They fare well in GESE

Students of Orchids have been appearing for GESE – Graded Examinations in Spoken English conducted by Trinity College, London, in association with Orient Blackswan, India, for many years. It has become a matter of routine for the students of Orchids to expect GESE in the month of December, to have one-to-one conversation with the native, English-speaking examiner, to experience success and gain confidence.

The examinees take pleasure in progressing through levels appropriate to their individual abilities, appearing for GESE, which definitely help them to improve their communicative skills. Six students appeared for the levels IV- VI and five students appeared for the levels VII and VIII on 2.12.11 in Phoenix Greens School of Learning. The examiner was Mr Guy Command from London.

The school feels proud that all of them have secured good grades.
