Dev Samaj Modern School

Dev Samaj Modern School is located right in Sukhdev Vihar. If you know this part of Delhi, you know it’s tucked away a bit from the really loud main roads, which helps keep the noise down during lessons. The building itself has been here for years, and it shows its age in some spots, but it’s sturdy. We spend a lot of time just managing the daily flow of students coming in from nearby colonies. The morning starts with the sound of the gates opening and the security guards waving people in. It’s a neighborhood school, so you see a lot of the same faces every single day. We have the usual setup with desks, blackboards, and a small playground area where the kids spend their recess. Sometimes the monkeys from the nearby trees come onto the roof, so we have to watch out for that. The staff room is usually a bit cramped but we make it work with tea and snacks between periods. It gets pretty hot in Delhi, so we make sure the fans are always running. We don't really put on a show; we just focus on getting through the syllabus and making sure the exams go smoothly. It’s a simple operation here in 110025. You won't find anything overly flashy, just a group of people trying to keep a school running day after day.
