==History==<br />
At the age of 19s, The [[Nambudiri]] community had strictly defied their children, both girls and boys to join in [[Education in India|public schools]]. Years back, [[Nambudiri|Nambudiris]] have always been great scholars in [[Sanskrit]] and the [[Vedas]]. But, their level concerning of modern education was very low. To conquer this crisis, in 1908, [[Yogakshema Sabha]], an organization of Namboodiris established a school at Vadakkiniyedath Mana, [[Edakkunni]], [[Ollur]] only for Namboodiri boys.<br />
<br />
After three years, the school was shifted to [[Bhakthapriya temple]] near [[Vadakkechira]], [[Thrissur]]. In 1919, the school had named as '''Namboodiri Vidyalayam.''' In 1928, it obtained its own properties like land and buildings when the school was started at near Kottapuram railway gate, [[Thrissur]]. In 1931, the [[Namboodiri]] girls also gained admission here. In 1949, the school became a [[Education in India|public schools]]. [[Chittoor Narayanan Namboodiripad]], [[Kurur Unni Namboodiripad]], [[Chittoor Kunhan Namboodiripad]] and [[K.M. Vasudevan Namboodiripad]] were the main patrons of the school. .<br />
