Ahmedabad International School

Over in Bodakdev, right across from Rajpath Rowhouse, is where Ahmedabad International School is situated. We are tucked behind Kiran Motors, so it’s a bit of a specific turn to find the entrance if you aren’t familiar with the streets. Bodakdev is an area that has grown very fast, but our school has stayed a steady point for the families living nearby. The building is large enough to hold all our students, and we spend our time managing the daily flow of classes and lunch breaks. It’s a busy place with a lot of movement throughout the morning and afternoon. We don't really go for a corporate or overly polished feel; it’s more about the actual day-to-day work of education. You’ll find teachers sitting in the staff room talking about their plans and kids heading to the library or the sports ground. Being near the Rajpath area means there’s always something going on outside, but we stay focused on what’s happening in our own classrooms. We have a mix of staff, some who have been here since we opened and others who are newer to the team. The atmosphere is generally practical and a bit noisy. We have the usual school issues like a desk that wobbles or a printer that jams, but we just fix things and keep moving. It’s not about being the flashiest place in Ahmedabad. It’s about providing a space where students can actually sit down and learn.
