True to our guiding philosophy of Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam - The World is One Family - Springdales School, Pusa Road nurtures a global outlook that transcends borders, cultures, and ideologies. We believe that education must cultivate a global mindset, empathy and a shared responsibility for a better world.
As a proud recipient of the PASCH (Schools: Partners for the Future) title conferred by the Goethe Institute, we are part of a prestigious global network that opens doors for our students to a host of international opportunities. This includes fully funded scholarships to Germany, intercultural workshops and participation in globally recognised educational initiatives supported by the German Embassy. These opportunities empower our students with not just language skills, but with global perspectives, collaboration, and leadership. Our international exchanges with South Africa, Germany, South Korea, Singapore, and Vietnam have deepened our commitment to peace, sustainability, and cultural appreciation. Our students regularly represent India on international platforms - be it through youth camps, academic exchanges, creative competitions, or international essay contests. At Springdales, global citizenship is not an added dimension - it is a lived experience woven into the fabric of our education. Through a wide range of international collaborations, language programs, cultural exchanges, and immersive global experiences, our students grow into socially responsible, open-minded individuals ready to contribute to a more peaceful and equitable world. Presented below are our diverse and far-reaching international initiatives - collaborative projects: |
