The last four decades have witnessed a remarkable transformation in the educational status of Muslims in Kerala, supposedly the most backward in education. The driving force behind this effort has been THE MUSLIM EDUCATIONAL SOCIETY (REGD.) . M.E.S, the biggest educational agency of the Muslim community in India having thousands of life members and hundreds of institutions. The movement started under the great leadership of late Dr. P.K. Abdul Ghafoor in 1964 at Calicut was supported by a large number of professionals and businessmen and in a short span of time, it spread to all Districts, Taluks and even at the Panchayats in Kerala, other parts of India and abroad and still the organisation is growing fast, extending its services further to reach every nook and corner of the state. An International School, established in 1974, M.E.S. RAJA is the oldest Residential school in Malabar region, having a cosmopolitan culture, affiliated to CBSE, imparting education to boys and girls from KG to XII standard hailing from Bihar, U.P, Karnataka, Lakshadweep, Delhi, Manipur, Nepal & Gulf countries besides Keralites. Its campus is spread over 15 acres serene and scenic rural environment, with expansive playgrounds for outdoor games, facilities for indoor games, Karate practice and Gymnasium. Our aim is to impart quality education regardless of caste, class, creed, race or gender. Great emphasis is given to formation of character, self-confidence, co-operation, leadership and responsibility. We believe in the value of promoting children’s self esteem in a safe and secure environment and incorporating a holistic approach which caters to the individual needs of our children. The school is affiliated to Central Board of Secondary Education, Delhi. At the pre-school stage we have been following the Kindergarten system over the past many years which is under the process of change to Montessori System. Our School is also a member of the M.E.S School Education Board – Kerala and is supported by the board in all aspects of education.
