Educating for Life, Not Just for a Living
Chinmaya International Residential School (CIRS)

Why CIRS?
In the 1970s, Swami Chinmayananda observed a mass migration of India's brightest minds to foreign countries and expressed concern about the inevitable spiritual decline as future generations lost their connection to their Motherland. He envisioned an International Residential School, to ‘integrate the best of the East and West, a cultural home away from home to unearth the beauty and hidden potential of tomorrow’s leaders.'
Objectives of CIRS
"Here our children with a Western education but steeped in Indian culture can grow as ideal men and women — materially successful outside and spiritually peaceful within." - Swami Chinmayananda
Foundation Values of CIRS
At CIRS, educational processes are designed with the premise that the future of this world rests upon the overall competence, sensibility and goodness of its youth. In raising children of quality and purpose, to make them the kind of citizens the world needs today, we have to educate them not only with excellent academic instruction, but also with all the attention and care that they deserve and need to draw out their hidden potential.
Children respond when they are cared for, when they feel safe and most of all, when they develop a healthy sense of well-being. CIRS is committed to a continuous review of our approaches, functions, processes and procedures to create this sense of well-being.
The result is a School where the students are bright, confident and balanced individuals, in work and play. They cherish the love and nurturing which they receive and they respond positively. Many students comment that they feel as much a part of CIRS as they feel with their family at home.
The CIRS Experience
A unique fusion of the ancient and rich cultural heritage of the East and the creative and independent thinking of the West.
Students are nurtured and groomed through love and persuasion instead of harsh methods.
A concept-based and application-oriented teaching methodology.
Spiritual and value-based education imparted by resident spiritual guides who cater exclusively to the subtler emotional needs of the students.
A wide variety of extra-curricular activities catering to the individual needs, talents and interests of the students.
The curriculum is based on the ancient and well-tested traditional Indias Gurukula concept (teacher and student living together in a residential system) adapted to suit the modern and dynamic academic environment.
A state-of-the-art world class infrastructure.
Beautiful and secure surroundings and superior facilities.
CIRS is one of the few schools in India that offers the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) Certificate (National Board of Examination) as well as the International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma from Geneva, Switzerland.
Most importantly, a balanced and well-rounded educational system encouraging the unfoldment of the child at the physical, emotional, intellectual and spiritual levels of his/her personality
