 The school was established in 1957 when the first Communist ministry of EMS Namboodiripad had quickly sanctioned 65 high schools in the then educationally backward Malabar region.Though the high school was sanctioned, there was no sufficient fund or infrastructure in order to start the high school.Hence the Namboothiris of Naarayanamangalathu Mana graciously donated the land where the high school now stands.
