Our history:

The Talent Educational and Charitable Trust established The Talent Public School in 1994 at Njarakkal. The school is located in a quiet ambiance close to the Arabian Sea with a fresh air source and a clean environment.  It is completely free from the rush and the pollution associated with urban schools.  It is a CBSE English medium, co-educational, secular school.  Talent Public School has zero-tolerance for discrimination on the basis of cast, creed, or social status.  We aim at a holistic approach to education focusing on the student’s personality development, self–discipline, time management, learning skills, and above all, a clear-cut career path guidance.  We start this at a young age so that the foundation is solid.  The school started with pre-primary and standard I.  Now we train students up to Plus 2.

In spite of the school’s remote feel, it is only 15 minutes from the city.  Ours is a student-friendly school.  Breakfast is served in the school for students and staff.  We have well-equipped labs for chemistry, physics, biology, and computer training.

Student  Exposure:

We promote a wide range of extra-curricular activities like music, drawing, painting, instrumental music, dance, and yoga as mandatory skill training without students incurring additional costs.  Another unique feature of the school is that every student must participate in regular assembly programs and annual day programs.  This enhances individual discipline, and also helps to overcome stage frights, while cultivating the spirit of teamwork.

Tours are structured into the educational program, and we give much importance to educational tours and study camps. Study tours are conducted regularly.  When A.P.J was the President of the Country the Talentians had the rare privilege of spending some quality time with the first citizen of India at Rashtrapathi Bhavan.   A couple of years back Talentians took a flight to Kochi from Bangalore after their visit to Mysore and Bangalore.  Hyderabad and Secunderabad are regular tour destinations for our students.  Camps lasting for one week, conducted within the school campus are an exciting and unique learning experience for students.  We are taking our Std. III students for 3 days camp to Palakkad & Malampuzha every year.  Std.IV students are going to the capital city Trivandrum, every year for 4 days camp.  At this young age, we are training children to be independent.

Class VI to VIII:

The senior school children also take the first step into adulthood and need adequate guidance and counseling from all concerned. Throughout this period, the teachers are encouraged to be their friends, philosopher, and guide.

Festivals:

All festivals, irrespective of it's religious inclination, are celebrated extensively with the wholehearted participation of the entire school body followed by a feast for all.  This is with the view of making students understand, as well as to create opportunities for them to appreciate the different festivals from a broader, secular perspective.  Besides, it instills the spirit of cooperation, tolerance, and a sense of participation.  The bigger outcome is that students gain the exposure to Kerala’s rich cultural and religious diversity even from a young age.  Onam, Christmas, and Bakrid are some examples of festivals celebrated at our school with great cheer and full participation.

Class Strength:

 We maintain our class strength to a maximum of only 25 students. This makes it easier for teachers to give better individual attention to each student.
