CHIREC International is a K–12 school located in Hyderabad, India. It was founded in 1989 by Ratna D. Reddy.[2]
CHIREC has three campuses, with the main campus located in Kondapur, a Pre-Primary campus in Jubilee Hills, and a third one in Gachibowli with Pre-Primary–Class 4. The school offers three curricula: the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IBDP), Cambridge Assessment International Education (CAIE) and Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE).[3]
In April 1989, the Children's Recreational Centre (CHIREC) was founded as a summer camp that offered classes in fine arts, performing arts, computer science, and sports. That June, CHIREC became a school for Nursery, PP-I, and PP-II students.
In 1996, the then-Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh, N. Chandrababu Naidu, inaugurated CHIREC's eco-friendly integrated campus at Kondapur. In 2004, CHIREC unveiled its Jubilee Hills Pre-Primary school campus and introduced Senior Secondary classes at the Kondapur campus.
In 2008, the Cambridge International Primary Programme (CIPP) was introduced to the curriculum, and the Cambridge International General Certificate of Education A/AS levels for Classes 10 and 12 were also introduced three years later. In 2012, CHIREC gained authorization for the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme.
The Gachibowli campus was inaugurated in 2012.
In 2019, CHIREC entered into a partnership with Cognita, a global schools group with 76 schools across Asia, Europe, and Latin America.
