At ABWA, leadership goes beyond direction—it’s about shaping the future. With a steadfast commitment to academic excellence, emotional well-being, and holistic development, our leadership team ensures that every student is prepared to thrive in an ever-changing world.
At ABWA, we strive to create a space where students not only learn but truly discover who they are, where education is a journey of exploration, where intellect is honed, character is nurtured, and curiosity is awakened. Our students engage deeply with academics while being inspired to understand the world through immersive, cross-cultural experiences. By cultivating emotional resilience and critical thinking, we empower them to grow into compassionate, capable leaders. As they step into the future, they do so with confidence and purpose.

Aditya Birla Education Trust
A school is a world in miniature where we get life lessons as we traverse the journey of informational and transformational learning. Warmth, joy, cheer and fun, it is a safe place where every child feels emotionally settled; challenge and opportunity for children to carve a niche for themselves, be it in academics or the co-curriculars. This builds confidence and resilience, strength and compassion. That is the ethos we have created at ABWA.
ABWA's mission - to nurture every child's innate potential - becomes a lived reality when she fosters curiosity and sensitivity.
Mrs. Radhika Sinha
Director of Academics
Aditya Birla Education Trust
At ABWA, independent thinking is at the heart of our educational philosophy. Through inquiry-driven classrooms, research-based formative assessments, and real-world challenges, students are encouraged to develop their own ideas and perspectives. Experiential learning plays a vital role in this journey — from engaging with thought-provoking guest speakers to participating in internal initiatives such as the World Scholars Cup and ABWA Infinity, our flagship mathematics competition. These experiences not only sharpen academic skills but also foster the ability to think critically. As Socrates aptly put it, “Education is the kindling of a flame, not the filling of a vessel.”
