Dr Jayshree Venkatraman is today one of the leading educationists of Pune in Maharashtra, the city deemed as the Oxford of the East.

Born in Vadodara, as the last of the four children to a pious couple Mr and Mrs Sivaramakrishnan, Jayshree was a pet to the family. She remained an above-average student during her school days and had the good fortune to an excellent exposure to performing arts.  She was adept at managing multiple tasks.

Along with her regular studies, she pursued learning Hindustani Classical Music from the Music College of MS University. She was also a Bal Vikas student of the Sri Satya Sai Seva Organization which trained students in understanding Hindu scriptures and oriented them towards adhering to Right Values. Dr Jayshree Venkatraman has a Master’s in English and Business Administration, a Bachelor’s in Science and Education, Diploma in Music and Law. She was recently conferred a doctorate for her contribution to the field of Education by Maryland State University, USA.

This year she is driving a serious campaign on Sustainability Development Goals.  As part of the campaign this year, over 2500 students and teachers of her school have started using Fountain pens replacing the ballpoint pens to control the landfill. Single-use plastic is banned in the school.

This year saw the release of the short web series- LIFE 2030 which she had scripted to reflect the expected impact of AI on our lives. Students of the school have acted in this series and the shooting was done in the school.

Four major resolutions she proposes to take for the year 2024:

1.       Educate at least 15000 students about their physiological and psychological safety. Apprise them against Substance Abuse, Social Media, Cybercrimes etc.

2.       Strongly strengthen the SDG Campaign and involve students as the Ambassadors of Change.

3.       She proposes to train a minimum of 100 students to repair leaking taps. A professional plumber shall initiate the training under her guidance. This shall be done to ensure that no taps in school or homes leak, thereby curbing the water wastage.

4.       Being a CBSE Master Trainer for Principals and Teachers, she wants to ensure that the dignity of the Teaching Profession is restored to its full by empowering the teachers.
