Core Values of an organisation are the guiding principles by which the organisation achieves its objectives and purpose. Bhartiya Shiksha Board’s actions and decision-making process are guided and governed by a set of core values, in consonance with its education philosophy. These core values provide a framework within which Bhartiya Shiksha Board undertakes all its activities.
In keeping with the ‘Vision’ and ‘Mission’ of Bhartiya Shiksha Board, its core values are eternal, all-pervasive, and global. Over-arching core values of the Bhartiya Shiksha Board are:
आ नो भद्रा: क्रतवो यन्तु विश्वत:| ‘Rigveda’
“Let noble thoughts come to us from all directions”.
In Bhartiya Shiksha Board, decision making process is guided by Gandhi’s talisman – a guiding principle or ‘test’ that Mahatma Gandhi used to determine the ethical implications of the actions and decisions according to which every decision or action must contribute to the well-being and interests of the most marginalized and vulnerable members of the society. – a culture of "May all beings be happy" (सर्वे भवन्तु सुखिनः)।
Bhartiya Shiksha Board constantly endeavours to inculcate among its workforce the core values of Compassion, Accountability, Healthy competition, personal growth and wellness, and Equality.
These core values lend life force, inspiration, and motivation to the members of the Bhartiya Shiksha Board family.
Creating a culture of collaboration and teamwork. The work ethic of the Bhartiya Shiksha Board is inspired by the Rigvedic thought:
“Let us move together, speak together, and let our minds be in agreement.”
Truthfulness, integrity, and accountability are the seminal core values without which no organisation can gain people’s faith and trust. Bhartiya Shiksha Board is honest and ethical in all its actions and ensures complete transparency in its dealings with its stakeholders.
Bhartiya Shiksha Board is an ‘innovation-driven’ organisation. It accords the highest value to innovation and creativity, which sustain the organisation as ‘Dynamic’ and ‘Vibrant’.
‘Seva’ is Bhartiya Shiksha Board’s principal core-value. The underlying spirit of all our actions is ‘Seva’ (service), which makes us different from other organisations. We at Bhartiya Shiksha Board work with a philanthropic goal.

सा विद्या या विमुक्तये। – (Education is that which liberates) is the anchoring core value of Bhartiya Shiksha Board. Bhartiya Shiksha Board does not define education as an instrument of spiritual salvation (मोक्ष) only, but also as the process of upliftment of one’s ‘self’. The objective is to create cosmic ‘human beings’ who are free from attachment (राग), Jealousy (द्वेष), false ego (मद), greed (मोह), Ignorance (अज्ञान) and arrogance (अहंकार) – cosmic human beings who see their ‘self’ (स्व) in every animate and inanimate being and everything in their ‘self’ thus achieving a level of consciousness that transcends death.
For us, ‘सा विद्या या विमुक्तये’ is the negation of Darwin’s theory, according to which only the fittest would survive in society and the rest would perish.
