A Proud Moment for the Heritage Family

Heritage International School has been named the Best School of Aligarh at the School Excellence Awards 2026, presented under the aegis of Amar Ujala. The certificate was handed over by Prof. Dr Tariq Mansoor, former Vice Chancellor of Aligarh Muslim University, and received on behalf of the school by its Principal, Dr Muneesh Srivastava. For students, parents and teachers, it is a moment worth pausing over.

About the Awards

The School Excellence Awards 2026 were presented by Amar Ujala under the theme of celebrating schools and honouring visionary principals. That second phrase matters. Schools are often judged by results alone, but results come from leadership, steady routines and a team that shows up every day. An award that puts the principal at its centre recognises the person who sets that tone.

Who Received the Honour

Dr Muneesh Srivastava accepted the certificate as principal of Heritage International School. He did so, however, on behalf of everyone connected with the school, from the teachers who plan lessons late into the evening to the support staff who keep two campuses running smoothly, and from the students whose effort fills the corridors with energy.

The Philosophy Behind the School

Heritage International School is a CBSE-affiliated school in Aligarh, with campuses at Talanagri and Premier Nagar, teaching children from play group through class 12. Its tagline, Education To Erudition, describes the journey it hopes every child will make, from first learning to real depth of understanding. The school also states its belief plainly. At home the parent is a teacher, in school the teacher is a parent, and the child is the centre of the universe. Recognition of this kind suggests that the belief is being lived, not only written on a wall.

What This Recognition Means for Families

Choosing a school is one of the biggest decisions a family makes, and a reputation takes years to build. Public recognition from a respected media platform is one useful signal, alongside the things parents can see for themselves, such as how teachers speak to children, how safe the campus feels and how happy students look at pickup time. Families considering Heritage are always welcome to visit and judge by those everyday details.

Looking Ahead

An award is not an endpoint. It is a reminder of the standard the school has set for itself, and a promise to keep raising it. The Heritage team thanks Amar Ujala for the honour and Prof Dr Tariq Mansoor for presenting it, and it dedicates the recognition to every child who walks through its gates.
