Since we handle a generation which is born into technology and are touted as digital citizens, it is important that we mediate their learning experiences through responsible use of technology. Smart Class Room is attained when the students are able to access the modern technology in the classroom itself. In such concept Benchmark possesses the smart classroom where the world is getting projected in the class walls with its high definition sound system. The smart room of ours is indeed smart with huge touch screen interactive white board. The room has new generation devices to fully exploit the leaps in ICT and to render it handy in the teaching learning processes at the campus.

Art is the key in shaping up the persona of our children. Researchers have increasingly revealed the need of art in learning programmes. BenchMark develops a full-fledged art station for the children. The station will give ample freedom for the children to involve themselves in colour and lines and dreams under the careful supervision of the art teacher.

Separate hostel facilities are available for boys inside the school campus and girls outside the school campus. The students are given individual attention to groom their personality. The hostel is equipped with amenities like internet connection, television, newspaper, periodicals, magazines etc. to inculcate interest in developing all round awareness. The hostels also offer game facilities- indoor as well as outdoor.
