VSS School was started as a result of the efforts of a Vindhyachal Shikashan Sanstha who felt the need to start an institution on the lines of leading Public Schools in the country.
Thus a society was formed called VSS School to run the school in 2007, the golden jubilee year of our independence to fund and run the school as a secular, non-residential, co-educational English medium school.
The aim was to establish a full-day school which would provide individualised student-centred education for the all-round personality development of the students with innovative methodology and the added advantage of ‘no satchels and no home work’ at least in the lower classes.
Thus, VSS School was established in 2016 and started functioning in the Badnapur.
VSS School is run by Vindyachal Shikashan Sanstha, Jalna,
Keeping in mind the vision and mission, the school has been affiliated to the progressive Board, New Delhi, and the school curriculum is based on documents such as the 'National Curriculum Framework 2005', NCERT position papers, CBSE CCE Manual, 'Learning - the treasure within' etc. The medium of instruction in the school is English with Hindi as the second language (up to class 10) and Marathi as the third language (up to class 8). The classes start from LKG and go up to X. School hours extend from 8.00 am to 3.00pm depending on the class.
The afternoon session is primarily devoted for doing assignments which otherwise would have been given as homework as well as for extracurricular activities and games.
The students complete most of the assignments under the guidance and supervision of subject teachers in the school itself.
They do not carry any ‘homework’ in lower classes. Textbooks and notebooks are issued by the school and there is provision to keep them in the school itself. The children therefore do not have to lug heavy school bags nor do the parents have to bother helping their children with the homework.
The school does not encourage students to take any tuition.
The number of students in any class is 25 and as such it is possible for the teachers to give individual attention to each and every student in the class. Children who lag behind are given additional help during the preparation period and if need be during games time.
Teachers recognise that each child is different and his/her learning style is different and so make an effort to reach out to him/her in the best way he/she understands. Individual attention is not restricted to academics but to every aspect of education, be it sports & games, extracurricular activities, life-skills, discipline or value education.
