History

The first Delhi Public School in Kanpur was established at Servodaya Nagar, in the year 1997. However, as the students of the Primary School grew older and their need of a holistic development expanded, the management felt the need to have bigger premises for the Senior School and thus DPS Azaad Nagar was set up as an institution on Mainawati Marg on a vast expanse of land. The founder Headmistress of DPS Servodaya Nagar, Mrs. Rachna Mohotra moved on to DPS Azaad Nagar as the Principal of the Senior School. DPS Servodaya Nagar thereafter continues to function as a feeder school for DPS Azaad Nagar under the supervision and guidance of its Headmistress, Anju Verma.[2][3][4]
