Nestled on a 10-acre green campus in Sector 78, Noida Expressway, The Manthan School is a K-12 day-cum-boarding institution affiliated with both CBSE and Cambridge Assessment International Education. Established by the Ikshana Educational Society, it blends Indian roots with global pedagogies, delivering a curriculum that is as diverse as its 3,000-strong student body drawn from 15 nationalities. Academic rigour begins with the Early Years Programme, built on experiential Reggio Emilia practices, moves through skill-focused middle-school modules, and culminates in Grade XII with Science, Commerce and Humanities streams complemented by IGCSE and A-Level options.

The school’s signature “LESS” framework—Learning Ethically and Sustainably—sets daily practice in motion. Concepts are tackled through project-based learning cycles rooted in STEAM, design thinking and entrepreneurial incubation. Every student from Grade VI onwards participates in a yearly Innovation Studio where cross-grade teams convert community issues into working prototypes, mentored by resident IIT-IIM alumni and industry partners. Senior students may opt for the Advanced Capstone Research Diploma in collaboration with universities abroad, earning dual credit and international publication credentials.

A 1:10 teacher–student ratio ensures personalised attention. Faculty undergo 60 hours of certified professional development each year, covering neuroscience, differentiated instruction and digital pedagogy. Assessment is continuous and multi-modal: narrative rubrics replace marks in Foundational years, mixed-reality portfolios track competencies in middle school, and boards are combined with pathway-specific exit profiles that map readiness for higher apprenticeships, liberal arts degrees or national entrance exams.

Beyond classrooms, 60 laboratories include a futuristic MakeryLab with 3-bond metal printers, gene-editing suites and an optics chamber linked to the Indian Astronomical Observatory at Hanle. The iSports Village houses an Olympic-standard swimming pool, FIBA-level courts, a FIFA-sized turf and a residential climbing wall overseen by certified wilderness instructors. A fully equipped Performing Arts Centre features black-box theatres, Hindustani and Western music studios, and a grand auditorium for convergence showcases.

Pastoral care operates on the “One Child One Mentor” model where each learner from Grade III is paired with a designated adult across domains until graduation. Integration clinics for neurodiverse students, a 24×7 wellness centre staffed by counselors and life-skills programmes ensure emotional equity. Over 100 student-led clubs drive initiatives—from hydroponic farming to a TEDxYouth chapter—rooted in the UN Sustainable Development Goals.

Global engagement flows through semester exchange agreements with schools in Finland, Singapore and Canada, and an annual “Glocal Leaders’ Confluence” where alumni CEOs, bureaucrats and artists mentor cohorts on navigating future systems. The Manthan School thus graduates ethically grounded, internationally fluent citizens ready to architect tomorrow.
