From the Chairman's Desk
The nation’s growth depends on the growth of its people. The people’s growth depends on their knowledge, skills, and their work ethic.
On behalf of Salt Lake Shiksha Niketan fraternity, I welcome you all to explore our website for getting acquainted with our school community. I greatly acknowledge the role of the teachers, administrators, parents, staff-members and students, who continually strive to help our institution scale greater heights of excellence.
Our vision is to use education as an effective tool to transform the society, bring about the qualitative change in the life of the people, by imparting proper education to the children and to hem them become ideal citizens of the country. Read More...
We believe that the prevailing economic and social maladies can be effectively addressed only when the light of education reaches every nook and corner and an enlightened society is built "where the knowledge is free ... and where words come out from the depth of truth". We aim to open the horizon of knowledge, help the latent faculties blossom forth and open the doors for wider understanding of life. We have been relentlessly working for re-enforcing the moral and ethical values among the students, tempering them with the core values of human existence and their inseparable relationship with the surrounding flora and fauna. We train our students to take part in extracurricular activities that, we believe, help them to learn how to take bigger responsibilities. Our students are always encouraged to participate in multitude of cultural activities in our school, in their neighbourhood, in State and national platforms so that their innate potentialities could find full fruition freely and spontaneously. Participation in sports and games also form an integral part of our school curricula. Our students bring laurels to our school every year through their participation in these events. We are proud of them.
Salt Lake Shiksha Niketan believes in educating the students at the minimum cost which can be easily borne by most of the parents from the underprivileged sections of the society. The school is committed to providing an all-encompassing and integrated education that fosters both academic and personal growth. We have nurtured a supportive and caregiving environment for the students who are always our priority. We make sure that the students imbibe in themselves the spirit of self-discipline, perseverance, adaptability, critical thinking, team work and develop effective communication skills.
As John Dewey rightly remarked "Education is a social process, education is growth, education is not a preparation for life. Education is life itself", we do strongly uphold that education is the strongest instrument of change to bring about the best evolution of the human civilization.
In Fond Memory of The Founder Chairman Of Salt Lake Shikhsa Niketan, The Late Shyam Sunder Beriwala
Born on January 21, 1947, Shri Shyam Sunder Beriwala, one of the most successful industrialists in this part of the country , a widely respected educationist , a great philanthropist and the founder Chairman of Salt Lake Shiksha Niketan, breathed his last on 24th October 2024 creating a void in the entire education fraternity. Shri Shyam Sunder Beriwala, after his graduation in Commerce with distinction from St. Xaviers College, Kolkata, engaged himself in the steel manufacturing industry and emerged with the passage of time as one of the pioneering steel makers in the country in the post independent India. He was instrumental in setting up the 1st Thermax TMT Steel plant in the private sector in West Bengal as well as the forerunner in producing steel from virgin raw materials and setting up integrated steel plant in the state.

It is only by dint of his diligence, perseverance, and honesty, he, like a skilful navigator in a stormy sea, could successfully steer Shyam Steel Industries Ltd. for years together, accelerated its growth and eventually transformed it into the position of strength with a yearly turnover of Rs. 7000 + crore. A great visionary and a steel maker with a golden heart, he held the position of the Emeritus Chairman of Shyam Steel Industries Ltd. at the time of his death.
His singal contributions in the Steel industry apart, Shri Shyam Sunder Beriwala’ s contributions to the field of education are widely recognized. He was particularly sensitive to the educational needs of the poor and marginalized sections of the society with equal emphasis on the need of girls’ education and mainstreaming the differently abled children to the normal education system by way of creating adequate facilities for them. Building moral character of the students, developing in them abiding faith in our traditional value system, fostering their scientific temperament, imbibing strong sense of patriotism and spirit of sacrifice constituted his educational vision. As a philanthropist, he worked relentlessly for the uplift of the socially and economically underprivileged sections of the people. His activities spread across multiple areas ranging from rural reconstruction, creation of drinking water facilities for rural population, providing basic health care facilities to the poor prioritizing women, arresting environmental degradation to addressing issues involving climate change.
