Current company St. Peter\'s College
Primary and Secondary Education · 111 employees · Founded 1846 · Agra, Uttar Pradesh, India
St. Peter’s College, Agra, founded in 1846, is an unaided Christian Minority Institution owned by the Roman Catholic Diocese of Agra Education Society, Wazirpura Road, Agra, a Registered Charitable and Educational Society, and is affiliated with the Council for the Indian School Certificate Examination, New Delhi. St. Peter’s College is one of the oldest institutions of its kind in the country. It began as a Boarding School in 1841 and was transferred to its present building in 1846, which has been accepted as the founding year of the school. Since the First War of Independence in 1857, St. Peter’s College has stood as a witness to the freedom struggle and to the changes that have taken place since then. The College had achieved such prominence by 1870 that the then visiting Inspector wrote in his report that it would \"bear no unfavorable comparison with the best institutions of a similar kind in England and Europe.\" In the same year, the school was affiliated with Calcutta University for its first entrance examination and was henceforth called a ‘College.’ Education at St. Peter’s was regarded as a sure passport to Roorkee College of Engineering, various government departments, and the Secretariat. As a result of the high reputation of the College, dignitaries like the Prince of Wales, the Duke and the Duchess of Connaught, the Duke of Edinburgh, Viceroys like Lord Northbrook and Lord Ripon, Governors of Uttar Pradesh, Ambassadors of the Holy See, Mother Teresa, leading sportsman like Vijay Hazare, actor-singer Kishore Kumar, leading statesmen, scholars, and poets paid visits to this Institution. After Independence, the College re-oriented its studies and co-curricular activities to suit the requirements of a free country and a developing society. It has successfully met the new challenge of nation-building and of training the young generation to be better citizens.
