Why Shikshayatan
-
To disseminate the best education possible using the most innovative and modern techniques available, to the poorest as well as the education-conscious section. Having a wide exposure to various teaching techniques and several philosophies on education since thepast 35 years helped create methods using elaborate audio visual elements and the philosophy of Mother (of Sri Aurobindo Ashram - Pondichery)
To educate people about right education practices (People are increasingly becoming more aware about early childhood education and the school would aim to transport every need of the parents in terms of quality education.)
To innovate the best techniques that can be replicated in similar projects.
To propagate the methods we use into other daring units, providing a viable base for an alternate education
To setup a model school which would embody these philosophies and practices and to set an example for innovation in education
