In the heart of Panchkula, Haryana, Satluj Public School has evolved into a beacon of progressive education, nurturing over 5,000 students across its expansive campuses in Sectors 4 and 2. Established in 1976 in Chandigarh by Late S. Pritam Singh Serai, the institution has flourished into one of North India’s most prestigious school groups. Today, Satluj Group of Schools encompasses 15 independent, autonomous institutions across Haryana, Punjab, Jammu & Kashmir, and Himachal Pradesh, collectively educating thousands of students.
At the helm of this esteemed group is Reekrit Serai, Managing Director of Satluj Group of Schools. A charismatic leader, Serai has seamlessly integrated tradition with innovation to craft a holistic, globally inspired education model. In this conversation, he delves into the significance of global exposure, the evolution of education, and the role of holistic development in shaping tomorrow’s leaders.
Q. Satluj Public School has always emphasized a global perspective. Why is global exposure so vital for students today?
In today’s interconnected world, global exposure is no longer optional—it’s essential. It equips students with adaptability, cultural empathy, and critical thinking skills, which are indispensable in a multicultural and rapidly evolving global landscape.
At Satluj, we’ve built international exchange programs with leading schools in the UK, USA, and Canada. These programs provide our students with immersive experiences in diverse cultures, fostering a global mindset and preparing them for life beyond borders.
Our Career Fest is a testament to this vision. It’s not merely a regional event; it’s a platform where world-class universities, policymakers, and thought leaders engage with our students. With a focus on “Jobs and Skills of the Future,” it ensures our students are not just keeping pace with global trends but are ready to lead the industries of tomorrow. Over 15,000 students from 500+ schools along with more than global and Indian 300 universities participated, making it one of India’s largest career fests for school students.
I’ve done my MBA in Educational Leadership from University College London (UK) and our management has done similar courses from the University of London and University of Lancaster, not to mention our faculty. So, we’re always mindful of global best practices in education.
