Educating And Empowering since 1968
It is widely accepted that learning process is instrumental in shaping the personality of a child and the way he/she deals with situations of life. So, we facilitate the cultivation of a healthy thought process in children while grooming their cognitive abilities.
The values and life skills are incorporated in all our teaching-learning activities. In our school, children are exposed to various sources from whom they can imbibe immense knowledge, instrumental for their development.
We encourage participation in debates, seminars, discussions, dramatics, public speaking and other activities that enhance communication skill and helps with an overall intellectual, psychological and social growth of a child.
We focus on developing sociable practices such as empathy, friendship and respect, all of which turn out to be important in their adulthood.
We also ensure the constant presence of activities such as sports, art & craft that help children direct their boundless energy into something productive. We play an important role in facilitating all round development of all our students. Now a days, as many children are interested in online Classes, we have created a new facility for teachers to be able to stream lessons through Google Class room and be able to answer questions via live chat. Teachers can broadcast voice and video of themselves or just share a screen to explain a certain topic.

In Senior Secondary Classes we offer many Subjects other than the normal subjects, which kindle the interest of students like Entrepreneurship, Informatics Practices, Legal Studies, Home Science, Fashion Designing, Psychology and Physical Education.
We offer a Special Online Program as MADS School once a week, which focuses on teaching Music, Art, Dance and Sports as per the choice of selection of a child.
Music positively impacts a child’s academic performance, assists in developing social skills, and provides an outlet for creativity that is crucial to a child’s development.
Instead of being fed facts, through Art education, students can explore their interests and indulge in what excites them the most. It fosters collaboration and improves emotional balance helping kids become team players.
Learning, thought, creativity, and intelligence don’t just come from the brain alone, but from the entire body. Movement combinations increase memory, order, and sequencing skills. So, Our School focuses on teaching dance through such special online programs on Saturdays.
Grievance redressal mechanism of our School is very effective and we strive to keep our kids happy and safe at all times. Parents can mail their grievances of any kind like discontent or dissatisfaction to a given mail id and get the same fixed within a week’s time.
Online Learning
The COVID-19 has resulted in schools shut all across the world. Our School, therefore, was forced to reorient the processes and policies pertinent to teaching and learning practices.
We navigated various online teaching-learning processes and quickly onboarded to a good Learning Management System, oriented our teachers and students to get accustomed to it, upgraded our technical gadgets and upscaled our technical inventories. The shift of attitude in us, in our parents, teachers and students helped us achieve our goal of effective online Classes easily.
