The objective of Nalanda Vidhya Mandir is to promote the total development of the individual so that they can become fully human, Nepali, and truly modern. This comprehensive development ensures that students are not only academically prepared but are also deeply committed to the divine spirit and their fellow human beings. It encourages students to actively engage with national development, embodying a sense of responsibility toward their country and the world at large.
Nalanda's approach to education aims at the transformation of the whole person, fostering growth in several key areas:
Social Development
The first objective is to produce “People for others.” This means students are taught to think beyond themselves, to help their peers, and to become active participants in their communities. By emphasizing social responsibility, we aim to create individuals who contribute to society with empathy and compassion.
Spiritual Development
Spiritually, the goal is to produce individuals who are both free and responsible. They should be free in their thinking and actions, but also responsible towards others and society. This balance helps them grow spiritually, understanding their place in the world and their duty to the greater good.
Intellectual Development
Intellectual growth is crucial at Nalanda. The focus is on developing the students' imaginative, affective, and creative dimensions. This is achieved through a process of context, experience, reflection, and action. The students are encouraged to explore new ideas, engage in critical thinking, and use their intellect to solve problems and innovate.
Personal Development
Personal development is the foundation of all other aspects of growth. Nalanda aims to foster all-round development in students, ensuring they grow into well-rounded individuals who are not only academically capable but also emotionally and socially mature. This holistic development prepares them to thrive in every aspect of their lives, from personal relationships to professional pursuits.
