School Philosophy
The Indus World School was established by IIT and IIM alumni R. Satya Narayanan, Gautam Puri, Nikhil Mahajan, Sujit Bhattacharyya, R. Srinivasan, D. Vijay Kumar and Shiv Kumar who wished to create "a place of learning with a difference".
The aim of this school, according to Satya Narayanan R, founder and chairman of Career Launcher India Limited, is that students must love to come to school and that school must connect to the natural careers of the child by making the child realize his/her natural potential during the school years. Satya Narayanan argued that, "Students go for tuitions because they do not get proper coaching at their schools/colleges. Our school will, therefore, restrict students from taking tuition and if a student underperforms or is not satisfied with the teaching procedure, the parents can question the school teachers themselves."

Famous quotes containing the words school and/or philosophy:
“The happiest two-job marriages I saw during my research were ones in which men and women shared the housework and parenting. What couples called good communication often meant that they were good at saying thanks to one another for small aspects of taking care of the family. Making it to the school play, helping a child read, cooking dinner in good spirit, remembering the grocery list,... these were silver and gold of the marital exchange.”
—Arlie Hochschild (20th century)
“The literature of the poor, the feelings of the child, the philosophy of the street, the meaning of household life, are the topics of the time. It is a great stride. It is a sign,—is it not? of new vigor, when the extremities are made active, when currents of warm life run into the hands and the feet.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
