Overview

Since then, this CBSE-affiliated K-12 co-ed day school has earned an excellent reputation in Kanpur for providing 21st-century K-12 education to its 2,900 students including 1,000 girl children tutored by 153 teachers. In the latest EW India School Rankings 2018-19, SPSEC is ranked Kanpur’s #1 co-ed day school and #4 in Uttar Pradesh.
