Vision
The vision of SanviD is best captured by a beautiful poem of Rabindranath Tagore:
Where the mind is without fear and the head is held high;
Where knowledge is free;
Where the world has not been broken up
into fragments by narrow domestic walls;
Where words come out from the depth of truth;
Where tireless striving stretches its arms towards perfection;
Where the clear stream of reason
has not lost its way into the dreary desert sand of dead habit;
Where the mind is led forward by thee into ever-widening thought and action---
Into that heaven of freedom, my Father, let my country awake.

SanviD currently has the following classes: Pre-Nursery, Nursery, KG I, KG II, and Std. 1-7. Though admissions usually happen in the beginning of the academic year, bright students are encouraged to apply all throughout the year. Admissions are purely based on merit.
