In details...

Regular and maximum number of classes round the year

At Notre Dame holding regular classes is the main focus. A prescribed schedule is maintained in the light of the Govt. holiday list with a view to conducting maximum number of classes round the year.

Healthy environment conducive to studying

The college provides maximum facilities for a tranquil educational environment in the campus. Politics of any type is strictly prohibited on campus. Smoking and the taking of any sort of drugs are also strictly prohibited here.

Proper guideline for education and sincerity of actions

Each and every student is guided and advised about everything that he is supposed to do. Also, the Director of Guidance, the Student Counselor, the Principal or Vice-Principal may call in the students or their guardians to discuss problems that may have arisen.

Occasional counseling for personal problems

The students or their guardians are given opportunities to consult with the Student Counselor or the Director of Guidance any time they wish, either in person or over the telephone.

Regular Quizzes and Practical Classes 

Much importance is given to the weekly quiz exams and the lab practicals conducted twice a week on a regular basis round the year.

Teacher-Student Relationship 

A friendly relationship exists among the teachers and the students both on and off campus. Students are allowed to meet their teachers any time they wish and discuss any matter with them. 

Computer guided exams and results

All questions at Notre Dame are done on computers. Cyclostyled copies are given to the students in the examination room. Students can write some answers on the question paper itself and submit it with their name and roll number written at the top. If a script does not have the name or roll number, and the owner is found, 20% marks are deducted.  

Meetings with Guardians 

The three terminal exams are each followed by a guardian’s meeting. At that time the progress reports are given to the guardians so that they can discuss their son’s progress with the college authority. 

Library with an Audio-Visual system 

Our library is one of the oldest college libraries in Dhaka. It has some valuable sets of books on various subjects. The library is enriched with a computer aided directory and Encyclopedias. Audiovisual equipment is available for learning and developing English Language skills.  
The library remains open from 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. with a lunch break from 1:00 to 2:00 p.m. 

An effective administration 

The Notre Dame administrative network and accountability system are very effective in achieving the ends for which the College was founded. 

Well organized co-curricular programs 

The co-curricular activities at Notre Dame make up an important part of the students’ formation. Eighteen clubs, covering a multitude of activities, provide students with opportunities for developing their talents.  

Work program: 

A good number of poor students who cannot pay the College fees are given a chance to join the ‘Student Work Program’. The work they do may consist in keeping the campus and classrooms tidy, or assisting in some of the clerical work. A few students teach classes in the Notre Dame Night School.
