  • History & Memorable Moments

The PSBB School in Nungambakkam was established by people related to the Nungambakkam Ladies Recreation Club. The school opened with 13 students in a thatched shed on the terrace of the residence of the Dean & Director of the school, Dr. (Mrs.) Y.G. Parthasarathy. Today the school has three branches with more than 8000 students and around 500 staff members. [1]

A year after its inception in 1959, the school got its own campus which was located in Nungambakkam. As the school grew in strength, the need for extending its scale arose. Thus the T.P Road Junior school, was built ,as an annexe to the Main School. In 1978, this school became affiliated to the Central Board of Secondary Education, New Delhi. [1]

In 1976 another branch of the PSBB School(affiliated to the Central Board of Secondary Education) was started in a (then)forested, residential area of K.K.Nagar. The K.K.Nagar Branch initially had four sections of every class from kindergarten to Grade 10. Currently it has a total strength exceeding 5000 students with ten sections in each of these classes. Standards XI and XII have seven sections each. The school places much faith in technology, investing in plasma screens to aid teachers.The students of this schools are officially known as 'PSBB'ians. [1]

This group of schools, along with P. S. Senior Secondary School, D.A.V Group of schools,Chinmaya Vidyalaya(Taylors Rd), Chettinad Vidyashram, Bhavans Rajaji Vidyashram and National Public School form the educational elite of the Chennai education system. [1]
