MISSION
The mission of Labour India Public School & Junior College is to pursue child-centred and activity-oriented education. A child is made confident, responsible and self reliant through individual attention, based on a harmonious blending of Gurukulam education and modern concepts. It is a research institute where special care is provided for students with learning disability.

We are conscious that the new millennium will accept only a child-centred education that can arouse the natural talents and capabilities of the learners. Scientific educational principles, psychological dimensions and philosophic ideas have to be integrated. So, in our institution, there is a fusion of the ancient Gurukulam and modern educational concepts. By following the system, we are confident of providing the children with many opportunities for effective learning and of enabling them to be leaders of the global village in the 21^st century and centuries to come.

The school is affiliated to Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) New Delhi. The syllabi followed is that of the CBSE. The text books used are those prepared by the National Council of Educational Research and Training (N.C.E.R.T). The medium of instruction is English. The academic year begins on middle of May and close on end of March every year.

The size of the class is an important factor in academic learning. Larger the class, lesser the attention. Pupils receive from their teachers. Further, larger size often prevents students from the teachers. In fact, the casement system not only discourages teacher-student interaction, it dampens the originality in students. A pupil teacher ratio in the neighbourhood of 20:1 is our goal.

A well-trained and accomplished teacher can make a dramatic difference in a child’s life. Well-qualified and dedicated teachers are the pillars of our strong educational system. It involves competency dedication and commitment. The secret of education lies in respecting the pupil.

Our teacher do not report to monologues, he encourages his pupils to think, to suggest and questions. We believe that a teacher who is attempting to teach without inspiring the pupil with a desire to learn is hammering on cold iron.
Working Hours :
School - 9.00 a.m. to 4.00 p.m.
Office - 9.00 a.m. to 5.00 p.m.
Thus a teacher here plays a multiple role - friend, philosopher, guide, educator, moral instructor, catalyst and so on.
