Mount Carmel Anand Niketan is one of Gujarat's respected CBSE schools rooted in the Carmelite tradition — offering an education that integrates academic excellence with deep values, character development, and a commitment to serving every child and community.

Mount Carmel Anand Niketan is part of the proud legacy of Carmelite educational institutions in India — schools renowned for their emphasis on character, compassion, academic rigour, and service to society, regardless of faith or background.

Message from the Leadership

Love, Truth & Service to All

"Every child is a gift — to be nurtured with love, guided with wisdom, and empowered to serve society with integrity." That belief is not a slogan at Mount Carmel — it is the daily reality of how we teach, lead, and care.

The Carmelite spirit asks us to look inward and outward simultaneously — to develop deeply and to give generously. Our students leave not just with qualifications but with a compass for life.

Love for every learner — unconditional care at the heart of our school culture.

Truth in all things — integrity, honesty, and ethical leadership as non-negotiables.

Service to community — education is the most powerful form of giving back.

Inclusion and dignity — every child, every background, every faith — welcome.
