My Vision of School

Education is so important an issue that it cannot be left in academicians' hands alone. 

I propose that there are following six dimensions on which children should be developed during their school days: 

1. Ability to Communicate

2. Analytical Ability - numerical and verbal 

3. Understanding of how the world works - Understanding of Science 

4. Awareness of the world that we live in 

5. Sound Body 

6. Ability to perform 

Now that my children are already well past the school stage, I wish to see the report card of my grandchildren in above format.

Accordingly I visualize that in a new school of my dreams, there will be no department of English or Hindi or Tamil etc. There will be the department of communication having not only experts of different languages but experts in debating and public speech.

The organization structure would also be reflected in the architecture of the school. These will be as follows:
