Education - V. Ramakrishna Higher Secondary School

 

History

V.Ramakrishna School was founded by V. Ramakrishna I.C.S., Founder of The KCP Group in June 1967 at Tiruvottiyur. His vision was to provide education to bright children of lower income groups through this equal opportunity school. The institution was started as a Primary School with Telugu as the medium of instruction, with the motto "Thamasoma Jothirgamaya". (Lead us from the Darkness of Ignorance Unto the Light of Knowledge) With continued efforts from the Management and staff, the school up-graded to Middle School in September 1982 and High School in June 1991. The English Medium section was also started around this time. In June 2002 the school started offering Higher Secondary education. The main advantage of this school is that a child can learn three languages (Telugu, Tamil and Hindi) and can opt for Telugu or English medium education at the same campus.
