With a view to cater to the educational need, the residents founded The Versova Educational Trust in 1962. The Trust started the Versova Welfare Association High School in 1963 and Vatsalya (K.G. Section) and a primary school thereafter. The school and the Primary section of the Trust are very popular in the vicinity.

The educational activities started by the Trust were praised by the residents and as many students enrolled in the primary section and secondary section, there was constant demand for the higher educational institution. In order to fulfil the need of the people, the Trust decided to start a college in the year 1998 and they laid the foundation stone of the college building at the hands of Hon.
