Our Heritage
Shri V. V. Bhat, lovingly and respectably called Bhat Sir, was born in 1930 in a small village near Udupi in Mangalore, Karnataka. The Bhats were a respectable family of educationists, known in those parts for their school, the Kadiyali Higher Primary School and Gundibail school, the latter of which was literally built by the family with their own hands.
Our Management
Children’s Academy Group of Schools was founded in 1970 by Late Shri. V.V. Bhat, an ardent and passionate educationist. This forward thinking school is led by Mr. Rohan Bhat and Mr. Rohit Bhat, for more than two decades, pioneering excellence in education with their dynamic and astute leadership. Recognised and admired keenly as prolific go-getters, they have created optimum learning opportunities for students to excel at Children’s Academy that boasts of four impressive branches in Mumbai. Children's Academy, Malad & Ashok Nagar branches function under the aegis of Malad Cosmopolitan Education Trust, a Kannada linguistic minority trust while Children's Academy Thakur Complex & Thane are managed by Malad Cosmos Education Trust, a Christian minority trust.
Today, supported by their wives Mrs Monica Bhat and Mrs Charlotte Bhat, the institution flourishes in an erudite and professionally managed environment. The advanced pedagogical practices of the Academy are further strengthened by the innovative tech prowess of Mr Ronit Bhat, our Communications Head and IBCP Coordinator, and Ms Shraddha Bhat, our spirited Branding Head, adds sheen with her pulsating branding strategies.
