Andhra Pradesh government is in the process of setting up international schools in the truncated state to improve the quality of education. The government is planning to attract well known institutions by deploying Public Private Partnership model for the first time in Education sector. The state will be giving free land as its share in the model while the school operations will be taken up by Private Partners.
Four major cities in AP – Vishakapatnam, Tirupati, Nellore and Vijayawada will have these international schools from the next academic year. The government is already scouting for a location in Vishakapatnam and currently zeroed in on 11 possible locations not far from the city. Out of these one will be finalized.
