School timings, transport and a typical day at The Shri Ram Universal School, Sarabha Nagar
The short answer: At The Shri Ram Universal School, Sarabha Nagar, Ludhiana, school runs from 7:50 AM to 2:30 PM in summer and from 8:50 AM to 3:30 PM in winter. Our AC buses go wherever our children live, and every bus has GPS, CCTV, a driver, a conductor and a female attendant. The school office is open 7:30 AM to 5 PM, Monday to Friday, and till 3 PM on Saturday.
Those are the facts most parents ask for first. As Admissions Head, I also hear the question behind them: "What will my child's day actually feel like?" This post answers both.
School timings at The Shri Ram Universal School, Sarabha Nagar
We follow two timetables in the year, so that children are not out in the hottest part of a Punjab summer afternoon or the coldest part of a winter morning.
| What | Timing |
|---|---|
| School hours (summer) | 7:50 AM to 2:30 PM |
| School hours (winter) | 8:50 AM to 3:30 PM |
| School office | 7:30 AM to 5 PM, Monday to Friday |
| School office (Saturday) | Till 3 PM |
The office opens before school starts, so if you need to speak to us at drop-off, someone will be there. For admissions visits, the office hours above are the best time to come or call.
Where to drop off and park
We are in Block D, behind Main Market, Sarabha Nagar. Families come in through Gate No. 1, and there is parking just outside, so a quick drop-off or an unhurried admissions visit are both easy.
School transport: safe AC buses across Ludhiana
Many parents searching for a school bus in Ludhiana tell us their worry is not the distance but the ride itself. That is why our transport is built around the child, not just the route.
- AC buses that go wherever our children live in the city.
- GPS on every bus.
- CCTV on every bus.
- Three adults on board: a driver, a conductor and a female attendant on each bus.
The female attendant matters a great deal for our youngest children. A four year old getting on a bus for the first time needs a calm, familiar face, not just a seat belt.
How long is the bus ride?
It depends on where you live. From farther areas such as Model Town or Dugri, the ride is about 40 to 50 minutes. Families closer to Sarabha Nagar will have a shorter ride. For your exact pick-up and route, please speak to our transport desk through the admissions office, or read more on our transport page.
A typical day at The Shri Ram Universal School
When people talk about a holistic, nurturing school, it can sound vague. Here is what it means in practice for a child at The Shri Ram Universal School, Sarabha Nagar.
Small classes and many caring adults
A class has at most 30 children. Across each wing the ratio is about 1 adult to 10 children, because a class teacher works alongside subject specialists. Your child is known by name, and the class teacher knows how the day went for them.
Learning in English, with German from Grade 2
The Shri Ram Universal School is an English medium CBSE school (affiliation 1631479). From Grade 2, children also begin German, which builds an ear for a second world language early, while young minds pick up sounds easily.
Early Years: learning through play
For our little ones, the day is built around play, stories, songs and hands-on activities. You can read how we structure it on our Early Years page. From the 2027-28 session we are also starting Pre-Nursery.
Primary Years: concepts, curiosity and 21st century skills
From Grade 1, children work in our STEM and Digital Skill Labs alongside their classroom subjects. For us, 21st century skills means specific things: building and testing ideas, using technology with purpose, and explaining their thinking clearly. More on our Primary Years page.
Sports and clubs inside school hours
This is the part parents are often most pleased to hear. Clubs run during school hours and are included in the fees, so there is no rushing across town to evening classes. Sports on offer include:
- Swimming and skating
- Pickleball, badminton and basketball
- Football and cricket
- Judo and karate
- Indoor table tennis and chess
- Yoga
A child who finishes the school day having swum, played and learned comes home tired in the best way, with the evening free for family.
Where it leads
Steady daily habits add up. In 2025-26 our Grade X students achieved a 100% pass result, with a top score of 96.8%.
