The Child Education Society, the apex body of Bal Bharati Public Schools and
other institutions of higher education, was set up in the year 1944 during the
pre-independence era when the elders thought that Indian culture, heritage, tradition
and ethos must be preserved and fostered and in order to achieve these objectives,
it became obligatory for the Society to educate the young people. Thus, the Society
was registered under the Registration of Societies Act, 1860.
Today the affairs of the Society are managed by the Board of Management consisting
of eminent educationists and social workers and headed by Sh. K.K. Khullar, an
eminent educationist and a social worker as the President of the Society. Under his
dynamic leadership and with his team, the pace of expansion and development of
new schools has greatly quickened in the recent years going up from just one school
and one institution (NTTI) till 1984 to as many as 3 Institutions, 12 schools with 3
more to come up in the near future and 6 Project Schools in collaboration with the
Indian Railways and National Thermal Power Corporation (NTPC).
Bal Bharati Public Schools are comprehensive, co-educational English medium
schools. Hindi enjoys its pride of place as the National Language in its curriculum.
