What Others Say?
Indeed, a very innovative school. I saw such an approach for the first time. Many things to learn, even for teacher and people interested in education. Wish such innovative approaches are copied/developed at many more places.
AK Singh Director, Deptt of Education, Govt of India New Delhi, India April 19, 2015
Very impressed with the innovative and new techniques for encouraging creativity amongst young children. Also the emphasis on detecting any disability at a young age and addressing it. Moreover, the school recognises that different children will have different talents and interests and how important is to recognise this and develop the child's faculties accordingly. Overall, it was a great learning experience and we could use this experience in developing and implementing our schemes. I congratulate the organisers and the faculty and staff.

Imagine a school where all children have to do to is to play games, put up plays, and make field trips to botanical gardens and museums! Sounds too good to be true? Mridula Prakash's Creative School of Learning with its alternate method of teaching is making this dream come true for children.

"Entertaining education" is successful education of life. Education and learning should not be a burden, but something that can be grasped easily. "Creative Learning" is successful, if children learn and grow while playing and enjoying.

Our children carry enormous capacity for creativity. This we can only develop through this kind of education system. This experiment and endeavor on creative learning needs to be appreciated.
Dr Ramchandra Purbey Minister of Education, Government of Bihar Patna, Bihar, India April 19, 2015
If the learning is facilitated through thoughtful process - what emerges is an example of `School of Creative Learning'. Here every activity is planned with Specific thought. There is a commendable effort to integrate and balance the folk traditions, culture, science, arts, and modernity. This can not be achieved without hard work of the team. I wish multiplication and replication of such efforts.

This experiment of learning through creativity is worth praising. If education is perceived as an entertainment and not burden, child develops dedication to school and not hatred. This makes it easy for the educator to inculcate human values in children.
