And, it is with a great sense of gratitude and optimism that we look ahead to the future as the new generation takes the lead, with a strong commitment to building on this culture of excellence.

The competence and commitment of teachers play a crucial role in shaping the future of any school, and NMAJS has been able to attract the best talents from across the world to provide an education in line with its vision. An educational institution’s mission is fully accomplished when the parent community wholeheartedly supports its philosophy and practices, and NMAJS is fortunate to have their unwavering support, always.

NMAJS envisions to evolve itself as a child-friendly institution, a happy school with a commitment to prepare the future generation with the skills and values that are required for the 21stcentury.
