A brief note

Why the school was founded

Children are the nation’s wealth. Dr. Radhakrishnan said that “the nation is being built in the classrooms”. Keeping this in view, Gandhi Matriculation School was established in June 1991 under the Mahathma Gandhiji Educational Trust.

The school provides a highly congenial environment and opportunities for the development of an integrated personality in every child. It is located in a pollution-free environment at Vikramam, just two kilometres from Madukkur, and its buildings and infrastructure are planned to meet the growing needs of its students.

The school lays emphasis on traditional values and culture, and aims at training young children for academic achievement and self-reliance.
