The UCA has been promoted by a group of Christians from Kerala belonging to the Orthodox, Marthoma and CSI denominations. In the past thirty five years of its service, UCA has established a Higher Secondary School and a college of physiotherapy. Both the institutions are rated high in their respective fields as they maintain high standards of discipline and academic excellence leading to very creditable results in the examinations.

The Union Christian School was opened on 18th June 1979. It is recognized as a Matriculation Higher Secondary School by the Government of Tamilnadu. It is a co-education and an English Medium School.
