Shree M P Patel Madhyamik Vidhyalay

Out here in Anklav, Anand, Shree M P Patel Madhyamik Vidhyalay is where many of the older kids spend their day. Being a Madhyamik school, we deal with the middle and high school years, which can be quite a handful. The building is solid, built to last, and it has seen a lot of students pass through over the decades. Anand is a place where people value hard work, and we try to mirror that in how we run the school. It’s nothing fancy. We have the blackboards, the wooden benches, and the usual piles of notebooks in the staff room. The teachers live nearby, so they are part of the community themselves. You’ll often see them chatting with parents at the market after school hours. The 388510 area is fairly quiet compared to the big cities, which is nice for studying. We don’t have a lot of high-tech gadgets, but we have enough to get the job done. The playground gets dusty in the summer, but the kids don't seem to mind when they are playing cricket or just sitting around. We handle the daily business of education one day at a time. Every year the exams come around and it gets a bit stressful, but that is just the cycle of school life. We’re just a local school doing what schools do for the families around Anklav, making sure the kids stay on track with their studies and their daily attendance.
