Pushp Niketan School

Pushp Niketan School is located in a semi urban town of Dhampur in the Dhampur Sugar Mills campus in Bijnor district of Uttar Pradesh State in India. It is situated in a beautiful campus, loved by children. It is visualized to be a world class model for progressive education with child centric education philosophy, pedagogies and processes. Here, we have established a non hierarchical, alternative school promoting excellence in learning and sound values in a safe, supporting and stimulating environment. The school is a nonprofit venture, presently supported by the Sugar mill and caters to the people residing in and around Dhampur town and rural areas. It is around six years old now. This school has been started as a pilot venture to bring in high quality thematic/inquiry based child-centered education methodologies to small towns and rural settings in India. A great thought behind this project is “a lot is happening in the cities, not in small towns, so let’s join hands in raising the quality of life and education in small towns like Dhampur.”
