First Saraswati Shishu Mandir

This was the dream which, in 1952 inspired some pure indian to take up education of children as a mission of their life. The people engaged in this noble task of nation building through proper education of younger generation, laid the foundation of the first school at Gorakhpur in a building rented at a monthly rent of five rupees. After due consideration, they named their school as Saraswati Shishu Mandir-Temple of the Goddess Saraswati dedicated to the children. Thanks to their zeal, dedication and hard work that such like schools began to be established at other places also.

Prior to the Gita school which was started at Kurukshetra in 1946. The foundation stone of this school was laid by Shri M.S.Golwalker- revered Shri Guru Ji. The number of such schools increased rapidly in Uttar Pradesh. A state level Shishu Shiksha Prabandh Samiti was formed in 1958 for their proper guidance and planned development. Good education & sound sanskars at the Saraswati Shishu Mandirs earned for them due recognition, honour and popularity in the society. They spread in the other states also. Consequently Within a few years many schools had been established in Delhi, Madhya Pradesh, Andhra Pradesh, Bihar & other states. People began to send their children to these schools in preference to Christian convent-schools and over so- called public schools. In Saraswati Shishu Mandirs the children could learn about their Hindu culture. State level committees were set-up in other states also as the number of schools began to increase there. Punjab and Chandigarh had a Sarvhitkari Shiksha Samiti while Haryana had Hindu Shiksha Samiti,The formation of all India body came in 1977 as a natural corollary of this process. Thus Vidya Bharati was established with its Registered office at Lucknow & functional headquarters in Delhi. All state level committees were affiliated to this Vidya Bharati Akhil Bharatiya Shiksha Sansthan.

At the end of school time, students sing Vande Mataram. In many schools, students of north east states steroid trenbolone are getting education free of cost. In this school all the students are taking lunch together with Teachers (Acharya) after a Bhojan Mantra. There are several ashrams run by the Saraswati Shishu Mandir for welfare of Tribes, where they get free education/ food etc.

Many schools are currently running in rural areas for the betterment of Rural India. All those schools are funded by other schools. Vidya Bharati is working with an aim of providing quality education and creation of patriotic student in society.
