About School: Education should teach children how to think and not what to think”- This is the dictum on which the foundation of this institution was laid a century ago. A perfect jugalbandi of Indian ethos and modern education, where children are trained not merely to score marks but to be good human beings, who contribute to making this world a better place.Creative imagination and creativity are the cornerstones of the vision of the foundation of Modern School. Education with a holistic perspective is ensured where the development of every person’s intellectual, emotional, social, physical, artistic, creative and spiritual potential is ensured. Experiential Learning is encouraged through innovations like flipped classes, Reflection Sheets etc. Sports and co-curricular activities are given place of prime importance along with academics in the curriculum to encourage all- round development. The whole purpose of education is to turn mirrors into windows and that is what we at Modern strive to do.Founded in 1920, a century ago, Modern School is a visionary’s dream. Lala Raghubir Singh with the motivation of his father Rai Bahadur Sultan Singh, dreamt of an eclectic institution which would provide the nation leaders of tomorrow. It was a dream well ahead of its time and how it has stood the test! Right from its inception to its realisation, Lala ji was involved in the fruition of his dream. His father’s house in Kashmiri Gate was a hub for the National leaders of the time and they all had an influence on young Lala ji who decided to start a school embedded with moral values and modern ideas in response to Bapu’s call for national education. His education was majorly impacted by Master Amir Chand, Pearson, Rev C.F. Andrews and influenced by Gandhi ji and Tagore. He brought together a team of like minded individuals like Sir Sobha Singh and Dr S K Sen. Ms Kamla Bose, with her experience in education became the first Principal to implement the dreams of the visionary and that is how the journey began
