Mahatma, as an idea that took shape in 1983, has been a pioneer in humanising education, where our learners own the knowledge and skills acquired, and call it to use. Our student-centred approach recognises each learner as a unique individual with unique qualities and needs. Hence, we firmly believe in consistently identifying and processing the requirements while creating accomplished individuals.
