SAMSIDH INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL

Samsidh, which translates to 'be prepared' in Sanskrit, was founded with the vision to prepare children for life.

In modern times, there has been a huge spike in technology and changing lifestyles. Change is the only constant, and our country has seen many revolutionary changes in the last few decades. However, in the field of education, we still follow the age-old practice of recognizing someone only by their grades and scores in exams. Unfortunately, no importance is given to the acquisition of skills and behavior. It is unfortunate that 80% of our graduates are not work-ready, and the remaining 20% require some form of orientation.

Although our graduates excel in 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 teach students the knowledge required, the 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. To achieve this, we have tailored three core values: compassion, humility, and happiness into our curriculum, where students learn values of compassion and humility as skills and happiness as science.

To be the leaders of the 21st century, today's 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 progressing rapidly materialistically, we are regressing rapidly psychologically. Unfortunately, we are equating happiness to achievement. There is an urgent need for us to make a paradigm shift that achievement is the result of happiness, the ability to take risks, to take the fear of failure by the horns. And 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.
