About Sahodaya
Sahodaya means rising together
Sahodaya came into being in 1986 to build a synergy of ideas among schools of the CBSE family, aimed at excellence in education.

A Sahodaya School Complex is a group of neighbourhood schools that voluntarily come together to share innovative practice, and to support their teachers and students.
CBSE launched the Sahodaya movement to introduce nationwide programmes for educational renewal. Today Sahodaya clusters form an important link between the Board and its affiliated schools, and being part of one is a growing necessity.

Our guiding verse · Taittirīya Upanishad
सह नाववतु ।
सह नौ भुनक्तु ।
saha nāvavatu · saha nau bhunaktu
“May we be protected together. May we be nourished together.”
An ancient prayer that teacher and student recite together before learning begins. It is the spirit of Sahodaya: no school rises alone.
