Academic Programs

Early Years to Secondary

The school follows Nepal’s national curriculum and gradually builds skills, starting with playful learning in Nursery and progressing to subject-focused studies in Grade 10.

  • Nursery to Grade 5: Students learn language, numbers, science, and social skills through fun activities and hands-on lessons.

  • Grades 6 to 8: Subjects become more structured. Students explore science, math, English, Nepali, and computing with more depth.

  • Grades 9 to 10: These years prepare students for the Secondary Education Examination (SEE), with an added focus on electives such as computer science and accountancy.

Cambridge A-Level

Butwal Public School (BPS) also offers the GCA A-Level program, administered by Cambridge Assessment. Students choose subjects such as physics, chemistry, biology, mathematics, economics, and computer science. It’s project-based and encourages students to think critically and apply their knowledge.

Admissions Process

The admissions process is simple and student-friendly:

  1. Collect the Form: You can get the admission form from the office or the school website.

  2. Visit the School: Families are welcome to visit and explore the classrooms, labs, and hostels.

  3. Entrance Test: Students sit for a basic test in math and English or subject-specific exams (for higher grades).

  4. Meet the Team: Parents and students meet with teachers to talk about goals and school expectations.

  5. Decision: Admission results are typically shared within approximately five days.

  6. Enrollment: Once accepted, families complete the necessary paperwork and prepare for orientation.

Don’t forget to bring the latest report card, birth certificate, and two passport-sized photos.

School Life

A school day starts with a morning assembly. In summer, students stay indoors and listen through the school’s audio system. Lessons, group projects, club meetings, and sports make up a full and active day.

There are rules in place to make sure the school remains safe and respectful. These cover attendance, behavior, dress code, and the proper use of technology.

Teachers and Teaching Style

The teachers at BPS come from different academic backgrounds and have years of classroom experience. What makes the teaching style different is the extent to which teachers involve students. Lessons often include group discussions, projects, and experiments.

Teachers receive regular training, sometimes with experts from across Nepal and even other countries. Feedback is a big part of learning, and students get help whenever needed.

Classrooms and Facilities

Classrooms

The classrooms are big, bright, and well-ventilated. There are separate rooms set up with listening tools for language learning.

Labs

  • Computer Labs: There are three labs equipped with a range of software, from basic programs for young learners to advanced tools like Visual Basic and data analysis tools for senior students.

  • Science Labs: The general science lab is used from Grade 6 onward. The new chemistry lab, designed for A-Level classes, features all the necessary equipment and materials for hands-on experiments.

Library

Thousands of storybooks, course books, and newspapers fill the library shelves. Students are encouraged to read weekly, and many borrow books to take home.

Sports

The school has two large playgrounds and an indoor hall. Students enjoy a variety of sports, including football, cricket, running, and table tennis, among others.

Boarding

  • Semi-boarding: For students who stay at school for extended hours, supervised by teachers to complete homework and get extra help.

  • Full boarding: For students living far from Butwal. Trained wardens and academic staff provide full care, meals, and guidance.

Transportation

School buses travel to and from areas like Butwal, Sunwal, Bhairahawa, and Kapilvastu. Each bus is staffed with a safety officer.

Students take part in:

  • Art and craft exhibitions

  • Music and drama shows

  • Inter-school quizzes

  • Public speaking and debate
