The how, why, when, and where to learning lies in everyone’s subconscious mind. To educate, is not merely to enhance the intelligence of a person, but to nurture the intellect.

Mrs Krithika Kumar Quintal believes in a holistic education and the freedom for a child to learn in a conducive environment, while maintaining one’s identity. This belief led to the establishment of the Lady Andal School (PYP, MYP certified and DP Candidacy school). It is a re-emphasis of the vision of the Founders, To brighten the way for others, to serve with one's own hands, with one's whole heart and always WITH A SMILE. The new school brings back to mind what The Madras Seva Sadan has mastered over the years and that is "to evolve".
