D.A.V. Public School, CDA, Cuttack, the very name conjures up the vision of an institution dedicated to realize Swami Dayananda’s ideal. Since its inception in 1990 it has now acquired tremendous growth with nearly 4859 students from LKG to Senior Secondary level distributed in 105 sections. Our workforce comprises of 162 teaching staff, 45 non-teaching members and 22 employees in transport facility system. The majestic structure of its building proudly stands erect on a land of 4 acres in Abhinav Bidanasi amidst halcyon surroundings, far from the madding crowd of the city.
In a short span of time it made a quantum leap and made a phenomenal progress. The school has become an institution to be reckoned with. It has not only carved a niche for itself but also enjoys great renown of its own. It is directly managed by the DAV College Trust and Management Society, New Delhi. The school is endorsed with infrastructure essential for an ideal learning environment. All the class rooms are spacious, airy, lighted and well ventilated. They are also fitted with close circuit cameras for the close monitoring of the class activities. It is an institution where students are not only getting quality education but an all round grooming of their mind, body and soul. Since the inception of the school, our students have been very actively participating in various curricular & co-curricular activities and winning laurels at Zonal, State and National levels.
Students are the integral threads of our social weave. The stronger our threads, the more vibrant and strong is our society. This is why we focus on sensitizing our students with the contemporarily human issues and imbibing in them a human approach and outlook. Our children time and again reach out to the under privileged brethren of the society on many occasions. One of them being "Joy of Giving Week" under which they visit many orphanages, arrange community lunches and identify areas where they need help, thus grooming them into more humane and sensitive citizens.
Trying to fulfill swami Dayananda’s vision of being rooted to Indian Culture, yet keeping one’s mind open to global thoughts && innovations, we ensure that our children keep in touch with certain Vedic practices like performing HAVANS. To satiate the inquisitive temperament of our students, Mathematics, Science & English seminars are conducted by the them. They are guided to prepare power point presentations. Their presentations are judged by a panel of judges who decide the best presentation. This activity has proved to be instrumental in arousing the Zeal, enthusiasm and creativity of our students. It helps them get rid of stage fear and infuse in them confidence and courage to communicate effectively. This helps them when they enter various technical institutions where such presentations are a part and parcel of the curriculum. A House System is followed in the school in a loose imitation of democratic hierarchy. Head Boys and Head Girls are the leaders of the Cabinet. This cabinet comprises of Captains, Vice – Captains & Prefects selected from various houses. Every child from Class-IV onwards belongs to any one of the four houses viz. RIG HOUSE, YAJUR HOUSE, SAMA HOUSE & ATHARVA HOUSE. It inculcates in the children a sense of discipline, responsibility & belongingness to ensure optimism environment. Various competitions are organized on inter house basis to keep alive the spirit of healthy competition. The dedicated faculties of DAV, CDA is committed to keep on serving for this noble cause of education today and tomorrow with utmost sensitivity & with a futuristic vision.
