The objective behind setting up this dedicated facility is:

To encourage experiment-based teaching and learning of science.

To provide an opportunity for the school students where they can get first-hand experience in handling laboratory apparatus and performing various experiments on their own.

This can help students to develop skills to tackle any difficulty in understanding the concept and to cultivate interest in the subject which in turn could benefit them in their academics.
