SCHOOL CAMPUS
The school is situated on the outskirts of Egra town (municipality and subdivisional town) but easily accessible to all. It is situated beside the main road (Egra Hospital- Kudi Dobandhi Road) and one can reach the school very easily by availing any kind of transport ( bus, trekker, auto rickshaw, toto rickshaw, etc.) without spending much time. The school has 150 decimal land ( front and back portion) amidst rural and serene ambience, far from the madding crowd. Other than a big playground, there are a number of outdoor playground equipments to make the children cherish and nourish their sweet childhood.
SCHOOL BUILDING
The school has spacious corridor and big class rooms ( each room measuring 600 square feet ) with good amenities and utilities. It has enough lighting and useful facilities like toilets, sinks, work areas, lockers, storage spaces, drinking water facilities, signage boards and so on. Each classroom is equipped with two air conditioning machines and four ceiling fans. As this is coastal area (thirty kilometres from The Bay of Bengal) and maximum time of the year has hot and humid weather, the children feel very uncomfortable even if all the fans move in full speed. And in that case when four ceiling fans move in full speed the children can't listen to the teachers properly. And hence, to make the classroom teaching learning calm & quiet and to ensure that all the words spoken by the teachers penetrate the children's mind the classrooms are kept comfortable and dehumidifed ( not chilled) with the help of air conditioning system.
FROM THE DESK OF DIRECTOR
I can clearly recollect my early childhood when I had to starve every now and then. It was a struggle for existence. I had to struggle hard to get a bite to eat. During that period when all other children were going to school to get their education I was fighting the battle of life. I gritted my teeth and made a promise to myself that I have to do. And then a time came when I realised that I have earned a huge amount of money. The hunger of stomach got satisfied but the hunger of mind remained unquenched. I had to wander about from one place to another in search of a job and I realised how people suffer owing to lack of good communication skill. It was not that they were uneducated but the fact was that they did not have fluency. I understood how important role English language plays in our society inspite of the fact that the British left our country before seventy five years. During this time I happened to meet Mr. Animesh Dash who owing to the lack of proper infrastructure of a school was in a crisis and the life of many children was in a fix. At this juncture, MODEL ENGLISH SCHOOL, Egra, was born.
FROM THE DESK OF MANAGING DIRECTOR
I had to wander about with my parents and move from one place to another to get a tidbit of food. I witnessed how people suffered only for lack of proper education. I came across many people who despite having huge amount of money led almost a crippled life. Education lets a blind man see, a lame man walk, a deaf and dumb man articulate words and a cripple climb mountain. Lack of education made me understand that I was, as if, a bird without wings. I dreamt a society where no one will remain unschooled . I am fortunate that I have been a part of this drive. Let the children get a good schooling with all modern technologies. This school is equipped with learned and trained teachers, state of the art features, ideal teacher- student ratio and so on. We are committed to the society that the children here will get a true English medium schooling.
Another important thing I want to mention here is that a teacher is now a second parent. Until and unless a teacher becomes a second parent and a positive attitude and relationship between the teacher and the taught is developed, overall teaching learning remains incomplete.
