Glendale Academy – From a small plot to a Great Indian School in Forbes India

What started as a small school beside a historical landmark is now a landmark itself! We are talking about none other than Glendale Academy, which has featured in the list of Great Indian Schools in the latest Forbes India edition (July 2019). What makes this accomplishment sweeter is that it is the only school from Hyderabad to make it to the list. 

Established in the year 2003, Glendale Academy offers CBSE and IGCSE curriculum and a perfect synergy between eastern and western cultures. The Director – Education & Co-founder, Anjum Babukhan, has spearheaded the institution from day 1, executing its vision and working towards building a platform that lets children be children.

Glendale Academy is often referred to as a happy school because of the ambiance the management has created. Children love bustling in and exploring different aspects of learning. The school is a strong advocate of holistic growth and achieves it through the Multiple Intelligence Theory, which engages 8 intelligences that all humans possess and brings out the best in each child.

The sprawling campus, which occupies 11.2 acres in Golkonda is easily accessible with excellent connectivity with the rest of the city. The entire building is purpose-built, keeping the growth arc of little kids in mind. You will find bright classrooms, a vast library, an amphitheater, a multi-purpose hall, an auditorium, a dining hall, and many more amenities that make children feel like they are in a world that truly cares and nurtures them. 

This is not the first time that Glendale Academy has created a buzz and made it to the headlines. It has been recognized on multiple occasions for being a school worthy of the name. Some of its achievements include:

• Top 50 Schools in India (2017)
• Ranked 2nd Co-education Day School in Telangana (2017-18)
• Ranked 14th in India’s Top 1000 Schools (2017-18)
• Ranked 1st in Campus Infrastructure (2017)

Thus, being featured among the Great Indian Schools in Forbes India is an incredible feat but not surprising because Glendale is a force to reckon! We congratulate the entire management and the students of the Academy on this outstanding achievement. You have put Hyderabad on the educational map with this!
