Anant charitable trust, under whose aegis the Amatir was founded in 2002 by a retired electrical engineering professor, MR. B S Nehra, to improve the status of women in the fields of basic education, technical education, and higher education.
Anant established Amatir Kanya Gurukul, a residential and boarding school for girls, in the village of Bachgaon Gamri, Kurukshetra, Haryana, India, in May 2002, with 27 girls from adjacent villages in a three-room cottage that served as a school during the day and a dormitory after school hours.
Since then, the school has expanded significantly, now educating hundreds of girls in classes Pre-Nursery through 10+2 on a 16-acre campus with ever-improving infrastructure and amenities for its students and staff.
It aims to give families and communities that would otherwise be unable to access high-quality education an option, particularly in areas where the majority of pupils come from low-income families.
Amatir boarding schools focus on creating highly individualized, high-quality schools that will strive to foster engagement, innovation, creativity, storytelling, visualization, entrepreneurship, community-ship development, and performance improvement among females.
