Aga Khan Education Services
The school is part of the Aga Khan Education Services (AKES). 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, Gwadur in Pakistan and Mundra in India. Since the creation of Aga Khan Education Services companies in the 1970s, the schools have been centrally administered and managed.
