Without education, the training of the human minds is incomplete.

Saffron Educational Trust had the same dream in their eyes  to start a  unique educational institution to blend the beauty of traditional cultural values and the latest in teaching aids and methodology to optimize learning, open young minds and empower them  to become global citizens, who stand tall and live with courage and conviction, carving a niche for themselves wherever they go. We feel gratified that all these years, the school has successfully prepared its children to enjoy and excel both in the inside and outside classroom where a  child  explores and develops every facet of himself / herself, enabling him/her to realize the  true potential. Shaping young minds into able individuals and responsible citizens of tomorrow is the prime task of meaningful schooling. All thanks to the trust as well as the advisory board Mr. Sandeep Malhotra, IT Advisor USA, Mr. Ivan Kreshner, Facilitator, South California School, USA & Mrs. Frances Pattra, Sydney, Australia for their most valuable& reliable guidance & interest for the noble cause, Education & for their hard toiling for the school’s upliftment.
