Towards Perfection... through Education
Established 28 years ago, the Vivekananda Residential School was started with very high ideals. We take inspiration from Swami Vivekananda's philosophy of universal brotherhood. The culture and environment at Vivekananda Residential School helps the students imbibe the same and become responsible citizens of tomorrow.
We are proud of the energetic ambience in our school and encourage you to explore it at your convenience by visiting the campus on any event day. In each child's education, a positive elementary experience is of paramount importance. We take pride in our excellent student-teacher ratios, inspiring classrooms and co-curricular opportunities. The warm welcome that awaits visitors to our school reflects the supportive and cheerful learning environment which is Vivekananda!
Since its inception in 1983, Vivekananda Residential School has focused on the ongoing development of the whole person. Today, this traditional core value is reflected throughout our School. We offer challenging academic programs to meet individual needs, exciting co-curricular activities to encourage participation and solid values to foster respect and understanding.
Our committed faculty and staff focus on your child as an individual. Children are guided to develop the knowledge, skills and attitudes which foster life-long learning and happiness. Class excursions and special school activities help our students learn about character, leadership and sound values. We believe that the optimistic child who is supported by an effective home-school partnership succeeds socially, emotionally and academically.
A good alumni is a reflection of the strong fundamentals of an institution, and Vivekananda Residential School takes pride in the successes that its alumni had over the past years.
Vivekananda Residential School is a school brimming with energy and creativity!.
A philosophy that goes beyond just marks
While we recognise the important role that marks and honours play in a student's life, we also recognise the fact that they are not everything.
The mission of Vivekananda Residential School (VRS) is to provide a stimulating educational environment so that children can develop their latent talents. Acknowledging a broad and multifaceted definition of potential, the school recognizes, single or in a team, creative and productive thinking, talent in the visual and performing arts, leadership, and psychomotor ability, in addition to general intellectual ability and academic aptitude.
VRS follows CBSE curriculum to nurture children's advancement through the progressive stages of social and intellectual development. The teachers integrate basic skills of the curriculum with higher levels of thinking, ultimately leading to creative problem solving. Students are presented with a wide variety of experiences and materials. They are encouraged to develop confidence and skill in all areas, to find challenges, and to test their talents in new and original ways. As they mature, students are expected to take increasing responsibility for their learning.
At VRS we believe that education should prepare students to make a positive impact on the future. Students are expected to pursue excellence, both academically and personally, and to show concern and respect for others in the world in which they live.
Beyond just Teaching
Teachers form the backbone of any institution and VRS realizes this fully. Great care is taken to recruit the best of talent and the school also gives the teachers enough time to get used to the VRS way of teaching and education. This is necessary because VRS believe in the all round development of a child, not just academic advancement.
At VRS, we provide the tools and then point students towards discovery. Our faculty uses real-world situations, thought-provoking problems and engaging lessons to give students a well-balanced, up-to-date education designed for mastery of basic skills through inquiry. Emphasis is placed on the development of insight not memorization. Teachers set up situations, problems, and lessons designed to allow students to learn by inquiry and discovery.
Committed to the development of the whole child, our teachers also provide opportunities for the growth of positive self-concept and awareness of self and personal values. The school has a low teacher student ratio which results in close relationship between teacher and students. By balancing a program of strong personal development with an expanding focus on the world, we foster an appreciation of individual and cultural differences along with a recognition of the fundamental interdependence of all people.
As a CBSE curriculum based school, VRS is naturally tuned to lay a strong foundation for students and to prepare students for national and international level exams such as IIT-JEE, EAMCET, AIEEE, TOEFEL, GRE and so on from Class VIII onwards.
