To develop and equip the children of India for the challenges of the 21st century.
To be the best and be recognised as raising the traditional standards of educational possibilities and outcomes for students, parents and society.
At Podar International School, the students from a very young age are trained and encouraged to be independent thinkers and to take on an approach of innovation and ingenuity. Therefore, when faced with a problem or a situation, our students do not simply look for ready answers but use their imagination and analytical abilities to create pragmatic solutions.
We believe that it is not enough for our children to just have great ideas. It is equally, if not more important that they are able to communicate these ideas effectively. We train our children to be effective communicators, armed with eloquence, assertiveness and clarity in thought to put forth their points with ease and without hesitation, irrespective of the audience or the occasion.
We believe that every Podar student should be able to adapt to the global scenario that they would be a part of – the scenario that is in a constant state of flux – the scenario where change is the only constant. We train the wards in our charge to be steadfast in an ever changing environment and think out of the box, using their skills and core competence to make sure their success is not a probability but certainty.
We live in an age where technology has pervaded every single space, right from agriculture to aerospace, economics to policy. The Podar approach to learning imparts our future generations with the necessary technical know-how and the awareness of the fundamentals of each technology so they are unfazed by changes and always up to the challenge.
Last but not the least, we understand that integrity, values and standards are what separate the successful from true success. It is a matter of pride for Podar International School that we don’t just make our children knowledgeable – we nurture the little saplings of wisdom, inculcating values and standards that will help achieve not just numerical success but also win the hearts of the world along the way.
