Jnana Prabodhini Prashala

Jnana Prabodhini Prashala, is a high school located in Sadashiv Peth, Pune, India.

The students are selected through a two level entrance examination in which the Basic Mental Ability of a candidate is tested.

The Supreme Court of India rejected the ban on entrance examinations and has allowed the school to proceed the admissions process to continue in February 2014.

Earlier in 2013, The Pune Zilla Parishad had challenged the school's admission process of having its own screening of students.

However, apart from academic courses, the school gives special attention to self-expression arts such as drama, sculpture, painting, elocution and speech, music, which includes vocal as well as instrumental (tabla and harmonium) and dance.

These tasks include writing book reviews, presenting before a large unknown group, learning and demonstrating new arts such as "Bandhni", weaving, making sculptures, memorizing long texts in four different languages etc.

This development helps the student to pursue the greater academic and extra-academic demands in his/her higher classes.
