Sardar Ballabh Bhai Patel Inter College

Sardar Ballabh Bhai Patel Inter College is situated in a place called Dadauli, which is in the Harisenganj part of Allahabad. The address is pretty easy to find if you are from around here. It’s an inter college, so we have a lot of students who are in their final years of schooling, deciding what to do with their lives. Many of them come from the surrounding villages, often riding their bicycles for quite a distance to get here. You’ll see the bikes parked in long rows outside. The college is a big, simple building that stays quite cool in the mornings. There is a lot of open space around us, which is nice compared to the crowded schools in the middle of the city. The teachers here are mostly local people who have been working at the college for a long time. They know the families and the challenges the students face. We follow the standard curriculum and hold exams twice a year. The classrooms are large with high ceilings and big windows to let the air in. It’s a very quiet and practical atmosphere. We don't have a lot of fancy resources, but there is enough for the students to study for their intermediate certificates. It’s just a solid, local institution that has been serving the people of Dadauli and the rest of the 212507 area for many years now.
