The Beginning - How SPV came into being

In the late 1950s a group of sensitive and visionary Gujaratis living in Delhi felt that they should establish an institution commemorating the memory of the great national leader and first deputy Prime Minister of independent India, Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel. What could be better than establishing a school in the national capital? But as the Sardar was a leader with a difference, the school too should be an institution with a difference. This was not an easy task.

The Gujaratis, who had come from their state and Mumbai, felt the need for a school which would keep alive the best of Gujarati culture and heritage by providing suitable environment for their children to imbibe in. At the same time these traditions would have to be combined with those of the new independent India. This was the era of idealism and people were beginning to think in terms of a nation rather than a mere state or region.
