Aiming to Be the Best
Today, the role of a school is not only to pursue academic excellence but also to motivate and empower its students to be lifelong learners, critical thinkers, and productive members of an ever-changing global society. St.Behanan’s HSS Vennikulam is run under the aegis of Catholicate and MD Schools Corporate Management, under the Malankara Orthodox Syrian Church. We provide an atmosphere to our students for multifaceted development, where children are encouraged to channelize their potential in the pursuit of excellence. This can only be possible in a holistic, student-centric environment.
Education is not just a process of giving knowledge for a future job but a lifelong process which creates an understanding of moral and ethical values to guide one’s life in a right path. We are proud to be working with the Parents to ensure that students are given the right knowledge to face the future challenges. Parents, students and the school authorities are a team and we have to complement each other’s efforts.
At St.Behanan’s HSS, we focus on complete development of our students by involving them in both scholastic & co-scholastic activities.

Principal
I feel very privileged to be the Headmistress of this superb school, full of happy, well-behaved children, who are a joy to teach. I am very excited to welcome the children back to school. We have extremely dedicated and supportive staff, who work hard to provide the best opportunities for all of our children in a safe and happy environment. We are without a doubt a consistently good school offering a well-rounded education. We are extremely proud that our children achieve well above the State average. As a school, we are always looking for new ways to improve and grow. Our staff, coupled with supportive parents, contribute greatly to the success of our school. We all work together with a common goal, to ensure that our children are happy and successful
Our philosophy for education is to encourage and develop children’s abilities and talents so that each child grows into a confident, independent individual. We want our pupils to develop the ability to think and reason and to understand how our mindset can help us to be successful. We have high expectations for every individual and we encourage respect and a sense of pride.
We are passionate about creating a ‘learning’ institution that is dynamic and constantly seeking excellence to meet the needs of the present as well as the future, while learning from the ethical and moral value systems of the Indian past. We promote tolerance, mutual respect and international-mindedness. It is our commitment to mould children to be open to thinking globally and be prepared for life anywhere in the world.
As parents and teachers, it is our commitment to adopt ways and means to channelise the talents and energy of our students into creative community building. With this noble sense of purpose may I request all staff, parents and well wishers to join hands as we take St. Behanan’s to greater heights.
Education is a foundation for a better future
