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 future is built on brains, not prom court, as most people can tell you after attending their high school reunion. But you’d never know it by talking to kids or listening to the messages they get from the culture and even from their schools.”
—Anna Quindlen (b. 1953)
“Why does philosophy use concepts and why does faith use symbols if both try to express the same ultimate? The answer, of course, is that the relation to the ultimate is not the same in each case. The philosophical relation is in principle a detached description of the basic structure in which the ultimate manifests itself. The relation of faith is in principle an involved expression of concern about the meaning of the ultimate for the faithful.”
—Paul Tillich (1886–1965)
