D Dr. Nannapaneni Manga Devi, a visionary educationist and recipient of several national honors, founded Sri Venkateswara Bala Kuteer in 1965. Driven by the profound belief that "the child is the father of man," she left a secure government position to create an educational sanctuary where children could flourish with dignity, freedom, and a love for learning.
Alongside her dedicated companion, Ms. Prabhavathi, the duo sought the highest standards of pedagogical excellence by undergoing rigorous training with the Association Montessori Internationale (AMI). What began as a humble "House of Children" with just a single student has now blossomed into a premier educational landmark in Guntur, serving thousands of families over six decades.
The evolution of SVBK is not merely measured in buildings or branches, such as our prominent Syamalanagar and Brodipet campuses, but in the thousands of "Kuteerians" who are now global leaders. Our journey from a small Montessori room to a Diamond Jubilee institution is a testament to our unwavering commitment to holistic development, character building, and academic brilliance.
