Sunbeam School Suncity, Varanasi

Promoted by the Varanasi-based Sunbeam Group of Educational Institutions (SGEI) — the fastest growing private schools chain in Uttar Pradesh, India’s most populous (215 million) state — Sunbeam School, Suncity (SSS, estb. 2012) is SGEI’s latest and most ambitious education venture. Sprawled over 30 acres, a mere 5 km from the heart of Varanasi, this CBSE-affiliated day-cum-boarding school is ranked #1 in Uttar Pradesh in the EducationWorld India School Rankings 2018-19 and offers globally-benchmarked academic, sports and performing arts education to 1,800 students including 800 girls. Since its first school was established in the holy city of Varanasi in 1972 by Dr. Amritlal and Deesh Ishrat Madhok, SGEI has promoted six CBSE-affiliated English-medium K-12 and 14 partner/associate schools with an aggregate enrolment of 24,000 students and 2,500 teachers in eastern UP. Over the past 46 years, SGEI has delivered high-quality English-medium education, knowledge and skills to over 100,000 students in the Hindi heartland state of UP, and its promoters have drawn up ambitious plans to co-promote 30 affordable schools in tier II and III cities under the associate model. SGEI Leader Deepak Madhok Promoter-chairman An alumnus of Benaras Hindu and Allahabad universities and former civic administrator of the Uttar Pradesh Public Service Commission, Madhok quit the civil service in 1977 to help his parents realise their mission of providing high-quality, English-medium education to the under-served children of Uttar Pradesh. Since then, Deepak and Bharti Madhok have transformed the Sunbeam Group of Educational Institutions which includes two women’s colleges and one free school with an aggregate enrolment of 24,000 students mentored by 2,500 teachers, into Uttar Pradesh’s fastest growing schools chain. Bharti Madhok Director An English literature postgraduate of Kurukshetra University, Haryana, Bharti has co-engineered the steady expansion of the SGEI chain of progressive primary-secondaries delivering internationally benchmarked holistic education. A former cricketer who represented Haryana state, Bharti was conferred the Rotary Excellence Award in 2004, International Woman of the Year Award in 2000 of the American Biographical Society, and Educationist of the Year Award of the Uttar Pradesh state government in 2015.
