Research at California University shows that children who learn music develop a greater capacity for absorbing knowledge, and have better learning outcomes, in studies, co-curricular activities and sports.
To encourage music and dance, Puran Murti Global school has well trained and experienced music and dance teachers at all campuses (55 music teachers and 35 dance teachers). Children are imparted high quality training in classical music, and individual or group lessons in musical instruments such as violin, guitar, synthesizer etc; on a regular basis. In dance, they are taught the various classical dances like kathak and bharatnatyam, folk dance and various genres of western dance.
Children have been trained to participate in the Music Exams conducted by the Trinity College of Music, London since 2006. In 2007 Puran Murti Global School became a centre for conducting Exams on behalf of the Trinity College of Music, London. Our children have come out with flying colours. Sagar Gandhi topped in North India in Grade 2 in Electronic Keyboard, Amaan Khan successfully passed Grade IV in Guitar and Avnisha Verma Grade lin Guitar. In 2012, one of our teachers, Mr Pankaj Srivastava received a "Certificate of Excellence" in music teaching from the Trinity College of Music, London.
