Philosophy

Inspired by the ideals and ideas of integrated education of Sri Aurobindo and The Mother, the educational aim of MatriKiran is to help children develop their physical, mental, emotional, psychic, and spiritual facets through learning by exploration and discovery. We believe that our institution is a place where every child needs to be happy, and where learning can take place unhindered by the burden of expectations. For us, spirituality and value education are important ingredients towards helping young children understand themselves and the world around them.

Sri Aurobindo and The Mother believed that souls of all children have a natural inclination to learn and are waiting for the call of knowledge to awaken them to meaningful and pleasurable living. This is where we begin at MatriKiran - keeping the child, the learner, the organic soul - in mind. With guidance, focus, encouragement, and love, we help the child to become fully aware and conscious of all that is around him. A consciousness that leads them to awaken their own self to truth, light, and knowledge so that they mature into unique, vibrant, productive, and compassionate human beings.

This philosophy has given birth to MatriKiran and reflects the soul of this institution. It is this identity that gives us our sense of commitment and focus.

Motto

"vidya jeevanam jyoti"

which in Sanskrit means Knowledge is the Light of Life, is the school motto and reflects the qualities and characteristics which are at the core of our mission. We believe education is a vehicle to foster character, competence, and compassion in every student and all efforts are directed towards the achievement of this goal.

LEED Platinum Certified

MatriKiran Shines with LEED Platinum

MatriKiran School has earned the prestigious LEED Platinum Certification from the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC) for its outstanding commitment to sustainability. This certification, awarded under LEED Operations + Maintenance (O+M), signifies the highest standard for environmental performance in building design, operation, and maintenance.

With a focus on energy efficiency, water conservation, and sustainable design, MatriKiran School's 8.25-acre campus—featuring a Junior School on Sohna Road and a High School in Sector 83—demonstrates a significant reduction in its ecological footprint. The School utilises natural light and ventilation, and green spaces, while operating without air conditioning in learning areas to enhance student well-being.

Chairperson Mrs. Divya Bhalla expressed happiness on this achievement, stating, “This certification reflects our dedication to sustainability and education, providing an exemplary learning environment while caring for the planet. Our mission is to nurture responsible individuals for a better world."

MatriKiran School sets a benchmark for educational institutions, promoting sustainability and environmental awareness within its community. The green building features enhance the learning experience, fostering a healthier and more productive environment for students.

Academic Excellence

We follow Integral and Integrated approach in our pedagogy. We engage students with hands-­on investigations and projects across the Grades and subject areas. We offer students an academic experience that is genuinely challenging, rich, and relevant. This lays the foundation for future learning, shapes early character development, and prepares students for entry into excellent universities. But what sets us apart is our expertise in social-emotional development that makes each student’s learning more robust.

The evaluation process at MatriKiran goes beyond the standardised tests; it is an ongoing process in various forms of learning. We believe each child learns best not by reliance on normative standards, testing or passively consuming knowledge, rather that each child learns best by actively constructing their own understanding based on his or her knowledge, skills and experience.

Our approach for academic excellence:

1) Continuous reviews and evaluation

2) Focus on individual growth

3) Lessons imparted by extremely experienced and qualified teachers.

Teachers Qualifications, Training and Experience

Our well qualified (some of our teachers have Doctorate degrees), experienced and ICSE trained teachers are experts at understanding the developmental characteristics and needs of children at the Grade level they are teaching. Teachers discern differences in learning styles among their students, and prepare lesson plans accordingly. Teachers try to deeply understand each student cognitively, socially and emotionally–and work closely with them. Our teachers continue their individual professional development through yearly training, both as individuals and as a group.

Student -Teacher Ratio

MatriKiran believes in a student teacher ratio that allows for an effective learning experience. Our maximum class size is designed never to exceed 25 students.
