Turning potential into leadership
Meru nurtures true leadership, emphasizing guidance over authority. Through the MCLAP program and classroom
activities, students’ leadership skills are honed. They organize inter-school events like Model United Nations

rigorous process, collaborates on school events and addresses student concerns. Leadership seminars like
“Meru Utthan”, connects school prefects with esteemed figures to enhance their leadership skills.
Research oriented activities
Learning is made fun through real-life scenarios in classrooms. Children are taught a variety
of out-of-school topics, after which they present their research findings, e-commerce,
online banking, mock budget sessions, presentation on company accounts, and also
their road to how they are analyzed through ratios. This helps students to face the real
world with confidence.
