Best School in Gurgaon, Shikshantar School

Open and inclusive spaces that reflect openness to learning.

Enduring respect for children as thinkers and explorers.

Structures and processes ‘led’ by children, experiential education, collaborative work and skilful feedback.

Choices with a purpose that define children as individuals far more than their abilities.

VISION/ PHILOSOPHY

We believe all beings inherently love to learn. Children learn by sharing their discoveries with each other, their teachers and parents.

The vision of the school is to create and nurture a learning community of students, teachers and parents – a community that believes in the possibility of progressive development of children and adults through change in education. Each child is recognised for her own strengths, creating an environment free of judgement and conformity.

It’s a place where ‘I can be me’; true for a facilitator as much as for a student! Our Vision is to enable each child to develop a character that engages with the world with self-worth and acceptance of the other.

Drawing inspiration from the philosophy of Integral Education integration of physical, mental, social, emotional and psychic self of children is emphasised. We believe that acceptance of the self and conflict resolution through dialogue opens pathways to peace.

In the school children and facilitators are both learners; together they discover and construct knowledge. Collaboration is not limited amongst humans; we believe in co-existence and learning to live with and from Nature.

We believe in the philosophy of inclusion and facilitate an inclusive environment for children with varying abilities and from different socio-economic backgrounds.

Quiet adieu to our fish friends

At Shikshantar, the circle of life is a daily experience — in the flutter of butterflies, the rustle of trees, and quiet moments by the pond. Every morning, our children big and small , old and new pause, connect, and center themselves with the life around them.

We recently bid a quiet adieu to our fish friends at the Primary Block .

It sparked conversations with the children during Circle Time. Through gentle conversations, the Didis spoke to the children about caring for all living beings that share mother earth with us and handling loss with love and responsibility.

The children were reassured that Aris Turtle is safe and that the pond is being restored carefully and together, we reflected on care, loss, and responsibility for all living beings.

The pond with the turtle, a place of quiet connect for all members of Shikshantar family, awaits for life to return in some new form. Life continues with greater care and deeper gratitude for all living beings big and small - the trees, the flowers, the bees and many others .
