Presidency Group of  Institutions was founded under the banner of  St. Paul’s English School at Mahalakshmi Layout
in rented premises in 1976 by our Founder – Mr. Abdul Hameed started the first school with 4 students in the Kindergarten Section.

During this time, Mr. Abdul Hameed was assisted by his young 17 year old nephew, Dr. Nissar Ahmed who is the present Chairman of the Presidency Group of Institutions. In the year 1980, September 1, after the untimely death of Uncle Hameed, the mantle of leadership fell on his young but determined shoulders. He worked harder, stronger and
faster and built St.Paul’s into an institute of excellence.

In 1992, the school was rechristened to ‘Presidency’ from St. Paul’s English School.

In the year 1985, The Abdul Hameed Memorial Educational Trust was registered. In 1992, the school was rechristened to ‘Presidency’ and to the present day the name ‘St Paul’s has been retained with one of the branches at J. P. Nagar.

The Chairman, Dr. Nissar Ahmed, with his sense of purpose, far sightedness and strong leadership led the growth of the Institution right from one school to an empire of 13 Institutions.
