HISTORY

Assisi Franciscan Ashram, Mancherial which was formerly known as Oxford Creativity High School is an attempt of Friars Minor Conventual at Mancherial, in the State of Telangana in Adhilabad District. And, to give a genuine and sincere education to the backward people of coal belt area. A pious religious man called Mr. Mathew ventured to give qualitative education to students deprived of good education established this school in May 1988. Later Mr. Mathew handed over this school to the Friars Minor Conventuals for better education and administration. The Conventuals took up this school in January 2011.

The School is having 1365 students and 63 teaching and non-teaching staffs. We have students from 40 villages. The local people of this area are illiterate and many of them work in coalmines. Even though they are illiterate they have good concern about their children’s future. By taking up this school, it is our mission and vision to provide better education to the children who are coming from backward area. Students from 14 villages are coming to our School. Most of them live in small quarters where life situation is very poor and children do not have good atmosphere to study at home. The students remain in the School cam pus late in the evening and the staffs direct and look after them. Friars are staying in the school itself now and the construction of the Friary is nearing the completions and it will be officially established as a friary in the near future. Till then it will be the filial house of Assisi Shanthi Kendra, Karukutty.
