Institution History

From 1957 to 1963, Mr. Subbaiah served as a teacher in several private educational institutions. Dissatisfied with prevailing educational practices, he resolved to establish an institution rooted in social responsibility and quality education.

In 1963, he founded Children Science School in Ongole. To make education more accessible and affordable for rural students, the school was shifted to Pernamitta Village in 1974. In 1987, the institution was renamed B.V. Subbaiah High School.

English Medium instruction was introduced from Classes V to X in 2005 to meet changing educational needs.

Educational Principles

A good society creates good individuals.

Education should combine democratic learning with social values.
