Manchester Global School: Shaping Future-Ready Leaders For A Transforming World

Overview & Mission

MGS was established on the belief that education should be the strongest foundation for life. MGS blends Indian educational ethos with global best practices, creating a learning ecosystem where academic excellence, character development, technology integration, and experiential learning coexist seamlessly. 

Located on the fast-growing educational belt of Hyderabad, Manchester Global School (MGS) stands as a dynamic, future-focused K-12 institution offering both International Baccalaureate (IB) and CBSE pathways, just 20 minutes from the international airport.

Manchester Global School is an IB World School and fully authorised for the Middle Years Programme (IB MYP) and the Diploma Programme (IB DP). In addition, it also offers the Primary Years Programme (IB PYP) from the early years. Together, this creates an end-to-end international continuum.

The school’s mission is rooted in its motto, “Education and Knowledge with Wisdom.” MGS strives to nurture learners who can think critically, act ethically, and adapt to an increasingly complex global environment. Its vision is to develop compassionate, competent young citizens equipped to contribute meaningfully to the world, not just as professionals, but as leaders, innovators, and responsible human beings.

From its inception, the school has established a reputation for offering a structured, research-based, holistic education. Over the years, it has grown into a centre of excellence that prioritises personal growth alongside academic rigor, shaping students into confident individuals ready for higher education and global opportunities.

Institutional Strengths and Strategic Advantages

Spread across 20 acres and equipped with over 14 indoor and outdoor sports facilities, Manchester Global School differentiates itself through a future-centric curriculum, a strong international outlook, and an unwavering commitment to holistic development. 

It is an IB World School offering Nursery to IB DP, combined with the solid academic progression of the CBSE curriculum. The school offers families the best of both worlds: conceptual depth, inquiry-driven learning, and structured scholastic excellence.

Students are trained to think beyond textbooks, developing capabilities such as analytical reasoning, collaboration, structured communication, decision-making, creativity, and digital literacy, competencies that top employers consistently identify as essential. 

Set within a serene 600-acre green belt and spread across a modern 20-acre pollution-free campus, the school provides an environment that nurtures focus, well-being, and high-quality learning. Despite its calm surroundings, MGS is strategically located just 45 minutes from Hyderabad’s IT hub and major industrial corridors, ensuring students benefit from both tranquillity and industry exposure.

Complementing its academic strengths are premium boarding facilities, world-class infrastructure, and wellness partnerships such as Apollo Shine, which together create a safe, development-focused ecosystem. The school’s commitment to global methodologies, socio-emotional learning, sustainability awareness, and strong core values ensures that learning extends far beyond classrooms. By cultivating independent thinkers grounded in ethics, compassion, and responsibility, Manchester Global School positions itself not just as a place of academic learning but as a comprehensive talent-building ecosystem.

Manchester Global School is guided by the visionary leadership of Dr. Kondal Reddy Kandadi, Founder Chairman, whose commitment to educational excellence forms the foundation of the institution’s philosophy and long-term strategy. Dr. Reddy brings over two decades of distinguished experience in the higher education sector in the United Kingdom, where he most recently served as the Deputy Vice Chancellor at the University of Greater Manchester, UK.

In June 2021, he was honoured with an Honorary MBE – The Most Excellent Order of the British Empire, awarded by Her Majesty The Queen, in recognition of his outstanding services to Education, Public Health, and Industry in the UK. During his tenure in British higher education, he led the design and implementation of a major academic transformation strategy, repositioning the institution as a Teaching Intensive, Research Informed University with “student success” at its core. This strategic shift played a pivotal role in propelling the University of Greater Manchester into the Guardian Top 50 Universities in the UK.

Driven by a deep belief in the transformative power of education, Dr. Reddy established Manchester Global School as an institution that harmoniously blends global perspectives with Indian values, ensuring every child receives a balanced, future-ready, and culturally grounded learning experience. 

Under his leadership, MGS has grown into a dynamic centre of learning characterised by robust infrastructure, progressive pedagogy, disciplined culture, and academic integrity. His strategic direction continues to propel the school’s focus on innovation, academic rigour, and holistic development, enabling MGS to enhance its standards and broaden its impact year after year.

Supporting this vision is a dedicated academic leadership team responsible for ensuring curriculum excellence, instructional quality, and seamless day-to-day academic operations. Their collective expertise allows MGS to maintain consistently high benchmarks across academics, sports, and co-curricular domains, reinforcing the institution’s commitment to comprehensive student development.

The Spirit of Manchester

Manchester Global School derives its name from the historic City of Manchester, a global symbol of innovation, resilience, and transformative progress. As the birthplace of the Industrial Revolution, Manchester has long been associated with scientific discovery, entrepreneurial dynamism, academic leadership, and cultural influence. Its iconic red-brick universities, historic mills and warehouses, world-renowned football institutions, and vibrant arts and media hubs reflect a legacy of continual reinvention. The city’s pioneering contributions, from the discovery of the electron and the creation of graphene to the development of the world’s first stored-program computer, advances in artificial intelligence, and seminal work in economic sciences, have positioned it as a crucible for world-changing ideas. With 25 Nobel Prize laureates associated with the University of Manchester, the city remains a beacon of intellectual excellence.

Manchester Global School draws deeply from this spirit, embracing an educational model where tradition and modernity coexist, and where innovation, adaptability, cultural diversity, and social responsibility define the institutional ethos. The school’s name reflects its commitment to cultivating pioneers, leaders, and entrepreneurs who will contribute meaningfully to society, mirroring the transformative legacy and enduring global impact of the city it is named after.
