История
[ редактировать ]Школа была основана как Европейская школа горы Кармель матерью Вероникой Страстной в июле 1885 года для содействия обучению английскому языку бедных европейских девочек в районе Килон. [ 3 ] [ 1 ] Первоначально он располагался в небольшом бунгало на пляже в Тангассери. [ 4 ] город на побережье Аравийского моря с древними португальскими, английскими и голландскими поселениями и некогда процветающей англо-индийской общиной. [5] The school was inaugurated by Ferdinand Ossi, Bishop of Quilon,[4] as was the convent to which it was associated, on 22 July 1885.[6] In 1889, it was recognised by the Madras Presidency as a 'European Convent School'.[7] It became a high school in 1914.[4] The school was one of the only two employers of Anglo-Indian women in Tangasseri in the mid 20th century, the other being the nearby Infant Jesus Anglo-Indian Boys' High School.[8] Учреждение изменило свое название на Англо-индийскую школу для девочек при монастыре Маунт-Кармель, когда Индия обрела независимость в 1947 году.
The school's syllabus prepared students for the Anglo-Indian High School Examination.[9] The school later switched to the ICSE/ISC syllabus.[10]
