Asan Memorial: Sixty Years of
Quality Education for All
Since 1966, Asan Memorial has stood for a simple belief: quality education should be within everyone's reach. As Tamil Nadu's first CBSE-affiliated school, it broke new ground in private education, and six decades later, that founding vision still guides everything we do. Explore the journey that has shaped generations.
The Man behind the Mission
Our Founder General Secretary & Chairman
Shri A.K. Gopalan built a movement.
A civil engineer by training, he brought precision to education. But what he was building could not be measured in steel or stone. As Founder, General Secretary and Chairman of the Asan Memorial Association, he spent nearly fifty years doing one thing with unwavering consistency: creating spaces where young people could become who they were truly destined to be.
Under his leadership, the Asan Memorial Group of Educational Institutions grew with purpose. It expanded across Chennai, reached more students, opened more doors, without losing sight of its founding reason. He was the guiding force, and living proof that vision paired with decades of quiet dedication becomes a lasting legacy.
Marking Every Milestone
For six decades, Asan has grown through vision, commitment, and consistent pursuit of educational excellence. Each milestone reflects the dedication of founders, educators, students, and well-wishers. Explore the defining moments that built a respected educational legacy.
