Since 23 January 2006

Twenty years of quality education within reach

Chanda South End Model School opened on 23 January 2006 on NH-2, Chanda, Asansol, as a co-educational English-medium school built to serve its community. Our founder, Shri P. Maji, set up the school inspired by his father, with one clear purpose: that every family in the area could reach an English-medium school where quality is never compromised, at a fee they can afford.
That purpose still guides us. SEMS is now affiliated to the Central Board of Secondary Education, New Delhi, up to the Senior Secondary level (Affiliation No. 2430245), and teaches children from Nursery to Grade XII across Science, Commerce and Humanities.
In 2026 we celebrate twenty years. Our students score above 90% in CBSE board examinations, win national karate medals, succeed in NEET and visit ISRO’s Mission Operations Complex in Bengaluru. Our aim remains to raise compassionate young people who will lead with heart in a changing world.

Words from Our Leaders

D. D. Nandi

“

I believe in living teaching. I always believe in ‘activity-based’ and ‘skill-based’ education.

D. D. Nandi

Chairman

“Education does not mean to teach men what we do not know, it means to behave as we do not behave.” Keeping in mind this oft-quoted philosophical dogma, I believe in living teaching. I always believe in ‘activity-based’ and ‘skill-based’ education. Even stress is given on co-curricular and extra curricular activities for physical, mental, cultural and spiritual growth of the students in a natural way.

Our mission is to empower every child to become a confident leader and a compassionate changemaker.

Our mission is to empower every child to become a confident leader and a compassionate changemaker. It is about shaping resilient minds ready to embrace the future and make a meaningful difference. As we welcome the 2027-28 session, we proudly affirm: ‘I am the future’, which is not just a promise, but a powerful commitment to our students and community.

“

To me, education is the only weapon with which a man can win the battle of life.

P. Karmakar

Executive Director

I feel proud to say that Chanda South End Model School started its endless journey in 2006 with a mission to kindle the light of education in our coal belt area. To me, education is the only weapon with which a man can win the battle of life. Still our school is steadily striving, holding this mission in its inner heart. I do believe that the blessing of God instills upon us drop by drop to achieve our goal, result of which C.B.S.E affiliation was granted in favour of our school, so that the light of knowledge will never be put out in any respect.
