The Virendra Swarup Educational Foundation, founded by the late Dr. Nagendra Swarup in 1989 as a tribute to his father, Dr. Virendra Swarup, is a testament to the educational legacy established by his visionary father. Dr. Nagendra Swarup, an equally eminent luminary, zealously continued the mission of providing high-quality education to the underprivileged in the less developed regions of Kanpur and its environs.
Virendra Swarup Educational Foundation’s journey began in 1990 when the inaugural branch of the Foundation was established in Kidwai Nagar, Kanpur. This initiative was particularly significant as, at that time, only one other school served the area. Consequently, it proved to be a boon for the children of Kidwai Nagar and nearby regions, eliminating the need for them to travel across the city for quality education and alleviating the associated financial burden.
After the inception of the flagship school in Kidwai Nagar, Dr. Nagendra Swarup successfully established 9 more schools, including a pre-primary and a primary school, in far flung areas of Kanpur, Unnao, and Farrukhabad. These institutions strategically targeted areas with a genuine demand for high-calibre educational facilities. Notably, the branch established in Panki in 2001 was founded with the same guiding principles of addressing the lack of reputable educational institutions in such locales.
Under Virendra Swarup Education Foundation, Virendra Swarup Institute of Computer Studies, was launched in 1998. It holds the distinction of being the inaugural self-financed institute in Kanpur dedicated to offering computer education through its MCA program. The institute has earned recognition for its commitment to quality education, as evidenced by its ISO 9001:2000 certification. Its MCA, MBA, BCA, and BBA programs are meticulously crafted to cultivate top-tier talent in the fields of Information Technology and Management.
Virendra Swarup Institute of Professional Studies, established in 2005, is dedicated to providing quality education to cultivate exceptional computer and management professionals who, in turn, will contribute to building a robust society in the future.
The Foundation is unwavering in its commitment to being acknowledged as a center for educational excellence, addressing the varied needs of the community. Its goal is to produce highly capable technocrats and managers equipped with extensive knowledge, analytical skills, and interpersonal abilities essential for addressing challenges on a global scale.
Since the inception of the institution in 1990, we at Dr. Virendra Swarup Education Centre, Kidwai Nagar, have made it our mission to help young impressionable minds acquire the ability to adapt and change for the better. In order to courageously face the uncertainties of life we offer an environment conducive to their growth.
Our aim is to help students develop into responsible, happy and wise human beings who can use their knowledge and skills effectively. Instead of leading a self-centred existence, we involve them in serving the less fortunate so that they develop into compassionate, discerning individuals who while being competitive never lose sight of how there is no true growth unless the world they live in becomes a better place.
We are determined to help precious young lives find a purpose to their existence and contribute to the wellbeing of society.
Our vision at Dr. Virendra Swarup Education Centre, Kidwai Nagar, is to develop well- rounded and thoughtful students prepared to cope with a changing modern and globalised world. We aspire to educate our children in the richness of their past, the diversity of their present and possibilities of their future.
In our envisioned community all children feel loved, respected and encouraged to develop to their fullest potential. We strive to prepare our children to become life-long learners and responsible citizens ready to meet the challenges of the future and to prepare our students to become lifelong learners and responsible citizens ready to meet the challenges of the future.
The goal is to create relevant learning opportunities for students both inside and outside the classroom that helps develop knowledge, critical thinking skills and character necessary to succeed in a technologically advanced world.
Our motto – ‘He that seeketh findeth’ reflects our vision to ignite curious minds – to prepare and motivate students for a rapidly changing world by instilling in them critical thinking skills and a global perspective.
