It is a Catholic institution, established and run by the Catholic Archdiocese of Patna. It is named after late Father James Creane S.J., the first Priest-in-charge of Gaya. It was Father Schmidt who had taken the initiative to construct the first school building in 1953. Till 1991, education was imparted to the students upto class VII. Feeling the genuine need of the people, the then Archbishop, Most Rev. Benedict J.Osta, was kind enough to upgrade the school to Class X. The school got affiliated to Central Board of Secondary Education in the year 1994. The school was upgraded to Senior Secondary level in 2004.
The school was again added with Creane Kids Galaxy, the motherly home for kids in January 2005. Thus, we have a complete unit of education from Pre-School to +2 standard today.
