Ali Public School Tumkur

Finding us on Agi Glass Factory Road can be a bit tricky if you aren't familiar with the Erragadda area. Our address is Door No 13-1-55. The road outside is usually full of trucks and people moving things back and forth because of the factory nearby. It makes for a lot of dust, so we are always wiping down the windows and the benches. The school itself is a straightforward place. We have classrooms set up in a way that makes sense for the space we have. It’s not a quiet neighborhood, that’s for sure. You can hear the sounds of the industrial area all day long. The kids are used to it, though. They just go about their business. We have a small area near the entrance where parents wait. Most of our students live within walking distance, so you see groups of them walking home together in the afternoons. The building is older, and you can see that in the floors and the way the doors shut. We do our best to keep it tidy. Teaching here means being part of the Erragadda rhythm. It’s a hardworking part of Hyderabad, and the school reflects that. No one is putting on airs here. We just open the doors in the morning and do what needs to be done until it’s time to go home. The staff knows most of the families by name since they’ve lived here forever.
