“We are delighted beyond measure to be ranked India’s #1 Central government day school once again. I attribute our success to high-quality teachers, enthusiastic students and a well-connected parents’ association. It’s very gratifying that your survey respondents have awarded us high scores for faculty competence, academic reputation and parental involvement. Also our top score for community service is very satisfying as the school’s community outreach programme SPARSH is very popular with students. APS, Delhi Cantt is an inclusive school where teachers put in great efforts to enable every child to realise her potential. Recently some of our children with special needs competed in the Berlin Olympics and one of them won a gold medal for the country” — Neetu Kapoor, principal, Army Public School, Delhi Cantt (3,706 students,149 teachers). “The India #3 rank is a huge motivation for our teachers who made conscious and dedicated efforts to improve upon last year’s #5 ranking. I congratulate the team on this commendable achievement. Though we have improved our scores on all parameters of school education excellence, I am very pleased with our high scores on the parameter of mental and emotional well-being services and special needs education. While we continuously strive to create a stress-free and joyous learning environment for all students, our special educators, counsellor and occupational therapists have enabled and empowered our 35 children with special needs” — Dr. Parul Kumar, principal, Navy Children School, Nausena Baugh, Visakhapatnam (3,500 students and 150 teachers).
