Right Principles: Our Guiding Values Rooted in Vedic Culture
Welcome to DAV Public School, Dr. N.T.T.P.S., Vijayawada.
Education is not merely the acquisition of knowledge; it is the process of shaping character, nurturing values, and inspiring young minds to become responsible global citizens. At DAV Public School, we are committed to providing an educational environment where academic excellence is harmoniously blended with moral values, cultural heritage, scientific temperament, and social responsibility.
Inspired by the visionary ideals of Maharshi Dayanand Saraswati and guided by the noble mission of the D.A.V. College Managing Committee, our institution proudly carries forward a rich legacy of more than a century of educational excellence. The DAV movement has consistently championed the philosophy of integrating the timeless wisdom of the Vedas with modern scientific education, preparing students to meet the challenges of an ever-changing world while remaining firmly rooted in Indian culture and ethics.
We firmly believe that true education is the harmonious development of the Head, Heart, and Hand. While the head acquires knowledge and develops critical thinking, the heart cultivates compassion, integrity, and empathy, and the hand learns the dignity of labour, creativity, and service to society. This holistic approach enables every learner to grow into a confident, compassionate, and responsible individual.
At our school, every child is encouraged to pursue excellence not only in academics but also in sports, arts, leadership, innovation, environmental stewardship, and community service. We strive to create a vibrant learning environment where curiosity is nurtured, talents are celebrated, and every student is empowered to realise his or her fullest potential.

Vedic Values: The Light That Guides Us
The Vedas teach us that education is a journey towards self-realisation and righteous living. At DAV, we endeavour to instil enduring values that shape noble character and responsible leadership:
• Simple Living and High Thinking
• Faith in God and the Triumph of Truth
• Equality, Justice, and Universal Brotherhood
• Service to Humanity (Manav Seva Hi Madhav Seva)
• Environmental Responsibility and Sustainable Living
• Self-Reliance, Courage, Discipline, and Perseverance
• Respect for Diversity and Harmony Among All
These timeless principles prepare our students not merely for examinations, but for life itself.
Our Vision
Our vision is to nurture enlightened individuals who are academically accomplished, ethically grounded, emotionally resilient, spiritually awakened, and socially responsible. We aspire to develop future leaders who combine ancient wisdom with modern knowledge, uphold the highest standards of integrity, embrace innovation, and contribute meaningfully to the progress of the nation and the welfare of humanity.
At DAV Public School, learning is a lifelong journey, values are the foundation of success, and every child is inspired to dream, discover, and achieve. Together with our dedicated teachers, supportive parents, and enthusiastic students, we continue to build a vibrant learning community where knowledge is enriched by wisdom and success is measured by character.
Let us continue to uphold the noble ideals of the DAV movement and strive towards the timeless vision of "तमसो मा ज्योतिर्गमय" (Lead us from darkness to light), nurturing generations of compassionate, competent, and confident citizens who will shape a brighter tomorrow.
With warm regards,
