The Yellow Train Family of Teachers.

Teachers are society’s heroes.

India is a land and a culture where the place of the teacher was held sacred. Bringing back the reverence for the teacher and the task is something that inspires us at the school.

Revitalising the social identity of the Teacher and discovering passionate and talented teachers has been our pursuit. The school has an eclectic community of teachers from all walks of life – artists, doctors, dentists, healers, architects, engineers and various other professionals who have relinquished their careers to discover a teacher in them. The school offers various developmental programs for teachers and people aspiring to be teachers. 

The school works to serve the children who come through the door to meet us each day. And at the heart of this endeavour, stands a circle of teachers, bearing the deepest conviction that they are supported by the spiritual world. And they, stand there, with an ability to intuit what the times are asking of the school today.
