New Delhi [India], January 17: SSLT Gujarat Senior Secondary School, located at Raj Niwas Marg, Civil Lines, has achieved a major milestone in its educational journey by formally announcing its transformation into a fully Smart School. With this initiative, the institution has become the first government-aided school in Delhi to install Interactive smart boards in all classrooms.
The inauguration ceremony was held in the presence of Dr. P. R. Jaishankar, Ex-Managing Director of IIFCL, who graced the occasion as the Chief Guest. The occasion was further elevated by the presence of Shri Vikas Kalia, Additional Director (Education), who attended as the Guest of Honour.
A commemorative booklet titled "Chalk to Click" was released during the event, capturing the school's rich legacy since its establishment in 1905 and documenting its remarkable transition from conventional chalk-and-board teaching to modern, technology-enabled education.
Representatives from Teachmint, the smart board provider, demonstrated the features of AI-enabled interactive smart boards, explaining how they will enhance classroom engagement, improve conceptual understanding, and support innovative teaching methods.
The Smart School project was funded entirely through donations. Donors personally visited the classrooms they had sponsored, inaugurated the installed smart boards, and interacted with students and teachers. As a gesture of appreciation, students and school family welcomed them with flowers, while donors shared motivational messages by signing and writing wishes directly on the smart boards.
Speaking on the occasion, Shri Rajkumar Rawal, Chairman of the school, said that SSLT Gujarat Senior Secondary School has always stood for academic excellence, cultural values, and holistic development. He added that while the institution remains deeply rooted in tradition, it has consistently evolved to meet the changing demands of modern education.
