Efforts Initiated or the Process of Transformation
The school was extremely over populated because area of the school premises is not sufficient to
accommodate 4200 students which is the result of miscalculated number of admissions in the school.
There is no area or land left for further construction of new rooms. There was no place left for even a
playground let alone a proper morning assembly.
There were only 32 classrooms for 4200 students and 90 percent of students did not have a classroom to
sit and the conditions were pathetic and unmanageable. The students even sat on stairs to study. There was
no place in the premises where student did not sit to study e.g. Corridor, stairs, and tanks. It looked like
an open market. There was not even place to walk inside the school. Teaching learning was impossible.
Also there was a pending court case against the school from a parent regarding lack of proper facilities,
poor conditions, and no studies as it was over populated.
Even teachers were frustrated in the school as even they could not do what they were getting paid for.
Nobody wanted to stay in the school. To add cherry on the cake the toilets were rendered useless as there
was too much strain on the toilets.
We devised a solution of dividing the school population into two units including teachers and other
employees. Then a separate building was arranged in the school of B-1 Yamuna Vihar. Buses were
arranged for transporting the students and teachers to the new building .Every morning all the students and
teachers report first in the Sonia Vihar Pushta ,after that the unit is transported to the separate building
where they are provided proper facilities and environment of a school.
