Vidyasagar Shishu Niketan is run by the Society for the Betterment of Education which was formed by a group of educationists and administrators on 4 September 1974 with the active help and encouragement from Sri Dipak Ghosh I.A.S, the then District Magistrate of Midnapore to impart better education to the school going children of Midnapore Town and to establish institutions for this purpose. This group felt that our children should be able to feel at home anywhere in India during their student life and also later in their working life. For this reason, they decided to set up a school where education would be imparted through the medium of English.
"Education does not only mean learning, reading, writing and arithmetic, it should provide a comprehensive knowledge" - Ishwarchandra Vidyasagar
Named after the veteran and stalwart Bengali polymath Ishwarchandra Vidyasagar and acknowledged as one of the elite and premier English medium institutions of West Bengal, Vidyasagar Shishu Niketan has been enlightening and impregnating the young minds with light of true knowledge and feeding the sweet ambrosia of education since its birth till the chasm of a timeless future. The inception of the institution dates back to January, 1975 in the hands of a group of highly educated intelligentsia of Midnapore, known as Society for the Betterment of Education, with the sole motto of " Transforming potential into achievement". The young sapling of that day has withstood the ravages of time and grown up as a giant banyan tree now. Situated at the heart of the town Midnapore, Vidyasagar Shishu Niketan started its journey with preparatory and kindergarten classes only, under the able guidance of Miss S. Mukherjee, Honorary Secretary and Principal, herself a teacher of great distinction.
The school aims at providing a comprehensive education, as prioritized by Pandit Ishwarchandra Vidyasagar, and trains students intellectually, morally, ethically, spiritually and physically so as to suffuse in them the right codes of conduct and the right attitude in life, thereby preparing them loyal and useful denizens of our country.
Well-equipped laboratories, a library of almost 5000 books, dedicated and highly educated well trained professional faculty members speak volumes about the institution. We believe that to lead a full-fledged life, academic knowledge alone is not that sufficient. In VSN we take proper care of a child's cognitive as well as creative faculties. The school has its own Singing Club, Debate Club, Quiz Club, Drama Club and Extempore Club. Dedicated facilitators frequently keep planning for several cultural and co-curricular activities throughout a calendar year to help individual aspirant in achieving laurels in other fields as well.
The school has two campuses. The younger students have a cozy campus in the midst of the town at Sepoy Bazar and the senior section is situated at Rangamati. Situated 'far from the madding crowd', the picturesque site and blossoming green ambience makes the campus free from chaos and pollution. The campus is spread over almost two acres of lush green land and boasts of perfect learning environment. The school has its own transportation system (for high school), making it easy and safe to reach.
Today's education system demands very high standard of professional expertise and acumen from the teachers. VSN boasts of faculty members who are well educated, well trained and above all individuals with all essential human qualities.
The school runs a series of seminars and workshops throughout the year to keep the students and teachers abreast with what is happening across the globe.
Our classroom programme includes Project Based Learning (PBL), a student-centered pedagogy that involves a dynamic classroom approach in which students acquire a deeper knowledge through active exploration of real-world problems and challenges.
Educationists across the globe believe that Multimedia Based Education (MBE) is the best way to make a student adept in learning. The school has fully functional smart class rooms with all modern and cutting edge equipments, making it easy and interesting for students to learn.
A healthy mind resides in a healthy body, an unavoidable necessity for all, particularly for a school going boy or girl. In VSN we take games very seriously as it teaches them how to function in a competitive society and it gives children the confidence of being an individual with overall development. The school also provides Yoga classes for the students for physical as well as mental fitness.
