The IDEALS in our school
.....
CGSD is an institution that prides itself on being a staunch follower of the Round Square IDEALS-International Understanding, Democracy, Environmental Stewardship, Adventure, Leadership, and
Service- ever since its inception. Students attending Chittagong Grammar School Dhaka make a strong commitment, beyond academic excellence, to personal development and the development of the community. Students from various nationalities come together under one roof and participate in exchanging ideas and cultural perspectives. They learn to be modern citizens, to be adventurous, and to lead their peers through participation in RS and school activities. They also learn to look at the environment as a gift and learn to conserve it.
What being a Round Square school means to us
Being an RS school means to having the opportunity to interact with students, teachers, and schools from all over the world, exchanging ideas and thoughts, and breaking new boundaries. It allows us to share our culture with the rest of the world and show them what Bangladesh is capable of doing. Our students have opportunities to collaborate with schools across the RS global network through virtual
Postcards and Lab sessions. Students and teachers have the chance to take part in age-appropriate local, regional, and global conferences that bring them together with peers from different countries to share perspectives, debate topical issues, forge friendships, support local communities, and develop international understanding. It helps our students create bonds with friends from conferences that
they will cherish for a lifetime. But, most importantly being a Round Square school means being part of a platform to develop ourselves into global, socially responsible citizens.
