The Principal’s vision statement
There can be no question about the fact that education is the cornerstone of human development, the strongest pillar to ensure the survival of our planet. As a lifelong teacher and an educationist, I have witnessed the marvel of a young mind absorbing a new idea, grasping a new concept or solving a problem. That moment of sudden illumination is almost miraculous to see. It is these moments that create inventors, scientists, artists, writers, leaders and social reformers. At IMS, we have been turning out such winners since 2018.
The reason for this is not far to seek. In our school, we strive to create an optimum blend of academics, sports, extra-curricular activities, personality building, life skills, creativity, analytical thinking and more. All along, we inculcate the finest human and social values in each student, teaching him not just right from wrong, but how to stay on the path of virtue and integrity. We teach the importance of compassion, inclusion and generosity. We help him understand his duties and responsibilities as a citizen and a nation-builder.
Our mission is: To attract and develop exceptional students and teachers from all backgrounds to serve a meritocratic India; inspire them to be just and ethical citizens; train them to be wise and principled leaders; and prepare them to enter one of the strongest alumni fraternities – for life.
The School’s founder Sh. Vipan Kumar Sharma Ji, an eminent educationist, envisioned it to be an institution that would attract students from all sections of society, from every state of India and be completely secular. The only factors that matter are merit and the willingness to learn. The full boarding environment encourages a strong sense of community and helps to develop friendships that will be sustained – and be sustaining – in life beyond the school. Growing up in school teaches the students discipline, self- reliance and independence. They learn to adapt to any situation they may face in life and understand how to assess the personalities and capabilities of others around them. These are invaluable lessons that stand them in good stead all through their lives.
The environment of the school is awe-inspiring. Spread over 4 acres, the school is an oasis of architectural beauty and wide open spaces. The facilities range from the Library to Sports Grounds. We have more than 14 Marwari Horses. We have a separate Careers Information, Education and Guidance Department to counsel students to choose the best route in their life after school.
Our teaching faculty brings an enviable level of qualifications, experience and commitment. They play the roles of teacher, mentor, counsellor, guide and cheer leader with consummate skill. For them, teaching is not a job, but a calling, in which they grow and evolve to become better every day.
