the Day-cum-Boarding School category, while ranking tenth nationwide among

announced at a formal ceremony held in New Delhi on October 15, 2025, where Dr.
Satyabrata Minaketan, Chairman of ODM Public School, and Mrs Indumati Ray,

World India School Rankings are among the most comprehensive evaluations of
educational institutions in the country, assessing schools on parameters such
as academic excellence, infrastructure quality, co-curricular achievements, and
overall educational outcomes.
ODM Public School's ascent to
these positions reflects years of systematic development in educational
delivery and institutional management. As a leading boarding
school in Bhubaneswar, the institution has consistently maintained high
academic standards while emphasising value-based education that prepares
students for both professional success and responsible citizenship. The
institution's comprehensive approach encompasses rigorous academic programs,
modern teaching methodologies, and extensive co-curricular opportunities that
contribute to holistic student development. The school's commitment to
combining traditional educational values with contemporary pedagogical
practices has positioned it as a premier boarding school in Bhubaneswar and a
notable presence on the national stage.
The recognition ceremony also
featured a significant individual honour, with Mr Swoyan Satyendu, Chief
Executive Officer of ODM Educational Group, receiving the Emerging Education
Leader of the Year 2025-26 award. This acknowledgement highlights the progressive
leadership and strategic vision that have driven the institution's growth and
excellence over the past few years. The dual recognition of both institutional
achievement and leadership excellence underscores ODM's comprehensive
contributions to the educational sector.
Responding to the achievement, Dr
Satyabrata Minaketan stated, "This recognition belongs to our entire ODM
family—our dedicated teachers who inspire excellence daily, our students who
strive for continuous improvement, and our parents who trust us with their
children's education. These rankings validate our commitment to providing
education that builds both competence and character."
Mrs Indumati Ray added, "We
view this achievement not as a destination but as an affirmation of our
educational philosophy. Our focus remains on creating an environment where
academic rigour meets ethical grounding, preparing students who will contribute
meaningfully to society."
Mr Swoyan Satyendu, speaking
about his individual recognition, remarked, "This honour motivates us to
further strengthen our educational programs and expand access to quality
education. We remain committed to innovation in teaching methods and infrastructure
development that meets the evolving needs of modern education."
The school's leadership
emphasised that the awards reflect collective effort across all levels of the
institution. The achievement is attributed to consistent faculty training,
investment in educational infrastructure, implementation of progressive curriculum
frameworks, and sustained engagement with students and parents in the
educational process.
