VIRTUAL SCHOOL

Virtual Schools are the new face of modern day school.  NSN  focusses on holistic development in children – Horizontal Exposure and Vertical Expertise. This pandemic did not deter us from providing the best exposure to children in areas other than academics too. 

“Only when you have a vision for tomorrow, you will find power and purpose in your today’s work” – Mahatria.

True to this, NSN envisioned a smooth transition for its students and staff to the newly emerging trend of online teaching.  This new comfort zone has been an enriching and transformative experience for all.  NSN surpassed the expectations of the parents and the community by its seamless online teaching and learning, keeping its vision, ‘To take education beyond and build a new world.”
