Edify World School

Edify World School is located on Ajmer Road in Jaipur. It’s a long road that heads out of the city, so we are away from the main hustle of the markets. The drive out here can be a bit dusty, especially when the wind picks up. We have a fairly big site with plenty of room for the kids to run. The building is painted in colors that you can see from a distance. Every morning, the staff meets up before the students arrive to talk about what needs to happen. We have a lot of ground to cover, literally. There are sports fields and different blocks for classes. It isn’t always perfect; sometimes the grass gets a bit dry in the summer or a door handle comes loose. We just deal with those things as they come up. Inside the office, the phone rings quite a bit with parents asking about the buses or the lunch menu. We have a canteen that smells like spices around noon. Most of the people working here have been around for a few years, so we’ve seen the school grow. We don't use a lot of big words to describe what we do. We just open the gates, teach the classes, and make sure everyone gets home safely at the end of the day. It’s a full-time job, and there’s always something to fix or a lesson to plan before the next morning comes.
