It was in mid-80s that Syed Ihsan 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 relatively less developed part of Southern Lahore was purchased in 1989 by the Found from the Department of Housing & Physical Planning, Government 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. Within a period of nine years, after its inception, some more philanthropists social workers joined hands towards promoting this cause that enabled us to build a new Junior School block, add another floor to the Preschool and construct two additional floors for both the Boys' and Girls' Schools and also construct a multipurpose hall and a swimming pool. ’
By 2001, the School had become one of the leading Schools of Lahore. Encouraged by this success, the Foundation extended the educational facilities to Kot Khawaja Saeed, another educationally backward area of Northern Lahore. School followed school in quick succession; the third school of the chain, established in Johar Town, went functional in 2007. The fourth school of the chain, an other state-of-the-art campus spreading over an area of 52 kanals at Khayaban-e-Jinnah went operative in 2013. The fifth school, WAPDA Town Campus spreading over 27 Kanals became functional in April, 2022. With the grace of Allah سبحانه وتعالى, The Punjab School Multan Campus, located in DHA Multan will be operational in March, 2026.
