We are rebuilding this site in the open. Pages arrive as they are ready, and the most useful things for parents come first. If a corner looks unfinished, it is.

The school thinks out loud, in public.

Not only news. Arguments.

What we tried, what it cost, what we would do differently. Written by facilitators and leadership, read by parents and educators well beyond Noida.

A prospectus is written to close. A journal is written to think. When a facilitator writes up a project that did not work, the account is public and permanent, and our parents read it. That is a real constraint on exaggeration, and we chose it deliberately.

Why a school should publish

A journal shows you what a school believes.

Read a few pieces and you will see something a campus tour cannot show: whether a school's stated philosophy survives contact with an ordinary school day.

Free to read, free to subscribe. You do not need a child at the school.
