School History
The Aga Khan Higher Secondary School, Gilgit (AKHSS) was established in April 1998. The School proudly bears the prestigious name of the Aga Khan. The foundations of the present education system were laid by Sir Sultan Mohamed Shah Aga Khan, III, who established over 200 schools during the 20th century, the first in 1905 in Zanzibar, followed by schools in Dar es Salaam in 1906 and in Mundra, in India, in 1907.
The School is part of the Aga Khan Education Services (AKES). It has a long tradition of leadership in educational development. The foundations of the present system were laid by Sir Sultan Mohamed Shah, Aga Khan III, under whose guidance over 200 schools were established during the first half of the 20th century, the first of them in 1905 in Zanzibar, Gwadar in Pakistan and Mundra in India. Since the creation of Aga Khan Education Service companies in the 1970s, the schools have been centrally administered and managed.
AKES currently operates more than 300 schools and advanced educational programmes that provide quality pre-school, primary, secondary and higher secondary education services to more than 54,000 students in Pakistan, India, Bangladesh, Kenya, Kyrgyz Republic, Uganda, Tanzania and Tajikistan. Schools are also envisaged, or under development, in Afghanistan, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Madagascar, Mali, Mozambique and Syria.
