City Montessori School is continuously progressing, exploring new vistas of knowledge and surging ahead undaunted, propelled by the divine inspiration and courage bestowed upon its Founder Manager Mr. Jagdish Gandhi and Founder Director Mrs. Bharti Gandhi.

The two have successfully perceived the global trend in education and have boldly incorporated the relevant principles thereby adding the magic touch of quality to the educational philosophy they propounded.

Mr Gandhi’s extreme resolve against his extreme difficulties along the way, has made CMS, a non-profit organization, and the world’s largest school recognized by the Guinness World Records. There are currently over 37,000 children in the school, which has also graduated tens of thousands of students over the last 50 years. It is also the only school in the world that organizes 18 (Guinness World Records mention at the time of entry 15) international events for its students.

The Guinness World Records also recognizes CMS as the first and only school in the world to receive the UNESCO Prize for Peace Education in the year 2002. In a press release from UNESCO headquarters, it is written: "CMS is not a school like any other. It is distinctive not only for its size ... or the quality of its teaching. Its students systematically score higher on exams than the national average. More than anything else it stands out because of its philosophy".
Under Mr Gandhi's leadership and inspiration, CMS has emerged as a forward looking school with special emphasis on practical education of the basic sciences.

CMS has developed an extensive and highly meaningful educational programme aimed at spiritually charging the children and thereby building the defenses of peace in their minds, because wars begin in the minds of men. The tools used to attain this objective include daily prayer assembly, All-Religion Prayers, World Peace Prayer Ceremony (WPPC), Peace Poles to inculcate awareness about oneness of humankind and common cultural roots.

The school strives to mould its students to be ideal world citizens committed to the credo – “Vasudhaiv Kutumbakam” . "The Earth is but One Country and mankind it’s Citizens."

At CMS, the ability to tap the hidden mine of spiritual treasures in a human being is guaranteed to spiral the institution to dizzying heights where all who come into contact with it will be rewarded & enriched. City Montessori School continues to surge ahead to conquer new horizons in its quest for excellence and in bringing about a world fraternity in times to come.
