Established in 1972 by Dr. Mrs. H. Sen, TISVV aims at creating an environment where children develop their personality and pursue self learning. It is an English Medium Senior Secondary School.
Emblem
The Tagorean emblem represents three letters T I S. The central I is the leaping flame of the candle, signifying everlasting knowledge, enclosed by T which forms the arms and legs of the child who is never tired in his quest for this 'Vidya' or knowledge. Like the light of the candle, the child is continuously striving to reach for the stars.
" I am worthy " says the child. This is a positive self realisation and this belief guides the student on the path of true knowledge, and helps him/her to evolve as a self confident, multi-faceted human being.
Mission

Teaching methodology and harnessing of technology for the same are the topics being tackled intensively for the near future. To supplement the existing computer - aided learning programs, LCD projectors have been installed in few classrooms to provide interactive learning with a future vision to extend it to all the classrooms. The Science Park has been set up on the terrace of our school. The students are adept at handling the instruments which explains the concept of light and sound. They visit the park regularly to enhance their learning. The aim is to provide "100 % education" and increase in the existing high percentage of students getting admission in top professional colleges and universities all over the country as well as the world.
Social responsibility has always occupied a top spot, with children from orphanages, NGOs, and the visually impaired, getting free mainstream education. Reasonable fee structure over the years has ensured a wide spread social representation in the parental clientele.
