South Point to Move to Mukundapur Campus in 2027
South Point school plans to move to a new campus in Mukundapur in 2027.
The school has more than 12,000 students.
Moving everyone at once could be difficult, so the school will move classes gradually.
The process is expected to take six months.
It may begin in April or May.
Students, parents and teachers will need time to learn about the new campus.
They will also need to understand new bus, parking and dispersal arrangements.
The new campus will have sports areas, laboratories and auditoriums.
South Point will move to its Mukundapur campus from the academic session beginning in 2027.
The relocation will be phased over six months, beginning with selected classes from both campuses.
The school has more than 12,000 students whose transport and dispersal arrangements must be adjusted.
The 6.67-acre campus includes sports grounds, laboratories, auditoriums and extensive CCTV coverage.
The future of the existing Mandeville Gardens and Ballygunge Place campuses has not been decided.
