Founding and growth
[edit]The Narayana Group was established by Ponguru Narayana, an educationist in Andhra Pradesh, who later became a cabinet member in the Andhra Pradesh Government. His vision was to provide high-quality education that goes beyond the traditional curriculum, with a special emphasis on preparing students for competitive exams such as the Joint Entrance Examination (JEE), National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET), and the Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) Civil Services Examination (CSE).[5] [6]
It all started in 1979 when Ponguru Narayana, with only seven students, founded the Narayana Coaching Center. His commitment to making quality education accessible to all, especially the underprivileged, catalysed rapid growth and transformation. Today, Narayana has grown into a distinguished educational group with more than 800 institutions, spanning schools, colleges, and coaching centers, across 24 states in India.
At the heart of the Narayana Group of Educational Institutions lies a simple yet powerful belief: "Your Dreams Are Our Dreams". This mantra reflects the group's unwavering commitment to nurturing the aspirations of millions of students across India. Founded with a vision to provide world-class education and holistic development, the Narayana Group is dedicated to transforming students' dreams into reality, fostering academic excellence, personal growth, and success.
