The Legacy of PGDAV Senior Secondary School: A Journey Through Time

It all began in 1920 in the historic city of Multan (now in Pakistan), where a vision for quality education took root. A small but determined institution, originally known as Multan DAV Senior Secondary School, was shaping young minds with dedication and purpose. However, the course of history changed everything.

During the Partition of India in 1947, the school, like many others, faced immense challenges. With resilience and a commitment to education, the institution was relocated to Patel Nagar, Delhi. Under the leadership of its first principal, Sh. Atma Parkash Batra, a man of great wisdom and determination, the school found new ground and continued its mission. What was once a craft school in Multan soon transformed into a Senior Secondary School, adapting to the changing educational landscape.

By 1950, the school came under the guidance of the Multan DAV Society, which played a crucial role in its administration and development. Decades later, in 1984, a new chapter began when the school merged with the DAV College Committee, further strengthening its academic foundation.

Through the years, each principal has carried forward the school’s vision, ensuring steady progress. In its early days, Science, Commerce, and Arts streams were all part of the curriculum. However, over time, certain changes led to the school focusing primarily on Arts and Commerce while still upholding its tradition of excellence.

Today, PGDAV Senior Secondary School stands as a well-established institution with 33 spacious classrooms, providing a comfortable and effective learning environment. The school embraces modern education by incorporating more than five smart classrooms, where technology enhances the teaching experience.

Beyond academics, the school places a strong emphasis on extracurricular activities. It has two dedicated sports rooms, ensuring students receive the best facilities to nurture their athletic abilities. The school also takes great pride in its cultural programs, where students are encouraged to explore their creative potential and represent PGDAV on significant platforms.

From its humble beginnings in Multan to becoming a respected institution in Delhi, PGDAV Senior Secondary School has upheld its legacy of excellence. With a firm belief in holistic education, the school continues to inspire and shape future generations, staying true to its commitment to knowledge, discipline, and progres
