are trained not only in drills and discipline but in values that last a lifetime.
The NCC program offers students a unique platform to develop leadership qualities, teamwork, courage, and a deep sense of patriotism. Through regular drills, camps, adventure activities, and community service, cadets gain hands-on experience in handling real-life situations, enhancing their problem-solving skills and mental resilience.
The advantages of being an NCC cadet are substantial. Besides personal growth and character development, cadets benefit from special reservations and preferences in defense services, government jobs, and higher education institutions. They also become eligible for national-level scholarships, participate in Republic Day parades, and may even get opportunities for youth exchange programs abroad.
At Scholars’ International School, we believe that NCC is more than a co-curricular activity—it is a transformative journey that empowers students to rise as leaders of tomorrow. With Mr. Yoginder Singh at the helm, the NCC at Scholars is not just preparing cadets for a bright future, but also inspiring them to contribute meaningfully to the nation and society with courage, discipline, and honor.
