Mount Carmel School, Gandhinagar is run by the Sisters of the Apostolic Carmel, a Congregation of Indian sisters founded in 1868, by Mother Veronica, a holy and dedicated woman, in Bayonne, France who was divinely inspired to reach out to girls especially through education.

ToIt was in 1970, the Centenary year of the Apostolic Carmel, that the Government of Gujarat invited Xavier’s and Mount Carmel to set up campus in the then newly established capital city of Gandhinagar so that the school could impart quality education to the children of the Government employees. In 1983 the joint establishment of St.Xavier’s and Mount Carmel High School separated to form two different missionary schools due to increasing number of students.

This School is recognized by the Department of Education, Gujarat State and caters to all castes and creeds. The course of studies is planned to lead up to the Secondary and Higher Secondary School Certificate Examination (Commerce and Science). It has parallel divisions with Gujarati and English as the medium of instruction.

Called to live in God’s presence and sharing in Christ’s mission to transform the world in love, we, the Sisters of the Apostolic Carmel, respond like Mary and our Foundress, Mother Veronica, by our lives of consecration.

Though the school is primarily meant to provide Catholic students with sound religious and moral education, other students are also admitted with due respect to their religious feelings and freedom of conscience. A course of religious instruction is given to Catholic students. Students of other faiths are taught Social and Human values during Value Education class.

Mount Carmel Primary and Higher Secondary School is run by the Nirmal Education Society of Ahmedabad, a body registered under the Societies’ Registration Act XXI of 1860 and having its office at Mount Carmel Convent, Navrangpura, Ahmedabad-380009.

It is a matter of great pleasure and pride that Mount Carmel High School, Gandhinagar has ushered into the 50th year of imparting value based education through formal school system and mark this landmark year with a series of great pompous festivities of a year long Golden Jubilee Celebrations.
