He assured the community that the administration is committed to creating a safe, supportive, and encouraging environment for all students.
ZEO Tangdar emphasized the need for consistent monitoring and pledged full support to improve academic outcomes in the school. The visit reflects the commitment of the District Administration Kupwara and Directorate of School Education Kashmir towards uplifting educational standards in remote and conflict-affected areas.
This inspection serves as a reminder that even in challenging times, the pursuit of education must continue, offering hope and opportunity to children in the region.
