Welcome to the website of M.E.S Balshikshan Mandir English Medium School. The School located in Pune, Maharashtra, is run by the Maharashtra Education Society. We aspire to empower all students to succeed in their world by offering a wide variety of challenging, enjoyable and successful curricular opportunities, sports programs, performing arts programs along with various clubs and life skill based activities.
The world today is changing at such an accelerated rate that we need to pause and reflect on system of education in schools. At Balshikshan Mandir we impart education to match the advancement in technology and globalization. As our students march ahead with the ethos of moral values and principles, we endeavour constantly to instill these qualities in our children. We take pride in helping them grow and develop into sensitive and responsible citizens of the next generation.Teamwork is the hallmark of Balshikshan Mandir. A committed and supportive management, dedicated teachers, caring and co-operative parents blend harmoniously to create a child-centric school. It is natural to find in this ambience, the intensive use of a variety of thinking activities, strategies and group dynamics so that the classrooms become alive. In such a surrounding when work and effort is valued, the child's self-esteem is heightened, and from this results self-motivation. We try to understand and work with each child, and we firmly believe that it is our responsibility to enable the child in our care to develop as a whole. I am very sure through collaborative effort we can achieve more to benefit our students who are the future leaders of tomorrow.
Our philosophy of education has always been meeting the needs of the individual child. Children acquire skills and knowledge easily if we can make the surroundings stimulating and purposeful. In the 21st century, the digital revolution has affected us all. Quite simply, it is changing everything: a brilliant barrage of information, entertainment, companionship and education is speedily available. In this era of cut throat competition, it is of paramount importance to impart an integrated education to the future citizens of the nation for successfully facing challenges. Balshikshan Mandir School, therefore, lays special emphasis on life skill activities, providing students an edge over others to be leaders in their respective field of activity. Through life skills programme, the school aims to develop a cadre of empowered, educated and healthy adolescents, capable of making decisions in life.In addition students are encouraged to take advantage of the many resources available to them- their teachers, the library, the computer laboratory labs, and the Science laboratory. Our sports facilities provide our students the launching pad to hone their talents and make a mark in a variety of sport disciplines.
Our commitment is to provide a safe, positive, intellectual learning environment that will empower students to become creative problem solvers, thinkers and inspired learners prepared for life in the twenty-first century. I would like to continue setting high expectations for our students with regard to academic performance within the classroom, participation in co-curricular activities as well as responsible citizenship at school and in the community.As far as the members of the teaching staff are concerned, I believe that effective teachers create opportunities for collaboration, problem-solving, and application of classroom learning to real life situations; you should design instruction to integrate a variety of innovative technological tools and resources to enhance learning; Collaborate with colleagues to share and discuss exemplary practices, interpret student performance data, and design assessments that promote twenty-first century skills.
Each issue of our school magazine “Foot Prints” is a milestone that marks our growth, unfolds our imaginations, and gives life to our thoughts and aspirations. It unleashes a wide spectrum of creative skills ranging from writing to editing and even in designing the magazine. I congratulate the entire editorial team for their hard work and dedication in making this dream come true.
Our mission is to continue to do what we have always done: develop this school and the students with integrity and values; also, to give our students the best opportunities and the best all-round education. Our vision is to produce conscientious, smart and confident citizens of India who will go out into the world and make us proud!
Let's pledge to work together to take our school to further heights of excellence. 'I believe that when we dream together, It is the beginning of a reality'

Dear Readers,
National Education Policy 2020 states: A good educational institution is one in which every student feels welcomed and cared for, where a safe and stimulating learning environment exists, where a wide range of learning experiences are offered, and where good physical infrastructure and appropriate resources conducive to learning are available to all students.
Education is the foundation for building responsible, confident, and compassionate individuals. At our Primary Section, we are committed to nurturing young minds through joyful, meaningful, and holistic learning experiences. In alignment with the vision of the National Education Policy 2020, we focus on developing creativity, critical thinking, communication, and life skills among our students. Our teaching-learning practices are designed to make learning engaging, child-centric, and competency-based. We strongly believe in value-based education that helps children grow into disciplined, respectful, and socially responsible citizens. Along with academic excellence, we encourage moral values, empathy, teamwork, and environmental consciousness in our students.
Our classrooms promote experiential learning and activity-based teaching methodologies where children learn by doing, exploring, observing, and participating actively. Through hands-on activities, projects, art integration, storytelling, games, and collaborative learning, we ensure that education becomes enjoyable and meaningful.
We also take pride in incorporating the richness of the Indian Knowledge System into our curriculum by introducing students to our culture, traditions, heritage, yoga, and sustainable practices. This helps children stay connected to their roots while preparing confidently for the future.
With the dedicated support of teachers and parents, we strive to create a safe, inspiring, and inclusive learning environment where every child is encouraged to discover their potential and shine brightly.
We strive to create an encouraging and inclusive environment that brings our students the pleasure in teaching learning process, a place where they are inspired to explore their potential and achieve their best in all aspects of school life.
Our journey towards developing bright minds will continue and we look forward to delivering a student centric, values – driven education to all our students.
