Our Vision

Our Mission

A Message from the Secretary, SPEVC

Shri Vinayanad Kallainpur, Secretary, SPEVC

Love, Dedication and Compassion are the three pillars on which H. H. Shrimat Parijnanashram Swamiji III built the foundation of our school to rehabilitate, educate and elevate differently-abled children with mental, physical and sensory challenges, towards a path of self-reliance and self-confidence.

Parama Pujya Swamiji inculcated the desire in us to search for the ‘ability in the disability’ and this is the motto of our Centre since its inception. SPEVC, which started with 2 classrooms and 15 students, has now grown into a government accredited, 5-star school with 38 classrooms and around 300 students. The Centre provides free education, free transport, and free mid-day meals to its students.

We believe that education is the key to better life. All children are entitled to an effective education that enables them to achieve the best possible results in life, regardless of their challenges. At SPEVC, we implement effective ways of teaching children and their families to overcome barriers to learning. We strive to improve the quality of their lives. We believe that in doing so, we will enrich our community. The vision, supervision and blessings continue to be showered upon SPEVC by our beloved H.H. Shrimat Parijnanashram Swamiji III and H.H. Shrimat Sadyojat Shankarashram Swamiji.
