Students who graduate from this institute not only gain technical knowledge but also obtain knowledge in various areas such common skills, communication skills and leadership skills as well as highly motivated. These attributes are acquired through school extra-curricula activities. At SCMT, students are encouraged to participate in school activities in order to refine a particular talent or interest that they have and to become a well rounded individual. We have a few clubs and sporting teams available to students. If a group of students shows an interest in an activity, we will try to form a club to accommodate them.
