About Public School Rudrapur Uttarakhand

Columbus Public School Rudrapur, founded by renowned social worker Late Sh. Bali Ram Khera Ji, run and managed by Columbus Shiksha Prasar Samiti, came into existence on 7th April 1997 with an objective to achieve qualitative improvement in education by providing a unique learning approach that draws the best from contemporary educational ideals.

A senior secondary school affiliated to the Central Board of Secondary Education, India; the school believes that a true, whole or meaningful education cannot merely be limited to the often narrow and linear schooling process of acquiring the knowledge and skills required to prepare one for life. We aim at preparing the students for attaining academic excellence and encouraging a free expression of their inborn talents coupled with their acquired skills in term of performances in various fields of activities that the school opens to them.

Providing our children with an education of such meaning and value however implies that we must rise to the challenge of designing for them a truly holistic and experiential learning environment imbued with the very same diversity, richness and authenticity of life. Keeping in line with child centred education, the teaching- learning activities are formulated pertaining to the status of an individual child and thus facilitating the attainment of the desired outcome.
