HISTORY OF THE SCHOOL

The School is governed by a registered body ‘Christ Educational Trust’ Bengaluru. Christ School is ideally located a few blocks away from the Bannerghatta road which runs through the southern part of Bengaluru and is least disturbed by the bustles of the city.

The idea of a school with reference to the request by the general public especially the Christian minority of the locality was approved by the governing body meeting of Christ Educational Society held on 7th September 1983 at Dharmaram College. The matter was entrusted to Fr. Benedict CMI and Fr. John Marius CMI. Their hard work paved the way for the development of the school into an outstanding institution. The first SSLC batch of 41 students came out in flying colours in March 1990 under the able guidance of the founding Principal Fr. John Marius CMI. The ICSE section was started in 2007 by the then Principal Fr. Joseph Rathapallil CMI. The school began to function as two separate schools from May 2013 shifting the state syllabus section to Dharmaram campus under the leadership of Fr. Augustine Paimpallil CMI as its Principal. The ICSE section continued under the Principalship of Fr. Shaju Varghese CMI. A new section which is proposed to be affiliated to CBSE board was begun in June 2017. A new campus of Christ School at Kumbalgodu was inaugurated on 25th February 2018 under the Principalship of Fr. Augustine Paimpallil CMI. Dr. Fr. Martin Mallath CMI took charge as Principal of Christ School from May 2018 to May 2020. Fr. Nilson Davis Pallissery CMI was appointed the interim Principal in May 2020. Fr.
