M. S. Pokar High School Sets New Benchmarks in Modern Education with Experiential Learning and Launches Innovative Pre-School in Palghar

Saphale, Maharashtra – January 8, 2026: M. S. Pokar High School and Junior College, Saphale, is redefining modern education with its experiential, hands-on learning approach, nurturing not just academic excellence but leadership, creativity, and social responsibility among students. Under the visionary guidance of Sneha Virendra Surani, the school has emerged as a trailblazer in fostering holistic development for children.

Moving beyond traditional classroom instruction, M. S. Pokar High School integrates practical learning experiences such as role plays, competitions, student-led initiatives, public speaking platforms, and entrepreneurial projects. This model equips students with essential life skills, including communication, teamwork, problem-solving, and civic awareness, alongside academic achievement.

 Sneha Virendra Surani, Principal of M. S. Pokar High School, has played a pivotal role in transforming the institution’s educational philosophy. With a unique background outside conventional teaching, Surani combines academic rigorincluding a Doctorate, MBA, B.Com, B.Ed, and ongoing LLB with real-world insights. Recognized nationally, she was honored with the “Youngest Principal of the Year Award” in both 2021 and 2025. A sports enthusiast and former Mumbai Cricket Association representative, she also inspired students during the COVID-19 pandemic by setting a world record as a motivational speaker.

The school emphasizes experiential and community-based learning. Students participate in industrial visits, museum tours, hospital interactions, and initiatives in old-age homes. Social and cultural awareness is reinforced through activities like Ashtami Kanya Poojan, tree plantations, cleanliness campaigns, and charity drives. Festivals across religions are celebrated with inclusivity, reinforcing unity and mutual respect.

Events such as Annual Day, Sports Day, Parent-Student Sports meets, and Grandparents Day involve parents, alumni, and the local community, offering students platforms to showcase talent, build confidence, and foster a sense of ownership in their school. Supported by a dedicated, regularly trained faculty, M. S. Pokar High School ensures a nurturing environment where students feel safe, heard, and inspired.

Building on this legacy, M. S. Pokar is now expanding its footprint in early childhood education with the launch of “KIDS”, a pioneering preschool in Palghar. Offering Nursery, Junior K.G., and Senior K.G., KIDS combines health education, young entrepreneurship skills, Olympiad-style learning, and a dedicated indoor-outdoor playzone all under one roof.

The preschool’s curriculum emphasizes health awareness, teaching children hygiene, nutrition, exercise, and emotional well-being in a playful and age-appropriate manner. “Young Entrepreneur Skills” modules cultivate creativity, problem-solving, communication, and basic financial literacy through stories, role play, and classroom projects. Olympiad-based activities foster reasoning, structured thinking, and early confidence in academics from ages 3–7.

Physical development is integral to KIDS, with structured indoor and outdoor play activities designed to enhance fitness, motor skills, and overall well-being. By offering these facilities together in one campus, KIDS aims to provide a comprehensive early education experience without requiring multiple external classes.

Affordability remains a cornerstone of this initiative, ensuring advanced early education is accessible to middle and lower-middle-income families in Palghar. Surani’s vision is to create a nurturing, value-based environment that prepares children not just for Grade 1 but for a confident, healthy, and future-ready life.

With the launch of KIDS and the continued innovation at M. S. Pokar High School, the institution reinforces its commitment to shaping confident leaders, creative thinkers, and compassionate citizens prepared to thrive in the 21st century.
