Hebron School is an independent, international Christian residential school. Recognizing the value of each individual in the community and believing that the best foundation for life is a personal relationship with Christ, its aims centers around providing excellent education and instilling good values and character to each and every student.
Hebron School is in the town of Ootacamund or Udagamandalam (Ooty), which is known as 'The Queen of the Hill Stations' in the Nilgiri Hills, situated at 2,200m (7,500ft), above sea level.
The school has an average enrollment of over 350 (both resident and day studnets). Entry is usually from Std 3, age eight (Staff children enter at age five) in Junior School, and most students progress through the school to the Higher Secondary stage when they sit for 'A' and 'AS' levels GCE (Cambridge) at age eighteen. The school has an all-ability intake (there is no entrance examination) although some testing is undertaken if there is doubt as to a student's capacity to cope, but the children are generally in the top fifty per cent of the ability range. The courses are mainly academic. The student body represents 22 countries and a variety of cultural and religious backgrounds.
Staff members are recruited from UK, India and other Commonwealth or western countries. They enter India with a sense of God's calling and a life commitment to Jesus Christ as Saviour and Lord which are essential for this work.
The chief work of the school is naturally the care, at every level, of children in a boarding school situation. The children are cared for in dormitory groups according to age. Younger children may be under the care of a single house mother, but older children are usually cared for by a married couple acting as house-parents. There is a school nurse and caterers are in charge of domestic staff and food. The academic side of the school is arranged so that the primary classes each have a teacher and senior classes have subject teachers.
