In today’s time, twenty-first-century, men and women have equal opportunities. The barriers of gender superiority are slowly breaking down and women are able to bring equal diversity and talent to the table. The parents have also unshackled themselves from the social stigma of giving priority to educating boys than girls and prefer to educate their daughters in the best possible girls’ boarding schools in India.
Choosing the right boarding school for your daughter’s future is one of the thoughtful decisions you will have to make. Boarding schools provide a safe, nurturing environment, where children can focus on their studies and personal development. Students are given the golden opportunity to develop themselves and build true leadership skills by participating in various extracurricular activities. The benefits of joining a boarding school extend far beyond academics.
There has been a lot of debates on the advantages & disadvantages of a co-educational Boarding with an all Girls Boarding School. An All Girls Boarding school can provide girls with an environment where they feel safe, supported, and free from distractions. Girls in these environments often report feeling more confident in their abilities, than those who attend co-ed schools.
We at Heritage Girls School believe in empowering women by providing them with an environment where they can grow into confident leaders who know their strengths and weaknesses. Our goal is to create a safe space where students can thrive academically, socially, and emotionally while still being encouraged enough to develop to their full potential. This means, we offer small class size so that teachers can get to know each student at an individual level as well as provide room for overall development through co-curricular activities like our Student Council, debates, intra house competitions and many more.
Benefits of studying in a Girls Boarding School
1. An open-minded community– Very often we feel that a Boarding School environment gets too strict for their child to settle. But very little do we know that the environment that makes a good Boarding School surpasses all the doubts that a parent has. At HGS, students, irrespective of the place they belong to, are given room for growth. They are encouraged to go beyond their horizon. They study a variety of subjects along with getting involved in activities that suit their interests. We believe that a school that allows its students to express themselves by showing trust in them, makes confident leaders.
2. A safe and supportive environment– Safety is something that every school takes seriously, but that doesn’t have to come at the cost of freedom to grow. Instead, students are given respect and space to explore, receiving guidance wherever needed. While a strict environment is one that might enforce rules, a supportive environment is one that helps students to feel confident in their decisions, which is better for students in the long run as it fosters an atmosphere where students learn to think critically, communicate effectively, and discover their creativity in the process.
3. Increases Career Aspiration– A girls’ school will never limit or discourage a girl from reaching her goals. This type of culture helps them to develop the confidence that young women need before they enter the real world. With increased self-confidence, girls are more likely to pursue careers they are passionate about and excel in them in the long run. The environment fosters a zeal to believe that anything is possible for them as long as they work hard enough for it!
4. Prepares for Life after School– Boarding schools provide excellent education, but they also prepare students for life. Research has shown that boarding school students feel more prepared for college and university than their peers and are more likely to pursue advanced degrees like a Master’s or Ph.D. They’re also more likely to advance to prominent roles in their careers and communities.
We at HGS want every student to be as successful, once they step into the real world. We have students from different communities, backgrounds, and religions which helps us to inculcate the values of cultural diversity and togetherness in our students.
