Our History
Springdales School was established in 1976, at the initiative of Late Sh. Jagmohan Lal Sanan and Smt. Raj Rani Sanan. The mission of the school was to provide a healthy and happy educational environment to children in Kanpur. It started as a nursery school located in Sargodha Colony, and soon expanded to a Senior Secondary School under their able guidance. In 2000, the school opened another branch in Kakadeo to add more space and facilities.
In the past decade, Mr. Sushil Sanan and Mrs. Neeta Sanan joined the school leadership and have been actively working on modernizing the school infrastructure and curriculum. Their mantra has been to adopt the best ideas and methods from the new age, while keeping the old values close to heart.
