Technology plays a major role in twenty-first century education. The new model of integrating technology into the curriculum means that computers are on demand throughout the school day. To combat the challenges of modern learning and to keep pace with global scenarios. Students are provided with a well-equipped computer lab with latest computers to support teaching of ICT, Multimedia, Web technology and Mass media studies at the school level. The school follows the CBSE syllabus for Information Technology to keep our children ahead in this IT-enabled world.

Library has been refurbished and re-stocked in recent years and the school is committed to ongoing investment in print books and digital technology such as Kindles and other e-book sources and resources. There is ample space for research and reading and plenty of access to IT facilities. The library has been designed to provide the students with a quiet and purposeful atmosphere for study and intellectually creative thought. Students are able to use the library throughout the term and regular book fairs are organized. There are also departmental libraries to support the work and resources of the Library. The Library aims to support the educational aims of the school by making the library central and integral to the independent learning processes within the school. It enriches students’ curricular experiences by providing appropriate resources. Knowledge of the curriculum enables teaching staff to get relevant resources, and provide an environment that is conducive and will encourage divergent and reflective study.

In this era of unprecedented knowledge explosion, our school has been quick to capitalize on technological resources. The SMART CLASS provides our students with an education experience par excellence. The DIGITAL BOARDS are a reflection of the plethora of activities that the school is abuzz with. These technological tools aid efficient management of work processes and the institution as a whole.

The Medical room is fully equipped with multiple beds, a full time nurse and other medical support. The students are encouraged to drop in to the Wellness Centre to seek assistance as and when they need it. There is also a frequent dental check-up, a visiting physiotherapist and a nutritionist for the students’ overall well-being. Counselling service for the students is also provided by the school counsellors who teach the life skills curriculum. They also offer students one-on- one counselling as and when it is needed. Comprehensive support is also offered to parents and staff in groups and in one- to- one sessions, as and when desired. A 24x7 ambulance is always on standby for any medical emergency that may arise.

GDGPS is synonymous with the term holistic development. We emphasize on the balanced all-around development of our children. Sports occupy a pride of place in our school curriculum. A large turf ground is one of the highlights of the excellent sporting facilities at the school. Apart from the regular activities pertaining to Physical Training that are incorporated into the timetable, proficiency in diverse games is also encouraged. We believe that sports play a significant role in developing attentiveness, excellence, team-spirit conflict resolution, handling success and failure, decision making, appreciation and sportsmanship.

A large number of deluxe air conditioned buses owned by the school are well equipped with wireless GPS Tracking systems and CCTV cameras. The need for safe passage of each child to school and back home is of paramount importance to us. To ensure safe travel the school has its own fleet of school buses designed as per standards and manned by trained drivers and personnel sensitized to the needs of small children. For supervision and monitoring a transport attendant is on board throughout the journey. Besides ensuring the implementation of the safety norms, all staff on the bus is well trained in first aid and emergency management.

A safe school builds a culture of safety with awareness and vigilance along with sensitivity of issues involved. Safety and security of a child is of utmost importance to us at G.D. Goenka Indirapuram. Our campus is equipped with 300+ CCTV cameras to have round the clock vigilance in every corner of the school. Teachers, security guards and well trained nannies are always alert in establishing safety. Frequent emergency fire drills are conducted so that students’ safety is assured at all levels and they are prepared and made aware to respond to every catastrophe natural or manual. The school infrastructure includes proper electrical and fire safety mechanisms in order to ensure safe and secure environment for children