A staunch nationalist as Shri Beriwala was, he had aligned his vision to the national goal of transforming India to a $ 7 trillion economy by 2070, making it atmanibhar and reaching the goals of Vikshit Bharat by 2047. He showed extraordinary courage of conviction and determination to work towards realizing these goals even in challenging health conditions which his peers and contemporaries looked at with awe and wonder. Among the many distinguished positions he had held in public life, his services as the Chairman, Confederation of Indian Steel Producers Association, President, West Bengal Rolling Mills Association, Chairman, 'Steel Re-Rolling Mills Association of India' , President, Merchants’ Chamber of Commerce & Industry, , Vice Chairman of 'Shri Bidhannagar Bhagawat Chaitnya Samaj', Founder and Trustee of 'Salt Lake Shiksha Niketan' , Secretary, 'Haryana Relief Society', Trustee, Beriwala Seva Trust, Trustee, Shyam Steel Foundation Trust , Member , Indian Institute of Public Administration, New Delhi , Member , Maharaja Agrasen Education Trust, Jhajhar, Haryana and Secretary of Haryana Vidya Mandir are noteworthy. Shri Beriwala was the recipient of numerous awards and honours for his outstanding contributions as an industrialist, a successful entrepreneur, a pioneer in innovations and a philanthropist. He left his footprint in every area he had trodden. Among the many awards he received, Bharat Vikash Award , Rashtriya Udyog Award , Udyog Ratan Award ,Lifetime Udyog Achievement Award, 2007, Haryana Udyogpati Ratna Samman, 2009, Dhatu Nayak Award from All India Induction Furnace Association and Lifetime Achievement Award, 2016 deserve special mention.
A devout Hindu and believer in the invincibility of the Almighty, he continued to pursue his lifelong mission for a just and equitable society where love, compassion and empathy reign supreme. To him, "bahujana hitaya, bahujana sukhaya" was not only the guiding principle of life but also an article of faith. Salt Lake Shiksha Niketan with its entire fraternity pays rich tributes to this pure soul, a pious man full of the milk of human kindness and reaffirm its commitment to carry forward the rich legacy he has left behind. We always cherish his memories and feel blessed to recall his contributions not only to the further growth of the institution he has built brick by brick but also take his ideas as the beacon light of its journey ahead. OM SHANTI.
From the Desk of the Principal
On behalf of all of us at Salt Lake Shiksha Niketan, I am delighted to welcome you to what will clearly be an exciting, meaningful and blessed journey in the lives of your children. Our mission is to create a warm, loving, secure environment that fosters creativity, curiosity, self-confidence and independence so that students may become models of peace and can succeed in an evolving world. We are committed to maintaining an environment that creates curiosity about learning, while engendering love, respect and understanding of self and others.
We want our children not just to learn, but we want them to think, to develop an understanding of self and the fast-changing world thereby creating global citizens. To achieve that, rather than teaching contents, the educators here aim at honing skills in- computational thinking, design thinking, critical thinking and problem solving, logical thinking, logical reasoning, collaborative learning, entrepreneurship skills and empathy – towards peers, all creatures and environment, to name a few.
We believe that there can be no higher calling than to deliver an outstanding education for your child.
I urge all of our parents to partner with our students, their teachers and administrators in helping to pave the path to what I believe are the endless new horizons of greater student achievement.
From the Desk of the Vice Principal
Greetings to one and all!
Salt Lake Shiksha Niketan is a cradle for development of high moral values, respect for diverse Indian culture and quality education. For us education is not about books but it is about freedom from all negativity and courage to bring positive changes in the world. Our pedagogy aims at developing soft skills amongst our students with sound knowledge of facts. Due to this, our school has been consistently producing excellent results in CBSE Board examinations over the years.
We recognise that true education requires active and positive participation of all stakeholders so we have initiated a paradigm shift in the way the stakeholder’s interact creating a free space for a child to develop out of the box thinking capabilities.
The day is not far when our students would be seen steering our nation towards the path of becoming a World Leader.
Our Achievements and Progress
You are what your deep, driving desire is, as your desire is, so is your will, as your will is, so is your deed, as your deed is, so is your destiny.
- Mr. S. S. Beriwala, Chairman
