Colvin Taluqdars’ College has a history of over 130 years. Consequently, generations after generations of students have expressed varied feelings about the way in which this school has influenced their lives. Colvin means different things to different people from different generations. As I take over the reins of the school, I find myself torn between the responsibility of systematically arranging, integrating and preserving the past traditions and recaliberating the existing processes and procedures to accommodate the scholastic and aspirational needs of the present and future generations.

For one, Colvin has no dearth of infrastructural resources. In fact, there is hardly a school in Lucknow that has half the facilities that Colvin offers. Yet, I must admit, from the little I have gathered, that there are quite a few areas in which a substantial amount of thought has to go in. Students who just need a school that is convenient and comfortable should be ready for some very demanding assignments and tasks. Teachers have to be prepared for a round of training and upgradation since the National Curriculum Framework has to be implemented in the best interests of education.
Education is what remains after one has forgotten everything he learned in school.
