K P Public School

We are located right near the Gaura Railway Station here in Pratapgarh. It is a busy spot but that is just how it is around here. K P Public School has been around for a while now and we just go about our work day by day. Most of the children come from the nearby villages and houses around the station area. You can hear the trains passing by sometimes while the classes are going on. We have the usual classrooms and a bit of space for the kids to run around during the break. It gets quite dusty in the summer months but we try to keep the place tidy. The teachers arrive early and the gates open before the first bell rings. We don’t have any fancy facilities, just the basic stuff needed to teach the kids their lessons. Sometimes the power goes out and we have to open all the windows to let the air in. It is a simple setup we have here in Uttar Pradesh. The parents often stop by to talk about how their kids are doing or to pay the fees. We know most of the families by name because it is a small community. Life moves at its own pace in Gaura. We just focus on making sure the students show up and learn something before they head back home in the afternoon. It is hard work sometimes but seeing the kids grow up makes it worth it.
