Upholding Our Motto

Upholding its Motto - Vidya, Vinay, Veerta
The true essence of a school, we believe, is gauged by its ability to nurture its students as per the vision it embodies. YPS, Patiala has been successfully doing that for more than seven decades now- giving the right direction, the right education and the right values to its students.

The school's enlightening motto, 'Vidya, Vinay, Veerta' -Wisdom, Virtue, Valour characteristically speaks of the qualitative all-round education that the School provides to its boys and girls, with a belief that true education is a growth, not that of the body or the mind alone, but a blend of both in the true spirit of the term.

YPS, envisioned as a fully-boarding school at the time of its inception, is presently working towards its next big goal of having complete residentiality of a full boarding school. This is being done with the belief that such a step will benefit both the students and the legacy of YPS in multiple ways. The students shall remain constantly under the supervision and care of the school faculty and will be able to avail and make use of the ample facilities provided by the school to their maximum potential. To this end, the school has lately introduced many measures to improve the quality of boarding life in the campus.

What holds testament to the faith the parents have in the institution is the fact that YPS, Patiala has the distinction of now enrolling fourth generation students, showcasing the trust and loyalty of the alumni, who seek to give their children the same transformative education they received.

Expressing metaphorically, it may be said,

“At YPS, Patiala, a Yadavindrian is, and forever remains a learner. He is taught to learn and draw inspiration from all the good he sees around him. The inspiring lines of Pierre de Coubertinon on the school wall teach him to be a fighter, if not a winner always.

The grand old clock tower standing silently, but solemnly by the school stadium, inspires him to stand firm and tall,even in adversity. The school crest is a constant reminder to him to be ever virtuous inthought, valorous in deeds and humble at heart. 

He looks at the school flag every morning and his heart fills  with pride to look at the  three House colours -  the maroon  for  passion , the yellow  for dignity, prestige  and honour  and the sky blue is for him a symbol of peace, quietude and tranquillity . These are the tokens, the signs, the remembrances he shall carry forth into the world   …these are the values he shall grow up with and these are the virtues he shall cherish for the rest of his life.

YPS, Patiala has meaningfully shaped the lives of thousands. Many milestones have been achieved in all fields, but the school does not sit complacently on its laurels. Having celebrated its 75th Jubilee in February, 2023, Yadavindra Public School, Patiala, has proudly stepped into the last quarter for its centennial.
