Aim of the Institution

The aim of the institution is to impart sound value based education by forming in the boys habits of piety, virtue, discipline and self-reliance during the years of their studies; thus enabling them to be dutiful, good and honest citizens of India.

The method of education followed in the school is the Preventive System taught and practised by Saint John Bosco (Don Bosco). It is based on Reason, Religion and Loving kindness. We seek to form the young, through education, into men of character, competence, conscience, compassion and commitment who will foster uprightness in public life.

Being a Christian Minority Institution, value education is a compulsory subject for all the students. Christian students are taught Catechism while all other students attend Moral Science classes which deal with moral principles, values and rules of conduct.
