Guru Nanak Fifth Centenary School Mussoorie (Boys)
Guru Nanak Fifth Centenary School Mussoorie (Girls)
Years ago S. Mehtab Singh felt that an essential growth to the community
could come only through quality education and also realizing, that it had to be
at an affordable cost and thus be available to all sections of society. He felt
that every man and woman should accept individual responsibility for the
survival of all. He set about bringing up Schools, where curriculums were
designed, to develop abilities and skills, (rather than memories) in children.
S. Mehtab Singh and Sardarni Jasbir Kaur laid emphasis on self-less
service, rendered in a spirit of total devotion to the Guru (in whose sacred
name the School is) and the True Lord. They enrolled the whole family and
who all adorn the annals of the 'Intellectual Heritage', with their dedicated
and pro-active beings.
S. Mehtab Singh was an M.A. Economics from the Forman Christian College
of Lahore and was selected for a fellowship at the London School of
Economics. He conceptualized and actualized the mission of setting up
quality meccas of education, and was the vision behind the setting up of
Public Schools in the Sikh community besides Public Schools in Delhi,
Hansi, Kota, Dehradun, etc. He shaped his vision with the spiritual leaders
of his time and the outcome of which is the School at Bathinda, the
Engineering College at Malout, the College of Nursing at Ludhiana and the
Home for the Aged at Delhi.
Sardarni Jasbir Kaur was a Graduate and Gyani from Rawalpindi and was a
woman with a focused purpose and a doer and much attached to the
traditions and richness of Sikh culture and the Guru's thoughts. She
inculcated a rich heritage of the Guru's thoughts in her family and which has
helped in continuing their vision.
Today, the Schools are chaired by S. Jaspal Singh who is ably assisted by
the family, as well as, other Members of the Governing Body. The academic
direction is well supported by Sardarni Amrit Kaur Sabhharwal, a qualified &
highly experienced academician.
FCS today devises new curriculums to teach concepts and not only subjects
and builds the curriculum around three core concepts of:
•Awareness, • Honesty • Responsibility.
It is endeavoured to learn how to get along, become tolerant, not to hurt
others and to see others as equal. FCS also endeavours to bring around the
quality of believing in yourself and walking in dignity. We endeavour to teach
what it means to be honest; we teach what it is to be responsible; we teach
what it means to be aware of other people's feelings and respectful of other
people's path. The Faculty is motivated to prepare a value-based curriculum
and the wealth is in the question and not in the answer. Counselling effort is
provided alongwith the parents. As a primary rule - in creating the child's
system of values and to encourage students from the earliest age, until the
end of formal education, to aspire such values and to learn how to use
them, apply them, function like them and yes, even to question them.

1. To impart a broad-based education to boys and girls, so as to enable
them, to become worthy and dynamic leaders; able to make a useful
contribution, to the changing conditions, of this technologically advancing
world.
2. To develop the physical, intellectual, cultural and spiritual aspects of child's
personality, so as to inculcate, sobering, practical and aesthetic sense, in
order that he/she may lead the life of a successful and worthy citizen.
3. Particular attention is paid to the ethical and moral training of the students,
in an endeavour, to develop in them a sense of initiative and responsibility; to
teach them the value of social service, self-discipline, self-reliance;
punctuality, cleanliness, loyalty, politeness, respect to seniors, courtesy to
servants, and the importance of games, physical fitness and
sportsmanship, while at work and play.
4. The School aims at producing disciplined students, educated in mind,
body and spirit and hence, best suited to serve their motherland and best
fitted, to lead others by their example.
5. To encourage learning by providing a supportive environment for all
religions, with Sikh values as central to the ethos of the school & its
teachings.
6. In providing an awareness to develop “Faith” & to cultivate the foundation of
