What is so special about Kendriya Vidyalaya?
Kendriya Vidyalaya is one of the best schools in India, I can say this because I was a student of Kendriya Vidyalaya for 12 years. (1st to 12th std)Currently there are 1202 Kendriya Vidyalayas all over India widespread in 25 regions.Now you ask what is special?KV taught us that we are Indians and regions, states, class, ethnicity cannot divide us.Common syllabus and books in all the schools, this made easy for parents as well as students with transferable jobs to adjust in new environment.Encouraging staff and experienced teachers providing best education , the exam paper for Non board classes also was set on regional level.Huge infrastructure with ample space for playground (separate for Primary and secondary)Good laboratories with access to all required instruments and chemicals. (Concentrated chemicals were used only around a lab assistants supervision) and massive library.Sports meet, annual meets and other extra co-curricular activities.( I was an athlete, prayer group singer as well as a trumpet player in the school band group)We were introduced to http://Think.com in our 6th standard, this is a secured web for students , teachers and schools to interact and share ideas, poems,stories etc. {We were far ahead of Facebook even at that time ;) :p }We had personality development classes, yoga classes, SUPW classes and adolescent classes in our teenage, we had proper sessions for this and we were informed the changes we go through the very much normal. ( This activity depends on based on the school you choose)NCC provided military training to students and motivated them to join armed forces.10. Indian Youth Parliament - All the KV schools trained students and recreated actual parliament session, the best school to portray this all over India won.11. I was never forced to mug up an answer to write in exam, my teachers always encouraged creative mind and answers as per the understanding12. Our School prayer - Daya Kar daan vidya Ka...If you ever meet any KVian in any part of the world, I can guarantee they will be confident and shinning in whatever field they choose to be in.Proud KVianThanks.PS - All Points mentioned above are true and practiced in most of the KV schools.
