The Scindia School – Best Residential School in India for Boys

The history of The Scindia School provides a fascinating insight into the changes happening in India from feudal times to the modern day. The Scindia School was founded as The Sardar School in 1897 by the visionary HH Maharaja Madhavrao Scindia I.

The turn of the nineteenth century was a period of turmoil and disorientation, as the colonial system of education, with English as the medium of instruction, was displacing the traditional pathshalas, madarsas and gurukuls. However, even then, the school captured the best of the learning of the new world and combined it with the finest of timeless India.

In this respect, The Scindia School has been the torchbearer of modern education systems, combining them with a unique Indian ethos. It has, in every way, always been one step ahead of the times.
