The Riverside School, Ahmedabad
The Riverside School is located in Ahmedabad, Gujarat, India. It was established by Kiran Bir Sethi in 2001. With a capacity of 390 students (student to teacher ratio of 6:1) it is a small school on the banks of the Sabarmati River. The school has developed an in-house curriculum up to the 7th standard. Grades 8th – 12th follow the IGCSE curriculum. It is also a research center for school education. In the past 11 years, the school has experimented with the latest learning models and has established itself as a pioneer in the field of education.
==The Founder==
Kiran Bir Sethi, graduated from the National Institute of Design (NID) Ahmedabad after which she established her own design firm. Her interest in education began to form when she observed the kind of education her son was being provided. She noticed that the word ‘choice’ did not exist in his vocabulary. Every time he deviated from the textbook or tried to take charge of his own learning, his teachers would punish him. She also realized that the same was true of most students in India. The figures she discovered were: in India 200 million children go to school, only 18 million graduate college and over 90% of these leave college with NO significant professional skills.
Using her background as a designer, Kiran focussed on identifying the right problem before developing her solution. ! Today, poor student performance is often blamed on laziness and lack of interest in students or apathetic teachers. These are however, only symptoms of a much deeper problem – an uninspired and irrelevant pedagogy and curriculum. Kiran integrated her knowledge of the design thinking process into creating an educational experience that was embedded in common sense.
