At NIIST Public School, we believe in nurturing the holistic development of our students β intellectually, emotionally, and cognitively. As part of our commitment to academic innovation, we proudly offer the Abacus Learning Program to boost studentsβ mental math abilities and sharpen their cognitive skills from a young age.
