Our Mission

Pretoria High is a sister concern of Nopany Vidyalaya which was founded in January 1954 by the Nopany Education Trust to preserve and perpetuate the hallowed memory of Late Daulatramji Nopany. Set in the commercial hub of Kolkata, it continues today a tradition of 50 years in a well-balanced approach to education.

At Pretoria, young people find scope within their own cultural milieu to reflect on their lives and to develop not only in knowledge and skill but also in wisdom, which is the fruit of reflection on life and its lessons. As they grow towards human maturity they are enabled, with the support of the school and the grace of the Divine Spirit, to find meaning and purpose in their lives.

Education is imparted in a healthy and congenial atmosphere and due emphasis laid on character building and creativity. Students are provided ample opportunities to develop their personality through disciplined habits, sustained work, devotion to duty, honesty of purpose and spirit of cooperation. The family, as the primary educator, through its commitment to the values of the school, shares the responsibility for the students education.

Pretoria has efficient and experienced teachers who are committed to high academic standards. The school provides a rich diverse curriculum catering to the needs of each individual student. It strives for excellence in sports and culture, in social concern and aesthetic values, wherein students are encouraged to realize their full potential as human beings.
