Children gain enormous confidence and these are experiences of a lifetime. They recognise how despite our differences, we are one people, united in our diversity which makes us stronger. Such a stimulating environment lets children appreciate first-hand the similarities and celebrate the differences between people from all over the country and the world. Although these events are organized on a variety of subjects like Geography, History, English language, Computer Science, Science and Technology, and Sports, the central idea behind organizing all these events remains development of cultural understanding and promotion of peaceful co-existence and unity in young minds. Every CMS event starts with a prayer for peace in the world. With a view to promote the ideals of World Unity and World Peace across the globe, CMS organizes Peace Congresses in the form of international events. CMS, therefore, places great emphasis on children's all-round development, moral character building, inculcating a global outlook and providing international exposure. Their motto “Jai Jagat” - 'Hail the World', in contrast to the popular post-Independence greeting, 'Jai Hind' ('Hail India') at the time of school's inception - has been the school's greeting till date. The couple started CMS with a vision to inspire generations of children to become socially motivated and conscious citizens of India and the world. Founded in 1959 with 5 children on a borrowed capital of 300 Rupees by Dr Jagdish Gandhi and Dr Bharti Gandhi, CMS is affiliated with the Council for Indian School Certificate Examination (CISCE) whose students from Montessori to Class XII achieve some of the best exam results in India.
