Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel Vidyalaya (SVPV), Mira Road has been recognized by the Mid-Day School Survey 2025 as one of the Top Emerging Schools in Mumbai (National Curriculum - CBSE), a remarkable acknowledgment of its legacy of quality education, innovation, and community trust.

This recognition marks yet another milestone in SVPV’s 42-year journey of nurturing minds with purpose, passion, and progress. Established in 1982 under the visionary leadership of Dr. Kiran Patel, the institution has continuously evolved with time — blending traditional values with modern educational practices that prepare students for tomorrow’s challenges.

The Mid-Day feature highlighted SVPV’s comprehensive approach to learning — integrating academics, arts, technology, and life skills through an environment of warmth, inclusivity, and engagement. The article emphasized the school’s commitment to future-ready, holistic education guided by its philosophy of “Learning with Joy and Purpose.”

Leadership and Vision
