At St. Britto High School, the management, staff and students draw inspiration from the school’s moto “Facta non Verba” : “Deeds not Words”. Standing tall with a 100% pass percentage at the S.S.C. examinations for the 3rd year in a row, St. Britto continues to make the teaching – learning experience current and relevant.
It has added a new pre-primary wing with all the latest facilities. This new wing comes with a modern classroom setup fully equipped with the latest audio-visual facilities. For the first time St. Britto now has a Lower Kindergarten.  The teachers recruited have been trained and oriented over the summer. The schedule and curriculum has been meticulously designed keeping the learner and only the learner in mind.
At St. Britto the management has laid special emphasis on the proper development and execution of the assigned curriculum at the primary level. The teachers have been encouraged to use the audio-visual medium to the maximum, taking into consideration the multiple learning abilities of the students. To help the teachers the school also has a library that is by far the best.
The entire school from the pre-primary, primary to the secondary has a projector in the classroom. C.C.T.V. cameras on campus and in the classrooms ensure an added level of security. The school also has manned security at its entrance. The school has facilities like a separate audio-visual room that has been renovated and air-conditioned.
St. Britto aims at the all round development of a student. It has a massive playground that accommodates a football field, a volleyball court, 2 basketball courts and a cricket practice pitch. The school also has coaches to help the students in the individual sports of their choice.
 The students at Britto also have a regular dance class. Students from the 1st std to the 10th have computer classes, with practical experience offered in a well equipped computer room. Scienctific theory rests on observation. To aid the development of the scientific mind the school has a well equipped laboratory which is regularly visited by the students from the 5th to the 10th.
Value Education classes provide the socio-spiritual dimension to complete the all round development of the student. A regular  counselor offers the necessary help and guidance to the youngsters as they prepare to embark on their journey in to the world of stress and competition.
The teaching and non teaching staff is constantly engaged in training to hone their skills, thus making them effective guides and mentors. The school also has a weekly mentoring period that is solely designed for better personal teacher student interaction. Timely remediation continues to help the weaker students find a better footing academically.
 Besides on campus activities the students are also engaged in social outreach programs that get them in touch with the less fortunate. Field trips to places of historical and scientific interest add the much needed boast to intellectual growth. The school has an active quiz club, photography club and consumer club. The various academic departments also  organize various activities of their own, all through the year. The N.C.C. , Scouts and N.S.S. are very active as well. Art and singing have a regular place in the weekly schedule of the school. The General and Class assemblies are always value based, constantly encouraging the students to begin their day on a good note.
All this has yielded results. The school has won many laurels in sports, quizzing, cultural activities etc. With the active support of the parents and teachers St. Britto continues to forge ahead. Seek new areas of development for only when one seeks the Better does one get to the Best.
