Management
The school is managed by the Santiniketan Educational and Rural Development Society, Mydukur, which was registered under the Societies Registration Act XXI of 1860 in 1993.
Santiniketan English Medium School was started in 1993 by the Santiniketan Educational and Rural Development Society to provide comprehensive, quality English-medium education to children in and around the rural community of Mydukur. Admissions are offered irrespective of religion, caste, creed or colour. Sri G. Subbarami Reddy, son of Veera Reddy, gave concrete shape to the idea and founded the school.
The school began with classes up to Class VII in the founder's own buildings. It was recognised by the Government of Andhra Pradesh in 1995 and upgraded to a high school in 1999.
Today, the campus has permanent and semi-permanent buildings with facilities for students and staff, a well-stocked library, two audio-visual classrooms for multimedia learning, and internet access to support teaching and learning.
Our aims
- Provide quality education and develop each child's personality, talents, and mental and physical abilities to their fullest potential.
- Nurture young people with a keen sense of discipline, responsibility, self-reliance, integrity and loyalty.
Our philosophy
“Every child is potentially an independent thinker with an infinite capacity to acquire knowledge.”
Curriculum
The school follows the curriculum and syllabi prescribed by the State Council of Educational Research and Training (SCERT), Government of Andhra Pradesh.
