Education, For Holistic Growth and Development
C. V. Madhavi, Principal, DAV Public School, Pune

Humans are an ingenious species and are inherently creative. Starting from the early man, humans have travelled a long way as a result of their creativity, innovation and imagination.
Technological advancements in the education industry have transformed the way a student learns, evolves, grasps and grows. Improvement in education should not only be defined to enhance efficiency, but augment the overall quality of life within society.
Educationists are not just architects of the new generation, but are also responsible for building the personality of modern citizens. They have to motivate the students, boost their confidence and help in moulding a good character with values like empathy and sensitivity towards other human beings, the environment and the world.
Culture is an essential part of humans. It gives meaning and method to our existence.
Parents, society and teachers can together influence the children to grow in a holistic manner. For long, our society has paid attention to studies, sometimes stifling the creative urges of many of our young minds. Studying is important for students, but so is encouraging them to explore their potential in other areas. The two might be different but not altogether separate. Learning should be an integrated and an enriching experience for the mind, body and soul.
For students, developing positivity and balancing their mind is important. Success or failure need not shake them so much that they fall prey to it. They need to keep their fears aside, tap into their potential and grow in as many areas as possible. Having faith in the supreme power, carrying human values in your heart and doing good to the world is the only mantra for a happy life.
Let us not forget what Mahatma Gandhi has preached- "Literacy in itself is no education. Literacy is not the end of education, or even the beginning. By education, I mean an all-round drawing out of the best in the child and man- body, mind and spirit."

  • About Us

Times Newspaper in Education (Times NIE) is a novel program that helps students ‘Stay Ahead’ and aims at making ‘Learning Fun’. It introduces concepts that help individual growth and development beyond school curriculum.

A brainchild of The Times of India, the world’s leading English newspapers, Times NIE nurtures progress and innovation. Adapted from the international concept, Times Newspaper in Education program (Times NIE) was initiated in India in 1985.

Today we have over 3000 schools and over 9 lac students subscribing to the programme, spanning 16 cities viz. Delhi, Mumbai, Pune, Bangalore, Kolkata, Chennai, Hyderabad, Ahmedabad, Kochi, Lucknow, Coimbatore, Chandigarh, Dehradun, Vijayawada, Visakhapatnam, and Jaipur.

The Times of India Student edition, a customized student newspaper exclusively for the students, packs a powerful punch in terms of content that leads to a smarter and superior learning experience. The information is crafted such that it finds use in classroom discussions, thus making it relevant and current. It truly gives education a new dimension by fostering the simple habit of reading which in turn paves the way for a confident, informed and aware individual. A newspaper that inspires young minds and equips them to face challenges of today’s world, making way for global citizens.

Empowering students with new cutting-edge knowledge through various educative and informative activities is a commitment and tradition of Times NIE. The programme serves as a catalyst of education and interaction, as well as a window into the minds of the quintessential Indian youth. On a significant scale Times NIE comprises diverse interesting activities and events that boost the child’s passion for learning, while revealing hidden talent.

While you are aware that The Times of India is among the leading English Newspapers across the world, it has consummated its position as an everlasting winner. With several international awards and recognitions to its credit, The Times of India and Times NIE have validated an enduring tradition of setting the highest benchmarks in every respect. We have been awarded with the two most prestigious awards, Times NIE - World’s No.1 NIE program and The Times of India, Student Edition - World’s No.1 Newspaper for the youth in 2006 by the celebrated World Association of Newspapers (WAN). In 2008 we were honoured by the International Newspaper Marketing Association (INMA), yet another international recognition for ‘Youth Audience Development’. In 2013 we were again honoured by the celebrated World Association of Newspapers (WAN) as the ‘Times NIE - World’s Best Youth Engagement Program’.

Times NIE has grown remarkably over the last three and a half decades, touching millions of children across more than 16 Indian cities. Our absolute commitment towards the fledgling generation remains undiluted and our greatest strength lies in the school partnership and commitment.
