Ajanta Public School, Basant Avenue, Amritsar came onto existence on 1st March, 1984. Monsieur Jean Jacque Magraner, Pedagogic Counselor, Embassy of France, New Delhi Visited the school on the same day. The school is the realization of the Visionary dreams and aspiration of late Smt Swaran Kapoor, who had always earnestly desired to build an institution where children would obtain good education in all its encompassing sense.
The school is situated amidst the peaceful, picturesque and the most fascinating site of Basant Avenue, An idyllic Avenue in Amritsar. The spacious and modern building of the school heralds welcome to entrants owing to its majestic structure. It is surrounded on all sides by its eye catching lush green gardens overflowing with flowers of different hues which permeate their fragrance all around.
Mission Statement
We had a discussion with our students, teachers & parents and identified the issue of saving water among students to be taken as priority as it is the need of the hour.
In the next three years Ajanta Public School will inculcate the habit of conserving every drop of water among students at all levels.
In the next meeting we realized that negative habits and beliefs can easily be eradicated with the effective use of imagination. Children become curious in a positive way so It was decided that pupils will be taught to think out of the box. Then another mission was decided.
The school will improve imaginative & creative skills of all the students by 2022.
Final Mission Statement:-
In the next 3 years the school will provide a mechanism to provide training to all the children for conserving every drop of water at home, in school and everywhere and by 2022 the school will ensure improved imaginative and creative skills of all the students in all the classes in all subjects.
Principal's Message
I have been dedicated to the field of education for more than 17 years. My administrative experience during past few years, my interactions with parents, teachers and students made me realise that education is a joint venture between school and home.
The foundation of a successful school is co-operation between the students, staff, parents and community. Along with teachers we shall focus on character education initiatives, common core skills, use of data to inform instruction strategies to increase student’s achievements and providing exciting challenging enrichment opportunities for all students. Parent’s contribution too is invaluable. Our approach involves working with parents to meet the individual needs of every student and supporting them to fulfill their academic and co-curriculum goals and dreams. I believe that we as educators are models of integrity. Children have never been very good at listening to their elders but they have never failed to imitate them.
Dear parents, it will be my actions that will communicate my commitment to you, to the students of APS and to this community. Still I shared some of my beliefs about education through this message, from you may deduce the expectations that I hold as principal.
As your principal, it is important to me that everyone who stops through our doors – teachers, students, parents – are excited to be here! This attitude enables us to meet the challenges of academic excellence in a positive, fun and nurturing environment. Please feel free to discuss any concerns, suggestions or ideas to make the best years ahead.
Prashant Mehra
