About SRS School

“Give the pupils something to do, not something to learn; and the doing of such a nature as to demand thinking; learning naturally results”
John Dewey

Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan Lab School is set up as a lab school based on American psychologist John Dewey’s theory of experiential schools set up in America in 1930s. Dewey believed that students should be involved in real- life tasks and challenges and there could be focus on teacher, student and environmental interaction rather than traditional lectures. Educators are responsible, therefore, for providing students with experiences that are immediately valuable and which better enable the students to contribute to society. Learning by doing is more fun and results in long term gains. Children construct their own knowledge depending on their interest and capability.

The school is set up in technical collaboration with The Shri Ram School, Gurgaon. Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan Lab School aims at establishing a reputation for educational innovation and academic excellence through action research into educational best practices worthy of emulation.
