Kotak Salesian School, Visakhapatnam is a Catholic Educational Institution established on 17 June 1963 by the Salesian Education Society, dedicated to the noble mission of education and human development. The Fransalians have been serving the people of India through quality education and holistic formation for generations, reaching out to children irrespective of caste, creed, religion, or social background.
For more than six decades, Kotak Salesian School has remained committed to nurturing young minds through an education that harmoniously integrates academic excellence, moral values, character formation, and social responsibility. As a Catholic institution, we strive not only for the intellectual, cultural, and physical development of every child but also for the formation of strong moral character rooted in faith, discipline, integrity, and compassion. Our mission is to help every student grow into a responsible citizen, a person of integrity, and a worthy child of God.
The school aims to provide a liberal and value-based education that enables students to develop their talents to the fullest. We endeavour to cultivate critical thinking, creativity, leadership, discipline, and a spirit of service, preparing our students to contribute meaningfully to society and uphold the highest ideals of humanity.
Kotak Salesian School is affiliated with the Council for the Indian School Certificate Examinations (CISCE), New Delhi, and prepares students for the Indian Certificate of Secondary Education (ICSE) Examination. The curriculum combines academic rigour with co-curricular and extracurricular activities to ensure the holistic development of every learner.
The school offers Hindi and Telugu as Second Languages and maintains continuous assessment through bi-monthly and term examinations, with regular progress reports shared with parents and guardians. We firmly believe that education is a collaborative partnership between the school and the family.
Recognising the importance of physical fitness and teamwork, the school provides ample opportunities for students to participate in sports and games such as Basketball, Volleyball, Cricket, Table Tennis, Throwball, Shuttle Badminton, and other athletic activities. To foster leadership, healthy competition, cooperation, and school spirit, students are organised into four vibrant Houses:
● Phoenix Ignis
● Aurora Lux
● Verdantia
● Aqua Vitae
These Houses encourage students to excel in academics, sports, cultural activities, leadership, and community service while promoting unity and camaraderie.
Guided by our motto, “For God and Country,” Kotak Salesian School remains steadfast in its mission to shape young men and women who are academically competent, morally upright, socially responsible, and spiritually enriched.
As Henry Ford wisely said:
“Coming together is a beginning; keeping together is progress; working together is success.”
Inspired by these words, the Kotak Salesian School family continues to work together with dedication, commitment, and excellence, ensuring that every student is empowered to dream, strive, and succeed while becoming a beacon of hope and service to society.
