The One-Step Modern School, Greater Noida, is an English-medium, co-educational day school founded in 2007 under the aegis of the One-Step Educational Society. Strategically located on Knowledge Park-V, the eight-acre green campus is shielded from city noise yet lies within easy reach of Delhi-NCR business and residential hubs. The complex was purpose-built around the pedagogical principle that students learn best in inspiring, well-ventilated spaces; as a result every classroom, laboratory and studio opens onto landscaped courtyards that double as alfresco learning arenas.
Academically the school follows the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) curriculum from Pre-Nursery to Class XII. Sections are kept at an average strength of 28 pupils, allowing teachers to adopt the “Guided Mastery” model espoused in-house: pre-assessment, differentiated instruction and evidence-based feedback. Senior-secondary students choose from Science (Medical & Non-Medical), Commerce and Humanities streams; value-add courses such as Financial Literacy and Design Thinking run parallel to board classes. All students from Grade III sit two benchmark ability tests annually that feed into personalised learning plans.
The academic backbone is supported by STEAM infrastructure that is notably ahead of most NCR schools: a 90-seat Atal Tinkering Lab, 3-D printing studio, robotics field and a 72-workstation computer centre each with individual broadband login. The National Digital Library mirror server and an AI-integrated language lab enrich research and communication competences, while maths and science labs have haptic table tops for kinesthetic exploration of abstract concepts.
Sports and Co-scholastic Activities
Sports and co-scholastic excellence are pursued with equal seriousness. Facilities include an imported astro-turf FIFA-1 turf football field, half-Olympic swimming pool with automated water-quality control, two FIBA-standard indoor basketball courts and a 10-m air-rifle shooting range mentored by national-level coaches. Every child is assessed for motor aptitude at grade entry to receive customised sports pathways. Cultural hubs encompass a 550-seat auditorium (with E-controllable acoustics), separate art and pottery studios, a western-music wing with Steinway grand piano, and a broadcast studio where students script, shoot and edit their own channel “OSM TV”.
Pastoral care rests on a triangular support system—house mentor, counsellor and parent. The school employs two full-time clinical psychologists and runs the Mindfully Ours programme (weekly lessons plus one-to-one sessions) to build self-regulation and empathy. Leadership is fostered through thirteen student councils and the Community Outreach club that has built two rural learning centres adopted under Unnat Bharat Abhiyan.
Affiliated to CBSE with a nine-year consecutive 100 % Class X and XII board pass rate, the school achieved NABET (QCI) accreditation in 2022 and is rated A+++ by EducationWorld for “Academic Reputation,” “Sports Education” and “Co-curricular Breadth”.
