“Education is not about learning of facts but training young minds to think.” – Albert Einstein

There is a big difference between cramming up facts and learning them so that they can be applied in productive ways. At Apex School, we try to work towards holistic development of our students by providing them the tools and experiences that encourage them to think.

The aim is to create empowered minds so that students are able to decide what is good for them, differentiate between right and wrong, choose opportunities that help build them up and enable them to live in harmony with all existence.

As the Vice Principal, I am delighted that the school’s values align with my own personal values, including the importance of trust, respect, innovation, and a sense of community.

One of our science laboratory assistants shared an experience with me. He was walking on a busy road one day when two girls ran to him and touched his feet. Mildly startled, and thinking it to be a case of mistaken identity, he was about to inform them of their mistake, when they identified themselves as former students who were currently pursuing MD degrees and wanted his blessings.

That perfectly embodies the character of our school; developing minds that grow into enlightened human beings who achieve success yet remain firmly grounded. That is what true education is all about.

Recently, we received a letter of appreciation from the honorable Minister of Environment, Forest and Climate Change for the participation of the school in making the Plantation Drive at Van Mahotsav a success.

The Eco Club of our school has been involved in tree plantation drives and environmental initiatives for years. We proudly boast several green spaces developed by our students and activities where students actively contribute to protecting the environment.

Parents often take pride in informing us how their children correct them when they litter in inappropriate places, use firecrackers irresponsibly, or cross traffic signals when the light is red.

Education imparted here is therefore not confined to classrooms alone but extends beyond them into everyday life.

As a Chinese proverb aptly says: “Tell me and I’ll forget; show me and I may remember; involve me and I’ll understand.”
