Conforming to the Vision 2025 goals of CMS, we have incorporated new approaches, learning pedagogies, and SDGs of the United Nations to make education child centric.

CMS Aliganj Campus I adopted the Cambridge International Curriculum to foster an educational paradigm that transcends conventional teaching-learning boundaries. The curriculum is applauded for its intellectual rigour, emphasis on critical reasoning, and capacity to cultivate globally competent individuals. Armed with internationally recognised Cambridge qualifications, CMS students possess a distinct advantage when applying to elite universities and pursuing professional careers globally.

"A true teacher would never tell you what to do. But he would give you the knowledge with which you could decide what would be best for you to do.”

— Christopher Pike, Sati

As I begin my journey on campus in June 2024, I am filled with emotions and thoughts. Our goal is to transform this campus into a joyful sanctuary rooted in universal values, global awareness, excellence, and service. We envision our students shaping a world free from discrimination, fostering universal brotherhood and global understanding.

Each day presents new challenges as we nurture future leaders with values like love, responsibility, honesty, and wisdom. Guided by 'Jai Jagat' and 'Vasudhaiv Kutumbkam', we aim for world unity and peace. Every child entrusted to us holds unique potential, and we strive to cultivate each one beyond academic success in a globally competitive environment.

Recognising and nurturing individual talents from an early age, we aim to develop well-rounded personalities equipped for life’s journey. We look forward to guiding our students to become global citizens dedicated to unity and peace.

ABOUT CAMPUS

Founded on June 30, 1993, by Founder-Manager Dr Jagdish Gandhi and Founder-Director Dr Bharti Gandhi, CMS Aliganj Campus I upholds a legacy of academic excellence and innovation in education. The campus is led by Senior Principal Mrs Jyoti Kashyap and Principal Mrs Shivani Singh, who nurture foundational values while guiding students towards futuristic learning.

Affiliated with the CISCE board, the campus offers education from Montessori to Grade XII, with Science and Commerce streams at the ISC level. In March 2023, a new Cambridge Section under Cambridge International Education was inaugurated, which includes grades I to IX.

The campus features state-of-the-art infrastructure, including spacious, well-ventilated classrooms with whiteboards and smart panels; well-equipped laboratories for Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Biotechnology, and Robotics; well-stocked libraries; an Olympic-size swimming pool; a splash pool for children; a spacious playground; and an infirmary. The new campus building, inaugurated on 4th July 2012, reflects CMS’s vision for modern architecture and futuristic education. An integrated ERP system efficiently manages both academic and administrative records.

A dedicated Jai Jagat section provides targeted support to aspirants of JEE, NEET, CLAT, and other competitive exams. Students receive personalised guidance at the Career Counselling Centre. It implements the ‘Study Abroad’ programme and organises career fairs and workshops, enabling learners to make informed decisions.

‘Celesta’, an international ‘Festival of Music & Dance’ hosted every alternate year, fosters a deep appreciation of cultural diversity by encouraging intercultural exchange among students. Additionally, the Model United Nations (MUN), organised by the campus, promotes global awareness, thoughtful dialogue, and diplomatic engagement.

Rooted in a strong sense of civic responsibility, students and teachers at CMS Aliganj Campus I lead various outreach programmes focused on water and energy conservation, animal care, and social service. Students mentor their underprivileged peers through the “Each One–Teach One” initiative. Other community-building initiatives like JYEP (Junior Youth Empowerment Programme) instil empathy, commitment to community service, and a sense of purpose in students. Such interventions nurture holistic development and raise students as socially responsible and conscious individuals.
