Campus
St. Mary's is one of the most prestigious schools of Calcutta having one of the biggest campuses in the city comprising two football fields, an auditorium, a basketball court, a skating rink, parks, badminton court and of course class rooms. The school also has a library, computer centers, laboratories and a chapel hosting mass and other holy events.
As the school was also a residential school for orphans and the underprivileged till 2006, it also has dormitories, a dining hall and a kitchen, along with servants quarters and the three main school buildings. However, the boarding closed down in 2006 and the school is now run as a day school only.
Education
St. Mary's provides education under the ICSE/ISC board, New Delhi. It is run by the Congregation of Christian Brothers of Ireland. Nursery section and +2 level i.e. Class XI and XII, have been introduced. From the 2012 session admission of girls to the +2 level has also started, breaking the school's long-standing reputation of being a premier Boys' only school in Calcutta.
However, in a kind of way the school had become co-ed much earlier, as the open school under the NIOS which is personally supervised by the Brothers had been co-ed since inception. The open school drives literacy among the poor and underprivileged. St. Mary's provides +2 education under NIOS. Secondary education under NIOS is provided by its sister school St. George's in Bowbazar
