SAMSIDH INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL

In modern times, there has been a surge in modern technology and changing lifestyles. Change is the only constant, and our country has undergone many revolutionary changes in the last few decades. However, sadly, in the field of education, we still follow the age-old practice of recognizing someone only by their grades and scores in exams. No importance is given to the acquisition of skills and behavior. It is unfortunate that eighty percent of our graduates are not work-ready, and the remaining twenty percent also require some kind of orientation.

Although our graduates perform well on content with rote learning, they struggle with conceptual understanding, which is a combination of knowledge, skill, and application to real-life situations. These thoughts led to the creation of Samsidh Schools, which teaches students the required knowledge, skills to apply the learned knowledge in real-life situations, and the equanimous behavior required to lead a contented life. Samsidh follows the CBSE curriculum.

Samsidh believes in equipping children to become future leaders who are compassionate, humble, and happy. Thus, to become future leaders, we have tailored three core values - compassion, humility, and happiness - into our curriculum. Students learn values of compassion and humility as skills, and happiness as science.

To be the leaders of the 21st century, children require the skills of curiosity, creativity, initiative, interdisciplinary thinking, empathy, and gratitude. We at Samsidh are aware that we need to equip our children with these skills, together with ethical values that will help them shine as 21st-century leaders. All of these are taught as a way of life in our schools, and we are confident that our children will be future leaders.

While we are rapidly progressing materially, we are regressing psychologically. Unfortunately, we are equating happiness with achievement. There is an urgent need for us to shift our paradigm that achievement is the result of happiness, the ability to take risks, to take the fear of failure by the horns. This is what we teach all our children here at Samsidh.

We teach them that achievement is the result of happiness and values, not vice versa. The children are taught to look at failure as a stepping stone to success, to applaud everyone’s achievements, to veer off the beaten track, and take risks as these are the skills required for a 21st-century leader.
