Our Vision

We  live in a world today that is highly competitive and stressful resulting in people losing their way in their quest for success. What can we teach our children to help them stand out from the crowd and be successful? How can we help them develop their personalities and help them evolve into great human beings?

For a person to become a successful human being they need to excel in the external world – their academics, careers and professions, and in their internal world – their strength of character, values and principles. Dagshai Public School was founded with the vision to impart true holistic education to help children succeed in all aspects of life. This philosophy led Sardar Raghbir Singh Bir to create a one-of-a-kind educational institute.

Sardar Raghbir Singh Bir was an avid spiritualist, social reformer and a successful businessman. He is best remembered for the dozens of books he wrote on spirituality, in the Punjabi language, based on his deep study of Sri Guru Granth Sahib & many other books on  religion & philosophy . All the books authored by him , have since been translated in English , for the convenience of the English knowing people , all over the world.    On great demand from the Hindi knowing readership, his master piece book, “Bandgi Naama”   has been translated in Hindi also.

His vision for an evolved system of education is achieved through :

a) An experienced team of teachers, state of the art teaching facilities, innovative learning and technologically advanced classrooms 

b) Personality development through a plethora of extra-curricular activities

c) Spiritual teachings and practises integrated into the day-to-day lives of the students

DPS uses the principles of Divinity and its key values of equality, love, honesty, duty and devotion to provide a strong moral and spiritual foundation for the children, in the true spirit of universal brotherhood.”

Educational Initiatives

Tests and Examinations:-

Children are tested regularly and continuously for their academic progress, Class-work, Home-work, Class-tests, Projects, etc. The report cards are given to the parents four times a year to apprise them of the academic proficiency and progress of the child. To maintain the high standards of education the expectations of the school are high and generally children secure good grades.

Parent-Teacher Meetings:

Continuous evaluation of the development of the students is of prime importance to both parents and teachers alike. It is in the best interest of the child that the parents and teachers form a cohesive team in working to achieve this objective. Hence, parents are constantly encouraged and are provided with opportunities to interact with the teachers and to assist and share in the progress of their children.

Winter Coaching:

For students of ICSE & ISC winter coaching camp of about a month is held to clear any doubts, revise their syllabus and prepare them for Board exams.
