Udgam & Core Values
UDGAM – The Rise Within
At IPGS, we believe every student carries a powerful beginning within waiting to rise, evolve, and make an impact. Udgam, meaning ‘origin’ or ‘rise,’ reflects our commitment to nurturing compassion, strengthen character, and inspire purpose. These core values guide our learners to grow with empathy, think with awareness, act with excellence, and lead with resilience.
We encourage learners to reflect on their strengths, values, and goals, fostering self-awareness. Every student is encouraged to discover strengths, build skills, and embrace innovation. Achievement is measured not only by outcomes but also by growth and grit.
CORE VALUES – WHAT WE STAND FOR
At Indraprastha Global School, values are not a poster on the wall, they are the framework behind every lesson, every interaction, and every decision a student makes. Each value connects to the next, coming together to shape confident, grounded, and future-ready individuals.
Empathy & Inclusion — Respect and Kindness
We nurture a culture where every student learns to see, hear, and value the people around them. Through daily interactions, collaborative learning, and guided reflection, students grow into individuals who lead with kindness and respect differences rather than fear them.
Global Outlook — Awareness & Sustainability
Our students are prepared not just for exams, but for the world. From environmental responsibility to cultural awareness, we build a mindset that looks beyond the classroom and beyond borders, encouraging students to think as global citizens with local roots.
Excellence & Skill — Personal Best and Innovation
We define excellence as consistent self-improvement, not comparison. Students are encouraged to chase their personal best, think originally, and apply their skills to real problems, building both academic strength and practical capability.
Purpose & Grit — Goal-Setting and Resilience
Every student is guided to set meaningful goals and, more importantly, to keep going when things get difficult. Purpose and grit are built through real challenges, structured mentoring, and a school culture that treats failure as feedback, not defeat.
Values & Confidence — Values That Live Beyond the Classroom
True character shows up outside the classroom, in choices, conversations, and conduct. We instil values that stay with a child for life, giving them the quiet confidence to do the right thing even when no one is watching.
"Together, these five values form the complete picture of an IPGS learner, one who is capable, compassionate, and ready for the world ahead."
