Vision

THE LIGHT OF EDUCATION LASTS A LIFETIME

Swarnprastha Public School is an initiative of the Indraprastha Education and Charitable Society. The name of the school is deeply rooted in ancient Indian history.

If one turns back the pages of history, one will find that present day Sonipat is the modern derivation of Swarnprastha, a city that finds its mention in the Mahabharata. Presently, this co-educational institution admits students from Nursery to Standard XI. The School is affiliated to the Central Board of Secondary Education, New Delhi.

The Campus is set amidst lush green fields where nature is at its very best. Both Boarding and Day Boarding facilities are offered to students. Along with essential co-curricular activities special emphasis is laid on a student’s health and attitudinal orientations. Our aim is to impart education not just from textbooks but from insights which life presents. Hence, our philosophy stands as:

“THE ABC’S OF LIFE”

LEARNING TO LEARN

The School motto’ Learning to Learn’ depicts our perspective of life as a permanent learning process. The School believes that students will truly shine only if each and every one of these special individuals is given a due care and nurtured for what he or she is. We have earmarked our focus and resources to ensure that students spend formative years of their life in an environment conducive to learning; learning that goes beyond the words of teachers, learning that is self-motivated and self-implemented. Learning that lasts a lifetime.

STRIVING TO ACHIEVE

The School aims to provide a comprehensive system of education to its students that encourages their overall development and nurtures them to grow into responsible citizens of the country.

The curriculum of the School has been aptly designed to deliver a balance between academic and co-curricular activities. Moral and spiritual values are inculcated in these young minds in order to make them fully understand our culture, traditions and the secular character of our country. Armed with these values, we are sure that Swarnprastha students will take up causes and make a difference to the world when their time comes.

The School features various sporting facilities. Yoga, Pranayama, Meditation and other recognized and acclaimed Indian exercise systems, besides the regular sports, have been incorporated to further synergise the relation between body and mind.
