By the time the CMS Primary School was upgraded to a middle school, Vidyadhiraja Swamikal started the Sree Vidyadhiraja Vidya (SVRV) Nair Service Society (NSS) School at Theerthapadapuram, Vazhoor. After CMS UPS was upgraded to High School and St. Paul's UPS at Pulickalkavala was also upgraded. Education spread and every boy and girl had the facility to get general education. Up until then only a few fortunate families had the facility for higher education, because of its high cost. Hostel charges, which once accounted for 85% of education costs, were rendered unnecessary with the establishment of several high schools and colleges in the vicinity.
