Nanikram Menghraj Trust Academy is a co-educational institution that has 900 students from diverse backgrounds, an English Medium High School, founded in January 1970 by Nanikram Menghraj Trust of Bombay. The aim is not only to provide academic education but also to carefully develop the student’s all-round personality.
The Academy caters to the Pre-Primary, Primary and Secondary Sections. The Primary Section is recognised by the Education Department of the Greater Bombay Municipal Corporation, while the Secondary Section is recognised by the Education Department, Government of Maharashtra. Hence, it prepares students for the S.S.C. examination of Maharashtra State.
Admission to the Academy is open to all irrespective of caste and creed. In order to promote national integration, special efforts are made to develop a spirit of mutual understanding, tolerance, peace, respect and harmony among the students. To imbibe the spirit of National integration school organises Fancy dress competitions of attire of various states of India. To empower and encourage girl student’s academy celebrate Balika Divas.
N.M.T. Academy has a student’s council which consists of leadership roles i.e. Head Boy, Head Girl, Sports Captain, House captain, etc. which are created to give students leadership qualities. It encourages teamwork and promotes competitive spirit among students. The students are divided into 4 distinct houses: Red, Green, Blue and Yellow House.
The students are taught to take various responsibilities and to be accountable for the same. Swachh Bharat Drive details undertake responsibility to keep the school clean. We practice Swachh Bharat Day by making the students sweep and mop the school premises to teach them cleanliness and hygiene.
