Kerala Kalamandalam, Cheruthuruthy

Thrissur is the Cultural Capital of Kerala and a major financial and commercial hub in South India. Thrissur has traditionally been a centre of learning. With the decline of Buddhism and Jainism, Thrissur became an important centre of Sanskrit learning. Thrissur is also fast becoming the educational capital of Kerala too. Church Mission Society School started in 1845 is the oldest school and St. Thomas College is the first college in Thrissur. On 2nd September 2022, Thrissur joined the UNESCO Global Network of Learning Cities (GNLC).[1]

The existence of four medical colleges, Kerala Agricultural University, about a dozen engineering colleges, College of Agriculture, Ayurveda college, veterinary college, business schools, well-known arts and science colleges and good residential schools make Thrissur a scholar's city. Thrissur is also the centre of coaching classes for the aspiring doctors and engineers of the future. These coaching classes prepare students for various all-India entrance examinations. Their presence gives Thrissur a distinct aura of being an educational centre of Kerala.
