General Information
The basic purpose of education is to
realize the potential in the children. Every child is endowed with creative
abilities and it is the responsibility of educational institutions to bring
out the talents of the children- to provide opportunities and environment
that make them successful human beings.
The Indian Public School, Mrityunjaya
Dham residential campus was started in 2001 and spread over an area of 100
acres, the entire school campus has patches of green and parklands. Tucked
amidst the Himalayas (to its north) and the Shivalik ranges (to the south)
the school provides a natural playground for children, keeping them in the
lap of Mother Nature. In fact, the school campus has been planned in such
a manner that only 20% of the total area will be concrete structures while
the rest of the campus will be a harmonious blend of green patches, parklands
and water-bodies.
The campus enthralls a person immediately
on entry by soothing ambience of nature along with open spaces - providing
not only healthy, clean, pollution free surroundings, but also the ideal
environment for a healthy and sensitive growth of young impressionable minds.
It also provides a perfect setting for their moral, emotional, aesthetic
and spiritual development and a balanced growth of their character and personality,
which educationists have always believed to be an impact of close communication
with nature.
Our education system integrates the most
relevant and meaningful features of the ancient Gurukula with the best of
the scientifically designed modern systems enlivened by psychological and
educational research. Living in perfect harmony with nature, both teachers
and students in the school have ample opportunities to imbibe service-mindedness
and inculcate ethical principles.
It is our hope that the products of IPS,Dehradun
will be courageous citizens of the world, experts in their chosen fields
spreading the aura of human values to make the world a better place to live
in.
It is a co-educational, English medium
purely residential school, with classes I to XII, affiliated to the ICSE
Board, New Delhi.
