Ms. Barinder Kaur

Principal
Chanakaya International School

It is my pleasure to welcome you to Chanakaya International School Jalandhar. Our school is committed to provide a high-quality education that prepares our students for success in the 21st century. At Chanakaya International School, we believe that education is not just about academic achievement, but also about character development and social responsibility.

We endeavour to create a stimulating and nurturing environment that encourages curiosity, innovation, and critical thinking. The role of the teacher is very crucial. A teacher can mould the personality of a child. Children have their own viewpoints, sense of judgement and observation. They consider their teacher a storehouse of knowledge.

The teachers are giving and should give their best so that child develops a wholesome personality and not the distorted one. The teaching-learning process is triangular and the focus should be on the child. The endeavour of parents and teachers should be to inculcate values in a child. It is the need of today. A student has to be both literate and educated.
