Tagore Public School, one of the most prestigious schools in Kasaragod district of Kerala, was founded as Tagore Balaniketan in 1994. It is affiliated to the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE), which is the largest educa- tional board in the country. It is recognized by both the State and the Central Governments. It was upgraded to Senior Secondary level in 2012.
Establishing the first English medium school in the hilly area of eastern Kanhngad, the management with a glowing vision, infused with the spirit of the founder Late Shri Moncy Chacko Pullazhy has given impetus to a great educational enterprise. Though the school had a very humble beginning, it has grown steadily serving the educational needs of a large number of children today. The objective of establishing the school was to impart quality English education to children of Rajapuram and the surrounding areas inhabited by rural population. The initiative was taken by late Mr. Moncy Chacko Pullazhy, the then student leader Holy Family High School. Combined with his brave vision, the inspiration of his close friends, the support of Pullazhy Kuruvila Chacko, the head of the Pullazhy family, the mighty blessings of God, and with the constant effort put in by all the well-wishers, the school has grown steadily over the years. It is today a school with a difference and the most sought after in the area.
The school has endowments or trust funds and neither does it receive grants from the Government; it is entirely dependent on income from fees.
