A long cherished dream of Mr. M. Ghousuddin and Mrs. Jameela Ghousuddin became a reality in the year 1978, in form of “The Kenmore School” Kenmore has truly come a long way from its initial strength of just 7 students.
Mr. Ghousuddin, a very honest, soft-spoken gentleman, was the Deputy Commissioner of Commercial Taxes. Mrs. Jamila Ghousuddin, an immensely talented and enterprising lady, came from a highly educated and cultured family. Her grandfather Mr.Zahiruddin Mecci, whose name is listed in ‘The Cyclopedia of India’ vol. III, 1909, held numerous prestigious posts, one of thee being the inspector General of Police under the King of Mysore. Mr.Mahmud Sheriff, her father, a successful advocate of his time, was elected Minister of Public Health and Education in the first ministry of free India. He also held several other esteemed posts. Mrs. Akhila Begum, the first Muslim lady to have English education and also the first lady representative assembly member, a poetess and a revolutionary, was Mrs.Jamila’s mother.
On this solid foundation of illustrious members of the family serving the State as public servants, Kenmore School was built. Mrs. Jamila served as principal for 10 years. Soon after her demise in June 1988, her daughter Mrs. Ayesha Salma succeeded her. Kenmore saw tremendous change under her leadership of 23 years.
