About Us

A wise person once described a school as a building that has four walls…with tomorrow inside. The focus of education at The Brigade School @ J. P. Nagar embodies this idea—by giving its students the strong roots they need to soar successfully into the future.

A co-educational institution, affiliated to the CBSE Board, The Brigade School @ J. P. Nagar has over 1100 students, across Nursery to Standard 12 levels.

Located in J.P. Nagar, The Brigade School @ J. P. Nagar began its first academic year in 2004. Young in years and spirit, yet rich in academic experience, the school has already earned the reputation of being an institution of excellence. The results speak for themselves: all the batches that have graduated from Std 10 and Std 12 have achieved 100% first class results.

The school is managed by the Brigade Foundation.

Our Vision

• Each child is a unique individual who possesses inherent potential of different types. Our objective is to identify, tap and develop this potential. To do so, we have to ensure that the child not only learns well, but also learns happily and, in the process, develops into a confident, complete person. Our philosophy is realised through the personal attention we extend to each child and our encouragement of open lines of communication between students and faculty.
  
  
• Our students should have firm roots in our land, our culture, our language and our ethos. At the same time, we want our students to develop a world-view and become universal citizens who are aware of, and at ease with, other cultures, religions, viewpoints and lifestyles.
  
  
• Education involves far more than the acquisition of knowledge. The real achievement of education is teaching students to enjoy the process of learning and to apply all that they learn to real life situations.
  
  
• Cocurricular activities and a collaborative learning and working culture are as important as academics.
  
  
  
  
  
  

Our Logo

A household name wherever Kannada is read and spoken, Kupalli Venkatappa Puttappa (K.V. Puttappa, 1904-1994) is revered as one of the great Kannada poets of the 20th century. He has written over 70 books, including poetry, novels, essays and plays. Kuvempu believed in “manuja mata, vishva patha” (mankind's religion is the universal path of all people), a philosophy reflected in several of his poems and essays.
