Описание: History of Sadiq Public School Bahawal Pur

His Highness Sir Sadiq Mohammad Khan Abbasi, the Ameer of Bahawalpur laid the foundation stone of Sadiq Public School on 4th March 1953; provided 450 acres of land and financed the entire construction. His Chief Minister, Makhdoomzada Hassan Mahmud, supervised the project.
At that time there were very few public schools - Aitchison College in Lahore and Lawrence College in Murree - and His Highness was determined to provide a public school education for students in the Bahawalpur region.
On January 18th, 1954, His Highness Sir Sadiq Mohammad Khan Abbasi inaugurated the School with 37 students and 7 teachers. The initial structure consisted of the Main Academic Block, 2 Boarding Houses and 5 Staff Houses with Khan Anwar Sikandar Khan as the first Principal. Sadiq Public School began as an institution for girls and boys. In the next two years, one swimming pool, a hospital and 12 staff houses were built by the Public Works Department.
In 1957, the first batches of students appeared, for Senior Cambridge. In 1958 students appeared for Matriculation and in 1966 for Intermediate and in 1994 students appeared for Cambridge A Levels.
In 1966 the admission of girls was stopped. A separate Girls' Section started in May 2003 with 9 girls and has since grown to more than 700 girls with more than 100 boarders commissioned August 2006. The new academic building for girls, donated by H.H. the Ruler of Abu Dhabi and President of UAE, was completed on July 25th, 2008 for girls classes (Class 6 to 12). Lessons for girls in the new building began on October 6th, 2008.
