Our Goals
Who We Are ?
St. Paul’s aims to ensure a commendable education system, a first of its kind schooling experience in Guntakal as we strongly believe that there is no good education in true sense here, people from different places work here and hence one can address Guntakal as a “cosmopolitan village” in Anantapur district with the lack of schools of good standard. Hence, we took up the challenge of establishing this school to help people in the best possible ways in the field of education and make a real difference. The priority of St. Paul’s is to unlock each child’s full potential
What we do ?
We provide them with the opportunities and the stimulus they need to excel academically and socially. Pupils are encouraged to develop their leadership skills and qualities with integrity and honesty. We aim to give our students one of the best and global approach educations setting them on the road to a successful future. We embrace the concept of true education; explore new learning frame works of the 21st century; and expand the connection between technology, school and parents. The rich experience of schooling at St. Paul’s where head and heart knowledge goes together should gift our students a rewarding life in the adult world.
Rev. Dr. Stephen Joseph & Mrs. Susan
Our
Founders
Deprived and distanced for quality education in cities,
Rev. Dr. Stephen Joseph vowed to himself to start a quality school in towns and hence St. Paul’s was birthed in Guntakal. Passionate for a quality school, Stephen Joseph as a paper boy, who delivered 500 news papers every day, joined a school to be warden in 1989.
His work with different schools as 12th grade failed till 1992, gave him deeper insights of running a school. Since monetarily he had nothing, he could not dare enough to start a school on his own but pursued his education till graduation by doing some menial jobs. Obeying the call of God, he took theological education journey from 1992 and went on to finish a Masters degree in theology.
While his second Bachelor degree in theology at Calcutta, Stephen Joseph met his wife Susan (earlier named Dhanapati Devi) who had similar story of educational background. Susan who was the topper in Manipur University in her Bachelor of Science degree had to sew clothes to support her education. After finishing her second Bachelor Degree in Theology at Hyderabad, they both were united in holy matrimony in 2002. Stephen Joseph went on to pursue his Doctoral Degree in USA and successfully completed in 2008.
Both Josephs passion for providing education became so strong that they helped few boys in pursuing their education till 2014. Totally they helped in educating 47 boys and today all of them are well placed in different jobs. This passion led Josephs to start a school under their founded organisation Grace Endearment Mission Services (GEMS) at Guntakal town. Both believe in providing education while children stay with parents as opposed to residential schools. While educating children, helping them with family values and nurture them with relational bonds is the wholesome exercise of the school. One of the challenging missions of the founder was to build an international school at Guntakal to provide a superior quality education in the region.
