What does it mean to be a GPS-ite ? Our Tagline proclaims "Global Vision and Traditional values." How, one might ask, could these seemingly contradicting terms be embodied in one person or a school? When I tried to zoom in on one specific example, the best one I found was India our country itself. As an emerging global market, we see India positioning itself both as a technological powerhouse and also as a soft power exemplified best by our cultural ethnicity and our people power.

Yoga as a discipline which dates back to pre-Vedic Indian traditions, has catapulted centre stage as a panacea for almost all ills. We now see Yoga in it's myriad forms adopted all over by the people of the world but it's roots will always be from India. At GPS too we learn and discover new aspects of pedagogy and draw upon educational resources from all over the world. Yet we still hold on to our traditional value systems because that is what is unique and gives us our moorings. I see our students carry this core vision in all aspects of their life in school and hope that it stays along with them through the long journey of life.

As part of the management team, I can assure you of our school's mission to stick to this vision and strive to reach the heights expected by all our stakeholders.
