Committee level
Why a dedicated girls' section from Class VI
The committee's Nursery–V wings are co-educational by design — early childhood education benefits from mixed peer groups, and the academic load at that age does not yet differentiate strongly. From Class VI onward, AJDG transitions to a girls-only environment for several practical reasons:
Adolescence-aware classroom design
Class VI roughly aligns with the start of pre-adolescence. A dedicated girls' section allows classroom dynamics, sports periods, and counselling support to be designed around that life stage without the additional layer of mixed-gender social adjustment.
Stream confidence at Class XI
Senior secondary stream selection (Science, Commerce, Arts) often gets influenced by peer signalling. A girls-only senior section lets students choose Science or Commerce — historically less defaulted to by girls in Indian school settings — without the implicit social cost of "going against the room".
Family preference
Many Jodhpur families specifically seek a girls-only environment for the secondary years for cultural, religious, or simple-comfort reasons. AJDG exists to offer that option without compromising on academic depth — the same RBSE board, the same NCERT curriculum, the same Class XII stream choices as a co-ed school.
Continuous schooling under one committee
A girl admitted at Nursery can graduate from Class XII without ever changing managing-committee, principal-office, or campus boundary. The shared admissions team carries her file across the Nursery→V→VI–XII transition without re-onboarding overhead.
These are practical reasons, not philosophical claims. Co-educational schooling has its own genuine benefits and the committee runs co-ed schools too (BDRKA, PKA, KPPP). AJDG exists for families that prefer the girls-only model from Class VI; the choice belongs to the family.
The full path from Nursery to Class XII for girls at HSMC
The committee runs a continuous schooling pipeline. A girl can start at the AJDG co-ed Nursery–V Hindi-medium wing (or at KPPP for English medium) and graduate from the AJDG Class XII section. Same committee, same locality, no inter-school transfer paperwork.
Nursery to Class V
Choose between two co-educational primary wings:
- AJDG Nursery–V (Hindi medium) — co-ed, no admission fee, on the AJDG/HSS Pal Road campus.
- KPPP (English medium) — co-ed, no admission fee for any class, on the Campus 2 building shared with PKA + BDRKA.
Class VI to Class X
Girls move to AJDG's dedicated girls' section. Both English and Hindi mediums are available — the family chooses at admission. Subjects follow the full RBSE + NCERT framework (English, Hindi, Mathematics, Science, Social Studies, Sanskrit / additional language, Computer Education).
Class X concludes with the RBSE Board examination — a Secondary School Certificate that opens the Class XI stream choice.
Class XI–XII (stream choice)
Three streams. Subject combinations are detailed in the next section. Class XII concludes with the RBSE Senior Secondary Certificate — accepted by all Indian universities and by competitive exams (NEET, JEE, CUET, CLAT, etc.).

All three streams are taught with their full RBSE-prescribed subject lists. Stream confirmation happens after Class X results so the choice can be informed by actual board performance. Counselling is available from the school's senior teachers and the Class X coordinator.

Facilities and committee-wide infrastructure
AJDG students access two layers of facilities: the school's own infrastructure on Campus 1, and the committee-wide shared resources that span all five HSMC schools. The latter is the operational lever that distinguishes a multi-school managing committee from a standalone school.
Apple AI Lab (Class IX onwards)
The committee operates a shared Apple AI Lab covering three modules: Artificial Intelligence basics, Digital Marketing, and Web Development. Class IX–XII students from AJDG, HSS, and BDRKA join scheduled lab sessions through the year. The lab runs on Apple hardware and is staffed separately from the standard NCERT computer-education subject taught at each school.
Science laboratories
Physics, Chemistry, and Biology labs support the Class XI–XII Science stream practical curriculum. Equipment is calibrated to the RBSE practical syllabus, and lab-period scheduling sits alongside theory classes through the school week.
Library + reading room
Stocked with NCERT-aligned reference texts plus general reading material in English and Hindi. Reading periods are part of the timetable for the lower classes; senior students have open-access during free periods.
Scout-Guide and Rovers-Rangers
The girls-wing equivalents (Guide and Ranger) run as the structured leadership and community-service track. Activities include camps, inter-school rallies, first-aid training, civic engagement, and badge-based progression that culminates in senior-level certifications.
How admission works at AJDG
The committee's admissions model is parent-first and officer-first. There is no online form — every admission is handled by a named officer over phone or in person, so the family gets concrete answers about fees, documents, and the daily school context before committing.

The academic rhythm at AJDG
The school week follows a six-day pattern with Sunday off. The exact bell schedule varies between Nursery–V (morning shift) and the main school (Class VI–XII), and shifts seasonally between summer and winter to match Jodhpur's climate. Below is the typical structure parents can expect — confirm exact times with the admissions office at the time of joining.
Morning assembly
All students gather for assembly — prayer, news of the day, birthday recognition, achievement announcements, and a short reflection or thought of the day. Class teachers handle attendance afterward.
Period structure
Eight teaching periods of ~40 minutes each, with one short break (15 min) and one lunch break (30 min). Subject scheduling is set per class section at the start of the academic year.
Co-curricular slot
Saturdays focus on co-curricular activities: Guide / Ranger sessions, art and music, inter-house competitions, and project-based learning. Periodic school-wide events (Republic Day, Independence Day, Annual Day) are held through the year.
Lab + library periods
Senior science students get scheduled lab periods alongside theory classes; the library is open during free periods for self-study. The Apple AI Lab follows a separate weekly slot for Class IX onwards.
