2026: Brinda Ghosh

A teacher by choice—a choice that holds profound meaning. Throughout her remarkable 47-year career, Mrs Ghosh has consistently taken the challenging path, embracing the road less travelled, which speaks volumes about her character and commitment. She began her inspiring journey at Vikaasa in Madurai, one of South India’s most innovative schools. Mrs Ghosh then left her mark at prestigious institutions such as Welham Girls’ School and YPS Patiala, greatly enriching the educational landscape across the nation. As the visionary Founder Principal of two international schools, she not only built these institutions from the ground up but also fostered vibrant communities that nurture a lifelong love of reading and the joy of learning.
