Centre Point Group of Schools: Redefining Education in Nagpur

In a city celebrated for its academic tradition, the Centre Point Group of Schools has carved a distinctive niche by pioneering a child-centric, joyful, and future-ready model of education. With a legacy that spans over three decades, the group—comprising Centre Point School (CBSE) and Centre Point School International (Cambridge)—offers a rare combination of academic excellence, emotional intelligence, creativity, and life preparedness.

Centre Point School, with its campuses at Katol Road, Wardhaman Nagar, and Amravati Road Bypass, continues to be a benchmark in K–12 education. Its foundational philosophy of fostering the love for learning, has now evolved into a holistic ecosystem that places equal emphasis on academics, co-curricular development, and socio-emotional growth. What sets Centre Point School apart is its seamless integration of learning with world-class infrastructure: smart classrooms, subject labs, auditoriums, and vibrant sports facilities. Its strong focus on performing arts, visual expression, and student-led events helps cultivate well-rounded individuals.

Adding to the group’s diversity is Centre Point School International, which offers the globally respected Cambridge curriculum. With a leadership team and pedagogy distinct from its CBSE counterparts, Centre Point School International promotes inquiry-led, research-driven education tailored to global benchmarks—preparing students to thrive in international settings.

What truly makes the Centre Point Group of Schools exceptional is its bouquet of pioneering programmes designed to meet the needs of today’s learners. Some of the programmes are-

● CenAeroz, Nagpur’s only aeromodelling programme, introduces students to the principles of aeromodelling from as early as Grade 2.

● CenTinel, a Cyber Psychology & Counselling programme is a first-of-its-kind behavioural transformation programme for students in Grade 8 and above, addressing digital wellness, mobile addiction, and attention challenges in a connected world.

● CenSitive, a sex education programme, taught from Grade 5, makes conversations around puberty and adolescence both factual and educational, helping students navigate growing up with clarity and confidence.

For younger learners-

● CenPods—custom-designed, experiential learning zones for Grade 1—help ease the transition into formal education through purposeful play.

● The Artful Educator programme, developed in collaboration with theatre icon Sanjna Kapoor, redefines teacher training by integrating art, emotion, and empathy into pedagogy.

● Meanwhile, the Orion career counselling programme offers students individualised guidance, helping them gain admission into top Indian and global universities.

At the heart of Centre Point School’s consistent growth and innovation is Ms. Shilpee Ganguly, Director Principal and a widely respected leader in the education sector. With over 32 years at the institution—including key roles as Vice Principal, Principal, and now Director Principal—Ms. Ganguly’s contributions span from classroom teaching to large-scale policy implementation. She has served as a resource person for NEP, gender sensitivity, and active learning for CBSE and national boards, and has held key appointments including City Coordinator (CBSE, CTET), State Coordinator (NTA), and Vice Chairperson of the Nagpur Sahodaya Schools Complex.

Under the collective leadership of its experienced faculty and visionary administrators, the Centre Point Group of Schools continues to raise the bar for K–12 education—not just in Nagpur, but across India. It’s more than a school; it’s a thriving, evolving, and inclusive space where every learner is empowered to grow, lead, and flourish.
