ODM Soars to New Heights in EducationWorld India School Rankings!

 Bhubaneswar, Odisha — The ODM Educational group has secured prominent milestones as two of its schools have secured commendable positions in the EducationWorld India School Rankings 2024-25.  ODM Public School, Bhubaneswar, has secured 2nd position in Odisha and 10th in the nation for the co-ed day-cum-boarding schools category. In the meantime, ODM Global School ranked 5th among co-ed day schools in Odisha.

 

Expressing his pride in the school’s performance, Swoyan Satyendu, COO of ODM Educational Group, said, ‘This recognition is a testament to our expanding educational footprint and unwavering commitment to growth in educational excellence."  He added, "We consistently provide a comprehensive learning environment for our students that cherishes their academic prowess as well as their character and life skills."

 

The EducationWorld ranking is considered one of the most comprehensive school evaluations in India, and it draws insights from thousands of education stakeholders nationwide. The credibility of the rankings comes from its various evaluation parameters that consider various aspects of the school, such as academic recognition, faculty proficiency, leadership quality, sports education, and infrastructure.

 

Dr Satyabrata Minaketan, chairman of ODM Educational Group, highlighted the critical role of ongoing growth and development. He stressed that embracing a mindset of constant evolution is key to success in education and beyond. Further, he said, “We are thrilled with these rankings. However, we see them as a responsibility to innovate and enhance our educational offerings.” The leading educational group remains committed to its objective of preparing students for exams and life's challenges in an ever-evolving world, constantly adapting its methods to support the student’s growth.

 

Over the years, ODM Public School's consistent appearance in these rankings has solidified its reputation among the leading CBSE schools in eastern India. The school combines rigorous academics with a strong focus on extracurricular activities and personal development, using a 360-degree holistic approach with CPX Learning methodologies.

 

Among the newer entrants, ODM Global School has quickly made its mark in the day school category. Its fifth-place ranking in Odisha reflects the institution's rapid growth and adoption of modern educational practices.

 

The ODM Educational Group, founded in Bhubaneswar, has expanded significantly over the past decade. It now operates multiple schools across and beyond Odisha, with plans for further growth in the coming years.

 

ODM Public School's high national ranking is particularly noteworthy given the competitive nature of the co-ed day-cum-boarding school category. This segment often includes some of the country's most well-established and resource-rich schools. For ODM Global School, the state ranking represents a significant milestone in its shorter history. It highlights ODM’s impressive growth trajectory through innovative teaching and student-centric approaches.

 

The ODM Educational Group's success story is set against Odisha's rising prominence in education. The state has made concerted efforts to improve its educational infrastructure and outcomes, with private institutions like ODM playing a crucial role in this transformation. Their performance in these rankings boosts their profile and puts Odisha on the national education map.

ODM Hosts East India's Largest Career Fair; Connects Students With 66 Global Universities

 

Bhubaneswar, Odisha — The world is coming together in the era of global connectivity that is shaping the future of education. Keeping the necessity of exposure as the core motive, ODM Educational Group has taken a pioneering step as it organised East India’s largest University Career Fair at ODM Public School in Bhubaneswar.

The fair, a cornerstone of ODM's ambitious College Connect Program, brought together an impressive array of 66 universities from seven countries, creating a bridge for students to acquire educational opportunities. As students from across Odisha and neighbouring states flooded the venue, the air was thick with anticipation and the promise of new pathways to pursue diverse careers of student’s choice.

Dr. SatyabrataMinaketan, the visionary Chairman of ODM Educational Group, surveyed the bustling fair. "This isn't just a career fair; it’s our student's gateway to the world," he said. The chairman added, “Our goal is to equip our students with the knowledge and resources necessary to make well-informed decisions about their academic and professional futures."

Stalls adorned with flags and banners from India, France, the United States, Canada, Italy, Australia, and Switzerland created a colourful amalgam of educational diversity. Representatives from prestigious institutions like Bocconi University in Italy and Colorado State University in the USA mingled with their counterparts from Indian powerhouse universities such as Ashoka University and OP Jindal Global University.

Amidst the sea of eager faces, students clutched brochures from various universities. Elina Shah, a student of ODM Global School, gushed, "I never imagined I'd have the world at my fingertips like this. Talking to these university representatives and counsellors has surged my view about the vast range of career options in the best way possible!"

The fair wasn't just about glossy brochures and impressive statistics. It was a diligently curated event designed to address the needs of today's students who think globally. Panel discussions on topics ranging from the impact of artificial intelligence on future job markets to the growing importance of interdisciplinary studies captivated the audience.

Harriet Coutinho Representing the University of Connecticut -USA struck a chord with many when she spoke about the changing face of education.  She emphasised, ‘Education is not an isolated matter anymore. Neither should schools, colleges or universities. Thus, this is an amazing collaborative measure to prepare students for career and a lifetime of adaptation and learning."

ODM's innovative approach extended beyond the fair itself. The integration of BridgeU, a cutting-edge university and career guidance platform, showcased the group's commitment to supporting students in selecting the right university, whether in India or abroad. This platform streamlines the college application process, providing students with comprehensive tools and resources.

However, the most striking aspect of the fair was the human touch. ODM's foresight in stationing trained global Career Counselors across its campuses in Angul, Durgapur, Ranchi, Gurgram, and Bhubaneswar was evident in the personalised guidance offered to the students at every turn. The insights into global education trends and local contexts helped the students align their aspirations with realistic pathways.

Workshops on application procedures saw students furiously taking notes, while mock interview sessions had them straightening their backs and practising ideal gestures for interview sessions. The fair also addressed the practical concerns of studying abroad. Representatives fielded questions about visa processes, while university admission advisors discussed scholarship opportunities and funding options.

SwoyanSatyendu, COO of ODM Educational Group, observed the scene with satisfaction and shared his vision for the future.  He said, "In a world where borders are increasingly blurred, initiatives like this fair are not just valuable but vital. These career fairs serve as bridges, connecting local talent with global opportunities, and in doing so, they reshape the future of education."

The successful organisation of the University Career Fair by ODM Educational Group has helped the students carve a pathway for their ambitions. It had done more than just connect students with universities; it had expanded horizons, challenged preconceptions, and ignited a passion for global learning.
