The Mahatma Education
Society is proof of a vision linked
irrevocably to national goals. Born in a time
when education was deemed service, it set about
bringing social and economic change through the
proactive personal development of every child
that came into its fold. The vision of Dr. K.
M. Vasudevan Pillai (Founder, Secretary,
and CEO) and Dr. Daphne Pillai
(Joint Secretary and Rector), the trust grew
from a single school into a multi-institution,
multi-location group delivering quality
education at all levels.
Today MES owns and manages over
48 institutions, from pre-primary to post-graduation.
It comprises schools, international schools, degree
colleges, night colleges, management institutions,
engineering colleges, colleges of architecture,
colleges of education (including physical education)
and polytechnic institutions. Popularly known as
the Pillai Group of Institutions, this education
major has its own teacher training institutes, which
allow it to define its own standards and to achieve
100% results unfailingly.
It does so through a highly
motivated faculty, a learning environment
powered with the latest technologies, a spirit
of innovation that sees it reach for the highest
standards of accreditation in its field, and an
approach that recognizes that the sharing of
knowledge remains the finest manifestation of a
unified world. The Pillai Group is
credited with several “firsts” in its field. |
