Sixty years and counting

In 1965 Shri T.I. John opened a school in Sector 7A. This is what it stands for, who runs it, and who leads it today.

Since 1965

St. John's School was founded in 1965 by Shri T.I. John, and is run by the Idicula Trust Society (Regd.). From the start the idea was simple: a school that gives children a sound education and a sound character, in equal measure.

The school stands on a four-acre campus in Sector 7A, Faridabad: red-brick buildings, wide lawns, trees and hedges, and enough open ground for assemblies, sport and the march-past. Families describe it as calm. We work hard to keep it that way.

Today St. John's is a CBSE school from Nursery to Class XII. What has not changed is the motto every child learns on the first day: learn to serve.

What we stand for

Vision

To nurture the potential in every child, and to bring up lifelong learners and global citizens with innovation and strong values, working hand in hand with parents and partners. Vision with action can build the future.

Mission

To instil honesty, compassion, secularism, tolerance and respect for others; to honour our country's heritage and take pride in it; and to contribute to humanity by working together.

Motto

Learn to serve.

What we aim for

Our objectives have been the same for decades. They shape how we teach, how we celebrate and how we treat each other.

  • Students who grow into mature, spiritually oriented young people.
  • A strong sense of national integration: one school, many states, languages and faiths.
  • Love of country, built through understanding rather than slogans.
  • Honesty, compassion and respect for others, practised every day.
  • Holistic development in an eco-friendly, pleasant campus.

From the Principal

Dear parents and students,

Every morning our gates open to children who will one day be doctors, teachers, engineers, artists and citizens. Our job is to help each of them find what they are good at, and to make sure they leave us kind as well as capable.

That is what our motto asks of all of us. We learn so that we can serve: our families, our country and the people around us. I invite you to visit, meet our teachers and see the school for yourself.
