MDL always wants to connect with the students and their parents. For this, we had a Mobile App. It helps in building connection between school and the parent, where all information acquired related to child’s fees, class activity, attendance, homework, etc. is all available on just a click. The Students App is a revolutionary mobile communication tool between a school, its students and their parents which helps keep the parents informed, happy and impressed.
MDL encourages collaboration and scaffolding between learners. Tomake connections between new concepts and existing ones through experiences. Experiential learning is basically the process of learning through experiences, new topics are introduced to students through variety of activities. It encourages students to come out of their comfort zone and think out of the box. It makes classroom and students learn by different hands on activityrather than observing the demonstrative behaviour of a teacher.
E-learning is accorded top priority. This helps students schooling with us to be better equipped to meet the challenges of modern day living. Smart Boards have been installed in classes so that teachers can supplement the classroom teaching with audio visual display systems which help children learn much faster. Such learning through audio visual aids is better absorbed, since abstract concepts are given particular shapes & colours.
MDL has a Science Lab which is well-stocked with sufficient chemicals, specimens and instruments so that every student gets the opportunity to carry out the experiments individually with the teachers. Well-qualified and experienced teachers guide the students to explore the world of science through a meticulously planned schedule of practical classes. Moreover, the safety of every child while handling the chemicals and instruments is duly taken care off.
We have a well equipped medical room in MDL to provide necessary first aid to the students in time of emergency. An annual health check up including dental and eye check-up by specialists is a regular feature along with maintaining medical record of each and every child. Health advisory on prevention of various illnesses like swine flu, dengue, chicken pox, etc. is also a regular feature.
MDL cares for each and every child. We never compromise with the security of the students. Bearing in mind the security aspect, RFID cards, i.e. Radio Frequency Identification Cards are provided to each and every child that help us to track where the student is. RFID cards not only solve the problems but also effectively manage the student attendance.

We, at MDL always want that our students run with the fast-moving world with continuous improvement in technologies and new innovations and ensure that proper platform is provided to the students to enrich their learning. From past few years, MDL provides Robotics classes so that students can connect to several disciplines i.e. mechanical, electrical, electronic and programming skills. We provide equipment to students to enable them to explore and create some new innovations with their knowledge and creative minds. Robotics has become a catalyst for inspiring and motivating students to learn more about science and technology.
