SOBHA’S COMMITMENT
TO EVERY LEARNER

The Road to Success “The road to success is paved with hard work, perseverance, and an unwavering commitment to offering a unique product of the highest quality”

Mr. PNC Menon had decided to will 50 percent of his wealth to charity over forty years ago. After the inception and subsequent success of SOBHA Limited, Mr. Menon wanted to make use of his wealth to help the less privileged people back in his hometown in Kerala. He started helping individuals in different facets of their lives. However, later he realised that to reach out to the deserving in a systematic manner, an organized effort was required. Thus, the Sri Kurumba Educational and Charitable Trust was formed in 1994, by Mr. PNC Menon and Mrs Sobha Menon as its Founding Trustees.

Under the guidance of Mr. Menon, the Trust runs various philanthropic projects alongwith the CSR programs of SOBHA Limited, and has elevated corporate social responsibility (CSR) to a whole new level. Today, SOBHA Limited, India’s first self-reliant real estate company, is redefining the scope of CSR and is making sustainable, long-term, and meaningful contributions to social development in rural India.
In addition, along with his wife Mrs. Sobha Menon, Mr. Menon is also a signatory of the global philanthropic campaign ‘The Giving Pledge’ run by Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and Warren Buffet.

The SOBHA Legacy

The SOBHA Academy was established in 2007 and managed by the Sri Kurumba Educational and Charitable Trust, the CSR wing of Sobha Ltd., located at Panniayankara, Palakkad Kerala . It is a registered charitable and educational society formed to mould the next generation of professionals with a global edge. The charitable trust also aims to reduce the economic disparities in the society. Mr. P.N.C. Menon heads this trust. The trust extends its services over the three panchayats viz. Vadakkenchery, Kizhakkenchery and Kannambra. It envisages the individual development of a student and the community as a whole.

From its inception, the school managed to create a niche positioning as ‘The School with Difference’ through various unique training methodologies. Since it embarked on its journey of excellence in 2007, it has been zealously pursuing its mission of imparting quality education to attain an international level of excellence. This institution is accredited with CBSE.

Holistic Support for Every Child

At The SOBHA Academy, we address the core challenges that hinder a student’s success — from learning difficulties and behavioral concerns to lack of parental support and real-world connection.

Our approach includes personalized academic guidance, regular counseling, and emotional support tailored to each child’s needs. We also work closely with families through ongoing parenting sessions and family counseling to ensure a stable and nurturing environment at home.

Teachers, the principal, and the school counselor collaborate with parents to monitor each child’s progress and suggest effective strategies for academic and behavioral improvement. We emphasize moral values, emotional well-being, and family harmony — helping parents become positive role models. Support is also extended for child protection norms and alcohol de-addiction in families when needed.
