History

The Lakshmipat Singhania Education Foundation was founded in the 1960s to promote education in India. The Kolkata branch of the school opened in 1996 to provide quality education in Kolkata. It is located at the intersection of Alipore Road and Judge's Court Road.

Student Life

The Kolkata Branch has four houses- Vayu (Yellow), Agni (Red), Jal (Blue) and Prithvi (Green). The house names were determined by student votes. The students are divided into these four houses, and a number of intra-school events are organised in which the houses compete against each other.

A student from the Kolkata branch topped West Bengal in the 2007 CBSE Class 12 examination.
