ISKCON’s congregation has greatly expanded across the world over the past decade and grihastha devotees have been feeling a great need more than ever to educate their children in a devotional atmosphere while equipping them with
an internationally recognized academic qualification that can help them to live in any part of the world, practice and preach Krishna Consciousness. 
SMIS is the only International School of its kind in ISKCON. In the abode of Sri Mayapur which is spiritually surcharged with the mercy of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu, SMIS offers children of devotees, the unique advantage of nurturing their Krishna Consciousness abundantly while tending to their academic needs. We are a Cambridge International Examinations centre IN 456 offering IGCSE, AS and A level curriculum in the high school and UK government curriculum in the middle and primary school.

She holds postgraduate qualifications in Education from the University of Hertfordshire and Liverpool University,U.K. She started teaching at SMIS in 2009.
 
SMIS has both day scholars and boarders. For boarders SMIS offers a unique Krishna Conscious facility and a very well planned program to systematically infuse among the students, the philosophy and practice of Krishna Consciousness in a disciplined atmosphere. A large and serene tract of land near the goshala serves as the boarding facility for students. Called ‘Srila Prabhupada Ashram’ and headed by a very experienced devotee, Srila Prabhupada disciple HG Rama Vigrahah dasa, this facility is ideal to bring out the best in devotee children. Although situated in a large campus with a playground, kitchen and other amenities, currently the ashram has a capacity to admit only 40 students on a first come first serve basis. In future we plan to expand this capacity.
