From the Principal's desk
We teach children first, and subjects second
Marks matter, and ours are good. But a child who is afraid of being wrong stops asking questions, and a child who stops asking questions stops learning. So our first job is a classroom where it is safe to be wrong.
That takes small sections, teachers who stay for years, and parents who are told the truth at every meeting. We have worked at all three since 1994.

Parents
What parents tell us
“Both my children studied here from nursery. What I remember is that every teacher, every year, knew exactly where each of them was struggling.”
Dr Seema Banchhor Parent of two alumni “My son is not a topper and was never made to feel small for it. He found robotics in class VII and the school gave him the room and the time.”
Manoj Sinha Parent, class IX “The parent-teacher meetings are honest. You are told what is going well and what is not, with no sugar on it.”
Farah Ali Parent, class IV
