Firmly rooted in the education policy ‘May all have life in its fullness’ of Fatima Convent Higher Secondary School (hereafter in this document as Fatima Convent School) the school serves daily to accomplish its mission ‘to provide an education of quality and relevance to all’ at Nagda. The school shares knowledge, realising that any ‘knowledge is for the service’ of humans. Following the great philosophy of Fatima Convent, the school provides a dynamic environment for academic, spiritual, psychological, and social growth. For over 50 (fifty) years, the school challenges students from all backgrounds and beliefs with a rigorous academic program that prepares them for their college studies and builds a foundation for life. From his first steps on campus, a student is challenged in the classrooms, in the interest clubs, in the arts and sports fields; and the service opportunity fields. These combined experiences and challenges, contribute to his/her academic, personal, psychological and spiritual growth, building him/her into a whole person with a solid foundation. Here in Fatima Convent, what we embark on is the belief that each person is unique, and created in God’s image with a variety of gifts and talents. We put great emphasis on developing and instilling reverence towards the dignity of humans and the holiness of all creation.
