How has your experience been at today’s event, and what value does such a platform bring?
Thank you so much. You invited us to this ArdorComm event, and it is a really wonderful platform for all school owners as well as university representatives. We came on a single platform that is purely for learning.
At our school, we are running and managing operations, but here all school owners, directors, and principals are present. We get new ideas and learn from others on how to tackle present challenges.
What are the key challenges when comparing schools in rural and urban areas?
If you talk about schools in rural areas, students are very proactive, teachers are also proactive, and management is also proactive.
But the main challenge is that the things we implement in Ahmedabad take around 2–3 years to reach nearby towns or surrounding areas. That is the gap.
They have the infrastructure and even AI-enabled campuses, but implementation takes time. However, we ensure that across Gujarat—whether in Ahmedabad or Bharuch—we follow the same pedagogy.
How do you decide on curriculum and academic patterns across different regions?
It varies from area to area. Even within Ahmedabad, in the west region we follow a different set of books, and in the east region, a different set.
Similarly, across Gujarat, for example in Nadiad, we first understand the local student needs and what parents expect. Based on that, we decide the curriculum and content to implement.
How important are digital tools like ERP and LMS in schools today?
ERP is a 10–15-year-old platform. It covers basic functions like fee generation, accounts, and attendance.
But now the demand is for LMS systems. LMS focuses on what you actually deliver to students—how parents can track performance, how students can learn better using technology, and how teachers can interact directly with students.
So LMS is essential for modern school campuses.
Are such digital systems implemented in rural schools as well?
Yes. Recently, we tied up with a Delhi-based company. We have implemented systems where every classroom has cameras, and AI generates reports on what the teacher is delivering.
From these AI reports, teachers can understand their performance and improve their teaching methods.
How do forums like this benefit the education community at large?
These forums definitely help. As school owners, we are usually surrounded by a limited group of people.
But here, people from across Gujarat—from different schools and universities—come together. We learn from each other about what they are implementing.
Such events provide ideas, and it is great that you are organizing a platform where everyone can come together, learn, and share.
What are your key takeaways from today’s event?
I met many good people who are implementing strong learning platforms in their schools. We learned from them, and we also shared our ideas.
It is a very good learning platform for all school owners.
