Gitanjali Public School, nestled in the tranquil outskirts of Sainthia, Birbhum, West Bengal, is a beacon of hope and progress. This senior secondary school, affiliated to the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE), was born out of the steadfast commitment of the Gitanjali Foundation to democratize quality education.

Despite its humble origins, Gitanjali Public School is a testimony to the fact that the pursuit of excellence is not bounded by financial constraints.

The school stands tall, equipped with modern educational facilities rarely seen in institutions supported by non-governmental organizations operating on limited financial capabilities.

This school is not just a building of bricks and mortar, but a home of dreams and aspirations, where each child is inspired to reach their full potential.

2. National Institute of Open Schooling

Under the aegis of Gitanjali Public School runs the National Institute of Open Schooling (NIOS), an innovative open schooling initiative backed by the Central government. This program aligns perfectly with the school's mission of making quality education accessible to all, regardless of their circumstances.

NIOS provides a flexible and learner-centric approach to education, offering a range of academic, vocational, and life-enrichment courses that cater to diverse learning needs. This scheme is especially beneficial for those who may not have been able to pursue formal education due to socio-economic, personal, or geographical constraints.

The NIOS platform at Gitanjali Public School fosters an inclusive learning environment, ensuring that each student, irrespective of their background or prior educational experiences, has the opportunity to learn at their own pace. The program embodies the ethos of democratizing education, reinforcing the belief that the right to quality education is universal and should be free from any barriers.

By aligning with the NSDC’s mission, the foundation is able to provide nationally recognized certification to its beneficiaries, thus enhancing their employability. Both the PBSSD and NSDC programs run by the Gitanjali Foundation symbolize the organization's commitment to foster socio-economic development by investing in the potential of the youth. By equipping them with relevant skills and knowledge, these programs contribute significantly to their personal and professional growth, ultimately leading to the progress of the community at large.
