Vikas Residential Public School

Vikas Residential Public School is located on North Sk Puri, along Vivekanand Marg near Boring Road in Patna. Being in a busy area like Boring Road means there is always something going on outside our gates. The school is a mix of classrooms and living spaces since some of the students stay here throughout the term. It’s a tall building with several floors, and the dormitory area is kept separate from where the lessons happen. We have a kitchen that stays busy preparing meals for the boarders, and you can usually smell whatever is cooking around noon. The classrooms are filled with the usual stuff like blackboards, chalk dust, and stacks of notebooks. We don’t have a massive playground, but there is enough room in the compound for the kids to get some air. It can get pretty hectic in the mornings when the day scholars arrive and mix with the ones who live here. The staff has their hands full keeping track of everyone, but we’ve got a system that works for us. We don’t use any high-tech gadgets, we just stick to teaching from the books and making sure the homework gets finished. The walls are painted a plain color and we have to scrub off the marks the kids leave every now and then. It’s a lived-in place that feels more like a home for many of the students. We just keep doing our thing day after day.
