Founded in 1985, St. Raphael’s Cathedral School began its journey with just a Baby Class, driven by a vision to provide quality education rooted in values. In 1992, the institution was upgraded to a Primary School, marking the first of many milestones.
By 2001, the school achieved a significant advancement by gaining affiliation to the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE), New Delhi under Registration No. 930313. Since then, it has grown into one of the leading CBSE schools in Palakkad, offering holistic education from foundational years through higher grades.
Our school is proudly managed by the St. Raphael’s Cathedral Educational Society (Reg. No. PKD CA 319/1999), which was formed by the Parish Yogam of St. Raphael’s Cathedral, Palakkad. This ensures the school remains grounded in strong moral and spiritual values, while delivering academic excellence.
