PM SHRI Kendriya Vidyalaya Air Force Station Thanjavur came into being in 2007 with classes I to VIII. Initially, the school was housed in the tentative, makeshift buildings inside the campus of Air Force Station Thanjavur. Ever since its inception, the school has been growing from strength to strength. The school was developed from Middle School to Secondary School with introduction of classes IX and X in 2008-10 and further promoted to Senior Secondary Level with starting of classes XI and XII in 2010-12.
To accommodate a greater number of students getting admitted into the school, new building was constructed in area spanning across 9.68 acres of land, and the school was shifted to the new building and permanent location in the year 2022. The new building was officially dedicated to the nation in online mode by the Hon’ble Prime Minister of India, Shri Narendra Modi on the 20th of February 2024.
Commerce Stream, in addition to the existing Science Stream, was introduced at the secondary stage in 2023-24 as a result of ever-growing students’ strength and catering to the fancies of the students and their parents.
PM SHRI Kendriya Vidyalaya AFS Thanjavur also enjoys the privilege of being one of the select few Kendriya Vidyalayas to have introduced Bal Vatika – 3 with effect from 2023-24.
