Welcome to Community School

Education is a fundamental human right and an essential tool for the exercise of all other rights. The “CGS Community School” hopes to address this very human right by establishing a free education scheme for the children of deprived and socially marginalized families. The school, equipped with all the modern facilities, aims to promote individual empowerment, alleviate poverty and to foster ideal citizens.

Our children are our Nation's most valuable asset as they are the future leaders of the country. Educating our children is the backbone for socioeconomic development. They represent the bright future of our country and hold our hopes for a better Nation.

The journey of the CGS Community School began on 4th February, 2012 under the close supervision of a teacher with 18 students at the CGS Lower school premises (Play group).  It has ensured availability of a campus, trained teachers, accessibility to equipped classrooms, proper water and sanitation systems in addition to attractive games and outdoor facilities for its students. Within a short time another class consisting of 14 students commenced on April 1st of the same year due to high demand. Currently, there are 46 students in three classes: KG, Grade 1 and Grade 2.

The students begin an enthusiastic day in the daily assembly. It offers sincere teacher supervision, supply of free books, copies, drawing materials, clothes and a healthy meal. As a result, the reputation of  the CGS Community School spread rapidly and children of underprivileged families rushed to get enrolled here.
