History
The NSN Group of schools (Nedungayil Sankunni Narayanan) is managed by the NSN Education Committee (regd). The aim of the co-educational schools is to provide full, liberal and comprehensive education. Its object is to turn out young men and women with a keen sense of discipline, responsibility, initiative, self-reliance, integrity and loyalty. The N.S.N. Matriculation Higher Secondary School, Chromepet, had its origin as a Primary school which was started in 1968 by Smt.Lalitha Menon to perpetuate the memory of her beloved husband Late Sri N.S.N Menon. The school is managed by the NSN Education Committee registered under the Societies Registration Act 1975. It has since grown into a well established institution imparting education to around 1700 students in Chromepet
It may be mentioned with legitimate and pardonable pride, that this school is the first private school in Chromepet to attain the status of a Matriculation and Higher Secondary School. The creditable results at the Annual Board Examination, the good performance of our students at the various inter school competitions, both academic and general, their achievements in Sports, Scouting and Guides Movement, and Junior Red Cross activities have accentuated the good name established by the institution. We have the maximum number of Rashtrapathi (President’s Award) and Rajyapuraskar (Governor’s Award) Awardees in the Chengelpet District. The Scouts & Guides Movement in the school completed 25 years in 2009 & 2010 respectively. The Silver Jubilee celebration was held on 8th April 2010. The establishment of our school in this area has also contributed to a large extent in developing this backward area which has now developed into a small township.
The growth of this institution has stood the test of time in its initial stages when the inhabitants of this area were mostly lower middle class people and today it can stand comparison with even some of the well established schools in city. The school celebrated its Silver Jubilee in the year 1993. It was presided over by the then Governor of Tamil Nadu, Dr.Chenna Reddy.
The N.S.N. Matriculation Higher Secondary School in Chitlapakkam, was started in June 2001. The new school building with a built-in area of 82,000 sq.ft. was inaugurated on 02/02/2002 by the former Union Finance Minister, Sri.P.Chidambaram. It has a strength of 1975 students. The school auditorium at Chitlapakkam was inaugurated by mahatria Ra (The Founder of Infinitheism Spiritual Foundation) on 16th July 2011.
The N.S.N. Memorial School, which is affiliated to CBSE, was started on 7th June 2012. It has classes upto Std.XI and has a strength of 1860 students. The school building was inaugurated by mahatria Ra, Founder of infinitheism Spiritual Foundation. The N.S.N. Group of Schools caters to more than 5500 students.
Thus, from a humble beginning it has now grown into three well established Schools with all round progress. The NSN Group of Schools has received the NABET Accreditation from the quality Council of India, New Delhi, and has thus added another feather to its cap. We believe in Nurturing Students for the Nation. On the lines of the Vision of the school, students are given varied experiences beyond academics, which has a great impact on their personality. The school has several unique practices that works on the Physical, Moral, Social, Spiritual, Intellectual, Emotional and Aesthetic faculties of the child. What we instill in our children will be the foundation upon which they build their future. The purpose of education is not just accumulation of knowledge and its translation into marks ; the purpose of education is to assimilate knowledge into wisdom and apply that wisdom in the real world. Hence co-curricular and extra curricular activities are encouraged. This helps the students in developing creativity, communication skills, thinking skills and goes a long way in the development of the student’s personality.
