Gujranwala is one of Pakistan’s biggest cities and its factories — fans, cutlery, sanitaryware, ceramics, rice mills — supply the whole country and much of the Gulf. Its schooling has not kept pace. Beyond a handful of academies in Satellite Town, Model Town and Peoples Colony, serious students head down the GT Road to Lahore, in a daily van or a hostel. Scoodemy Virtual Academy brings the class home: live sessions over video with Scoodemy’s teacher pool, small sections, and a fixed monthly fee.
The city’s students sit BISE Gujranwala for Matric and FSc, with a small Cambridge stream at Beaconhouse and The City School. The exams that shape family plans are MDCAT for Gujranwala Medical College and the Lahore colleges, ECAT for UET, and increasingly the entry tests for GIFT University and the business schools. Our Academic School follows the Gujranwala board, the Competitive Exams school runs those tests on the real calendar, and every other school is open to students from any board.
