The major driving force behind my taking up this school project has been the mixed experience of a variety of parents with regard to the day schools in India. I strongly feel that there is a need for customization in the public school system, reorienting it to Indian culture and traditions.
Keeping this in view we have experimented in a small way and introduced a few changes, which have already started bearing fruit. At the Doon Presidency School we help children to explore into their hidden potential by exposing them to diverse opportunities and a large number of activities. The CICSE board based, liberal education also helps them to rise above sectarian mindsets and obtain a truly international outlook.
In addition to this, children are trained to learn more by doing things themselves and trying out new ideas, treating failure and success equally, with all their energies focussed on sincere and purposeful effort.
