With a strong vision to improve education facilities in the area our organization GJUBBWWC, established the first primary residential school in 1993. A school started with 35 students and 2 teachers. Today we are providing quality education to 812 students out of which 512 students are day scholars and 300 are residential ST tribal students.
Due to our effective management and Commitment towards our students, the Ministry of Tribal Affairs is aiding with yearly grants to 250 ST students.
