The Omega International School was established in the year 2005, with 150 students. This is the first expression of  Shri Parthasarathi Rajagopalachari's  long - standing commitment to education.

The school has been established for the dual purposes of teaching children not only what they need to succeed in the real world by way of practical skills, but also to teach them the values that they need to cherish and uphold all their lives. This was essential, in Shri P. Rajagopalachari's opinion, if children are to have the wisdom to deal with the world with a sense of balance. Too often, we find persons who are brilliant intellectually, but lack the humility that must come with such knowledge, and thus they create without a sense of responsibility. Shri P. Rajagopalachari has always felt that knowledge must be accompanied by the wisdom to use that knowledge in the right way. Without this balance, the knowledge can often be destructive, both to the author, and to those for whom it is being created. A good example is our experience with nuclear energy.

Omega International School strives to bring about this sense of balance in its students, to apply what they learn with humility and wisdom, so that the end result will be harmonious and productive and not destructive.

To this end, the school espouses a Value Based Spiritual Education Program VBSE that endeavours to teach children the values that they need to balance their education, so that they go into the world as balanced and excellent individuals. Like Jonathan Livingston Seagull, they too need to learn to fly on two wings, one of knowledge and the other of wisdom to handle that knowledge with responsibility and humaneness. Only then can they hope to achieve the true extent of their innate potential, and become what they have to become, well balanced and spiritually evolved human beings.

Over the last five years, the school has grown from it's small beginning to almost 3000 in strength, and continues to grow. The school has established many programs to augment the VBSE program, and continues to look for new and innovative ways to guide the children towards their goal.
