Message from the Principal

Dear readers,
A warm welcome onboard 2025-26!

The Antioch School management would like to convey our heartiest Congratulations to all the successful students, and the teachers for their Record Break passed percentage of 99.7%, in the last Academic Session 2024-25!

As we all know, to be successful and to achieve something in life we need to set proper goal and plan out the roadmap carefully beforehand, and act meticulously according to it. Every parent wanted their child to be successful in the future. But many fail to set up a clear roadmap for their child, leading them not able to reach their desired goal in life.

The Bible rightly taught us, “Direct your children onto the right path, and when they are older, they will not leave it.” Proverbs 22:6 (NLT). Most of the problem or challenges we faced by parents today in our children’s life is misbehavior. One simple root cause is that, they were not trained and guided while they were young. Parents don’t give enough time, love, care and guidance that often lead to chaotic life of their child in the future.

Keeping in mind the need of this new generation students, we as an institution try our best to bring up the students in every scenario they need to be nurture and developed. To achieve the desired goal and outcome, we earnestly require the cooperation of the parents, teachers and managing board.

Wishing you all a blessed session!

History

Origin and Progress of Antioch School:


The humble journey of Antioch School started with a visionary seed sown by Rev. T. Kampu and Mrs. T. Hawiphal, the President and Principal of Asia Antioch Seminary, Guwahati. They had a calling to open a school here in Tripura among the Debbarma tribals. They were constantly in touch with Rev. L.T Gangte to find a suitable site to start a school. Finally, I arrived in Tripura on the 4th December 2003 to begin the actual work. Upon my arrival at Abhicharan, Madhuchowdhury Para, West Tripura, I received a warm welcome from the villagers. I stayed at the rented house of Mrs. Mala Debbarma (Ama), for about five years then our family moved into the present campus.
At first, our school location was the abandoned Veterinary sub-center office near the Abhicharan market. After completion of all the physical arrangements, we were ready to enrol students.

 It was on the 5th of January 2004 that we opened school admission for the first time. A total of 45 students enrolled for classes KG-1 and KG-II in 2004 session. Classes began on the 27th of January 2004. While the classes were going on well under the mud-walled house, construction of the school building had also started at the present campus. The ground-breaking was done on 11th February 2004. Two years later the main building was grandly inaugurated on May 31, 2006 by Shri Jitendra Choudhury, honourable Tribal Welfare Minister then and former Member of Parliament from Tripura.

Starting with 45 students, today after twenty years we have a total of 415 students (2025) with 17 teaching staff and 7 non-teaching staff. The school has Classes from Nursery to Class VIII. The school is recognized by the government of Tripura, Education Department as secondary stage since 2012.
