The Art of Living Schools initiative focuses on providing free quality education to children from low socio-economic backgrounds in India, aiming to empower and bring joy to young learners. Operating in slum, tribal, and rural areas across 22 states, it has impacted over 84,689 children in 1,262 schools. Divided into Sri Sri Gnan Mandir Schools (SSGM) and Sri Sri Bal Vidya Kendra (SSBVK), these institutions offer primary and secondary education, emphasizing not only academic growth but also values-based nurturing and extracurricular activities. SSBVK caters to children aged 3-5, prioritizing moral and cultural education through a feeder format, gaining popularity among rural parents for its effectiveness in early childhood development.

The organisation believes in providing holistic facilities to students, essential for their well-being and motivation. Its schools offer accredited syllabi, ensuring students are well-prepared for mainstream education. Alongside academics, emphasis is placed on instilling values and holistic development through yoga and meditation. Free textbooks, uniforms, transportation, and access to well-equipped computer labs are provided, ensuring equal opportunities for all students to excel academically and connect with the broader world, fostering their intellectual, emotional, and spiritual growth.
