Chairman I am immensely pleased to present before you the website of Puranchandra Vidyaniketan in an interactive layout. My unwavering conviction is that in a world that is changing every millisecond, education needs to evolve too by keeping pace with technology.
The educational initiative of the Jagran Group has accepted the challenge by establishing a chain of Jagran Public Schools in various parts of the country so that they help bring about a change in youth, the future of the country.
It has been our constant endeavor to provide quality education coupled with sound character building, by blending Indian culture and heritage with an internationally accepted education system. Puranchandra Vidyaniketan strives for precisely that and the infrastructure and team of dedicated staff makes up for the ideal educational ambience at the school.
It is my firm belief that a child’s mind is a universe full of possibilities. It needs the right environment to develop to its maximum potential at school and at home. As the saying goes, “A child’s mind is like a dry sponge, ready to soak; all you need to do is to take it to the water.”

In today’s world we need people who are alert and sensitive; people who are seeker of knowledge and wisdom. Today, children need to start off early to match steps with or better still, thrust past the pace of development. The teachers and parents face the challenge of teaching their children to the needs of the day. It is possible by learning to know; learning to do; learning to be authentic and learning to live together.
Puranchandra Vidyaniketan epitomizes a way of education that embraces the best of the east and the west; the best of the modern and the traditional, to prepare every child to become a genuine world citizen. Our school motto is “VIDYA DADATI VINAYAM” – Knowledge bestows humility. We aim to inculcate ethical and moral values in a child by making them acquainted with ethos and culture through different mediums and Puranchandra Vidyaniketan website is one such medium that works as a catalyst to keep them abreast with what is going around.
All the students, alumni, wards and well-wishers are welcome to not just browse through what we post on this site but hope that they shall be a part of this pursuit of the best, intellectually and technically.

“The highest education is that which does not merely give the information but makes our life in harmony with all existence.” - Rabindranath Tagore
