Chinmaya Vidyalaya NTPC Unchahar is deeply rooted in the philosophy of Advaita Vedanta, which teaches the principles of universal oneness and self-realization. Guided by this timeless philosophy, the school imparts education based on the Chinmaya Vision Programme (CVP)—a value-based educational framework that forms the foundation of all academics and activities at the Vidyalaya.
The Chinmaya Vision Programme (CVP) was established in 1996 by the Chinmaya Mission to integrate the rich heritage of Indian culture and Vedantic wisdom with modern academics. It is a comprehensive initiative that combines the best of traditional values with the latest in technological and educational advancements. Designed to bring Swami Chinmayananda’s vision to life, the programme focuses on the holistic development of students, preparing them to be well-rounded individuals who positively contribute to society.
The CVP is structured around four core areas, each aimed at nurturing different aspects of a child’s growth:
Integrated Development: The programme focuses on the physical, mental, intellectual, and spiritual development of students. This ensures that they are physically fit, emotionally balanced, intellectually sharp, and spiritually aware. Through this approach, CVP aims to mold students into balanced individuals capable of facing the challenges of life with strength and wisdom.
Indian Culture: CVP emphasizes the importance of students understanding and appreciating their cultural roots. Students are exposed to India's vast literary, artistic, and scientific heritage. This deep connection to their Indian identity fosters a sense of pride and helps them develop a strong moral and ethical foundation.
Patriotism: The programme instills a deep sense of pride in being Indian, encouraging students to develop civic consciousness and contribute towards national unity. By fostering patriotism, CVP ensures that students grow into responsible citizens with a strong sense of duty toward their country.
Universal Outlook: CVP promotes the idea of “Vasudaiva Kudumbakam”, which means “One World, One Family.” This universal outlook helps students develop a global perspective, teaching them the importance of living in harmony with their environment and cultivating a mindset of inclusivity and understanding toward all cultures and communities.
The strength of the Chinmaya Vision Programme lies in its holistic approach, which involves not only students but also the entire school ecosystem—including school management, teachers, and parents. This ensures that the educational journey is inclusive and comprehensive, catering to every aspect of a student's development.
Through the Chinmaya Vision Programme, Chinmaya Vidyalaya NTPC Unchahar continues to produce students who are not just academically proficient but also spiritually grounded, culturally enriched, and socially responsible individuals ready to make a positive impact in the world.
