Far from home: Indian boarding school prepares for life (Learning World: S5E04, 2/3)

13-year-old Karen Madan is attending a boys' boarding school in Shimla, India, and tells us about his daily routine at school. He is convinced that the school will prepare him well for the challenges of the future, not just academically. As the headmaster, Roy C. Robinson puts it: "You are going to bump into other students, that you might not like, but you got to get along with. In a small way, that really prepares you for the larger society that you are going to interact with once you leave school."
