The Punjab School, established in 1992 in Township under the auspices of the Makkah Foundation, stands out as one of the most prestigious chains of schools. It has gained singular recognition through its meritorious results in a relatively short span of time, in tough competition with already established and reputed schools of the province. It has now developed into a comprehensive educational system, and the management has established four more campuses at Kot Khawaja Saeed, Johar Town, Khayaban-e-Jinnah, and WAPDA Town in continuation and extension of its policy to promote quality education at an affordable expense for all strata of society.
It was in mid 80’s that Syed lhsan Ullah Waqas and Mr Liaqat Baloch, the founder members of The Makkah Foundation and eminent social workers, realized the need for setting up a superior quality school that could provide quality education to the children of indigent and lower middle class at an affordable expense. A piece of land measuring 66 kanals, in a comparatively underdeveloped area of Southern Lahore, was purchased in 1989, by the Foundation from the Department of Housing & Physical Planning, Govt of the Punjab. The ground breaking ceremony of the Foundation’s first educational venture, the Township Campus, was held on 14th August 1990. This School took a modest start with Preschool, Junior & Girls High School In April 1992 and Boys High School in April 1994 in three blocks of single-storey buildings.
