1969 was the year when the first primary school was born from the womb of VES and that was Swami Vivekanand Prathmik Shala. And our journey begins……
Our school which started with Hindi medium, considering the need of the time we switched to Semi English in the year 2010-11.Today, touching new heights, we have moved towards the English medium in the year 2021-22 keeping globalisation and digitalisation in mind. We can proudly say that we are the foundational stones of the primary school in Vivekanand Education Society.

There is no elevator to success, only stairs! – At Swami Vivekanand Prathamik Shala we believe in being the stairs to success for our students.
Our founder, Late Shree Hashu Advaniji established SVPS in June of 1969 in Sindhi Society, Chembur in a small garden with 29 students. As we grew, in June 1974 we laid the foundation for our pre-primary school, Swami Vivekanand Purva Prathamik Shala. In June 1996 our school shifted from Chembur to Kurla in Nehru Nagar, the journey from a small garden lead to the transformation into a big and fragrant garden that molds the future of our young minds. Presently our school has nearly 700 students from Jr. K.G. to IV standard.
In 2017, SVPS was graded an A grade by the National Programme on School Standards and Evaluation (NPSSE).
SVPS is a building made of four walls that holds many bright futures inside.
