The objectives of introducing the movement in KVS are:-

1. Development of spirit of adventure.

2. Imbibing problem solving attitude.

3. Nurturing the values of compassion.

4. Acquiring of an awareness of environment.

5. Development of values like secularism, honesty, truthfulness, self-reliance etc.

     It provides opportunities for inculcating in moral, social & democratic values & developing the spirit of co-operation by encouraging participants in various Scouts & Guides activities.
