Based on the Gandhian philosophy of Truth, Peace and Simplicity,the Mahatma Gandhi Mission Schools are a space for free expression with mutual respect and affection. The schools welcome students from diverse backgrounds and invite them to blend into a universal environment of humanity. The well-being of every child is prioritized and (s)he is scaffolded to ‘Be the Best (s)he Can’.
The environment at MGM Schools is infused with positivity and happiness, where children are continually imbibing and emulating the fourfold sutras of Compassion, Knowledge, Strength and Spirituality.
The child’s growth in the school and beyond is harnessed in a way to encompass the subtle and integrated principles of Truth, Peace and Simplicity. The various aspects of this philosophy are depicted in the ‘Wheel of Life’, as adapted from principles of Mahatma Gandhi’s Satyagraha.
The ‘Wheel of Life’ rotates at a uniform pace balancing the various elements of growth and development in the child. The key reason WHY a child needs to build Compassion, Knowledge, Strength and Spirituality is to help him get aligned to the path of ‘Truth, Peace and Simplicity’. By practising these values, WHAT the child gains is Competence, Good Health and Mindfulness and a Spirit of Service. The HOW of the processes is an integration of daily practices chalked out meticulously to make the end objective a reality.
