Hey there 👋
I'm Raj

For 30 years I have been building schools across India. 5 campuses, 10,000+ students, and one stubborn belief: a child who feels seen will outgrow anything you measure them by.

About Raj

I did not set out to build schools

I set out to fix one classroom. The first school came because the fixing kept spilling over into the next room, and then the next building.

Thirty years later there are five campuses and ten thousand students, and the question I ask on every campus visit has not changed. Would I be happy if this were my child's Tuesday?

Raj Mirani

“Every child walks in believing something about themselves. My job is to make sure the school does not prove them right when that belief is small.”

Build for the long run

A school is a thirty year promise. I have never opened one I was not prepared to still be running when the first batch has children of their own.

Teachers before buildings

Marble floors teach nobody. I would rather pay a great teacher properly than add another wing to the campus.

Judge us in ten years

Board results are the easy scoreboard. The real one is who these children become at thirty, and whether they are still curious.

Years of experience

The campuses

Five schools, one standard

Each campus has its own character. None of them compromise on what a child is owed.

Divine Bliss campus

Divine Bliss

The flagship. Everything we learned in thirty years is here.

Divine Values campus

Divine Values

Where character is the curriculum, not the assembly speech.

Divine Wisdom campus

Divine Wisdom

Our senior campus, built around independent thinking.

Divine Life campus

Divine Life

Sport, service and the arts sit alongside academics here.

Divine Buds campus

Divine Buds

Where it starts. Play, patience and a very gentle first year.

What I believe

Five things everychild is owed

Not posters on a wall. These are what we hire for, what we train for, and what we are willing to be judged on.

1

See

Know who the child already is before you try to shape them.

2

Guide

Values and responsibility, taught in the ordinary moments rather than the assembly hall.

3

Challenge

Give them work that is genuinely hard, then stay close while they struggle with it.

4

Support

Confidence grows where a child feels they belong. That comes first, not after.

5

Empower

Hand the decisions over, a little earlier than feels comfortable.

How I can help
?

Whether you are choosing a school or building one, here is where to start.

Find the right campus

Five schools, different strengths. Tell me about your child and I will point you to the one that fits.

Start here

See how we teach

Academics, sport, art and service in one timetable. Not a curriculum with activities bolted on the side.

See the day

Work with our teachers

Honest updates, real conversations, and a team that knows your child by name rather than roll number.

Meet the team

Bring me to your school

I run sessions for educators and parent groups on raising children who can think for themselves.

Let's connect

From our community

What parents actually say

What changed for us was not the marks. It was watching our daughter ask better questions at the dinner table, on her own, without being asked to.

Every teacher at Divine Values knows our son by name, not by roll number.

We toured five schools before this one. It was the only campus where the children looked like they wanted to be there.

Raj still visits classrooms himself. For a group this size, that tells you what gets prioritised.
