About the School

District Bilaspur’s First
CBSE Day and Boarding School

Shiva International Residential School was founded to bring world-class, CBSE-affiliated residential education to Himachal Pradesh’s Bilaspur district — for the very first time. Backed by 18+ years of group educational legacy, SIRS is built for the next generation of confident, capable young Indians.

Our Story

Why We Started SIRS

For years, families in District Bilaspur had no choice. If they wanted quality residential schooling for their children, they had to send them hundreds of kilometres away — to Shimla, Chandigarh, or beyond. The Shiva Group of Institutions, with over 18 years and 7+ educational institutions in the district, saw this gap. SIRS was their answer.

Founded under the Shiva Educational Society and affiliated with CBSE, New Delhi, SIRS offers classes from Nursery to Class X. Children can attend as Day Scholars or as Boarding students — whatever works best for your family. The campus sits in the Himalayan foothills of Bilaspur, providing a safe, scenic, and structured environment for learning and growing.

“Our goal is simple — to give every child in Bilaspur access to the kind of education that was never available here before. Academic, physical, creative, and personal — we develop the whole child.”

— Mr. Rakesh Kumar, Principal, SIRS

Who is behind SIRS — how established is the school?
SIRS is backed by the Shiva Group of Institutions — an education group with 18+ years of experience and 7+ institutions across District Bilaspur. The school operates under the Shiva Educational Society. This is not a new venture; it is an extension of a deeply established regional education legacy.
My child lives in Bilaspur — can they attend as a day scholar?
Absolutely. SIRS is a day-cum-boarding school. Families based in Bilaspur and nearby areas can enrol their child as a Day Scholar. Only families from further away need to consider the boarding option. There is no requirement to board.
Can we visit the campus before making a decision?
Yes — and we strongly encourage it. Campus visits are available Monday to Saturday, 9 AM to 4 PM. Call +91 98050 92530 to schedule your visit. Our team will personally walk you through classrooms, dormitories, sports facilities, and everything else.
What is the motto and approach to education at SIRS?
Our motto is ‘Mind, Knowledge, Soul.’ We believe education must develop every dimension of a student — not just academics. Every child at SIRS is part of a School House (Falcons, Ospreys, Hawks, or Eagles), participates in sports, and has access to clubs including IIMUN Model United Nations. Character development is built into the school day, not treated as an afterthought.
