Schools founded on the thinking of visionaries like Krishnamurthy are few like Shibumi and Rishi Valley (only two in Bangalore that I know of). Another visionary whose principles are closely followed is Sri Aurobindo. The school which is intent on its path is Mirambika School for New Age. This school in JP Nagar caught my attention for a totally different reason,which I have mentioned at the end.

Remark: The school has a set of guidebooks to induce the child to Sri Aurobindonean literature. The Integrated Education System they try to inculcate is a system devised by the Mother and is goverened by the soul. You can go through their website for full details on their philosophy and the kind of education they try to impart.
My interest in this school stemmed from the reason that they were using the XSEED method of education. This method of education was mentioned to me by a friend of mine whose kids are into XSEED methods and books.Xseed is an integrated curriculum for any syllabus like ICSE or CBSE. They give the tools like workbooks, activities are pre-planned for a subject making it easier for staff. It aims to inculcate the child with concepts rather than rash thought processes. Teachers are also trained for this methodology.
In a nut-shell, the method of using xseed in school has made it easier for the child to understand concepts, no rote learning. Every aspect of teaching a subject is well-planned.
Mirambika School is one of those few schools other than Mother Teresa Public School and Bangalore International School which use Xseed method. You can check out more on Xseed at http://www.xseed.in/. There is an Xseed Pre-School in Sarjapur Road as well (ITTINA Soupernika Apartment Complex, #3/2 Kaikondahalli, Sarjapur Main Road (Nr. Wipro Corporate Office).
