Parikrma's mission is to unleash the potential of under-served children by providing them with equal opportunities and making them valuable contributing members of society. To this end, education at Parikrma tends to go far beyond just academics and classroom learning. The environment is designed to stimulate critical thinking and children are encouraged to question rather than just accept. Extra-curriculars such as sports, art and drama flourish. The impact of this novel approach has been significant with standard school level metrics like attendance and drop-out rates off the charts. Alumni work in management-level positions at various Indian and multinational firms.
