Mahmud Tarzi High School covers an area of 100 meters by 90 meters a total of 9000 sqm. It has an access from the main road to Darrul Aman to Kabul. There are no mines in the vicinity of the school and the school is ready to be rehabilitated.
Current Status
and Recommendations:
The Schools head master has informed us that there are over 4000 students
attending the Mahmud Tarzi High School whose age varies 7 to 18. The
school is need of an urgent repair and reorganization in terms of
Hygiene,Toilets,Emergency Systems,Classrooms,Electrical System,Heating&Ventilating
System,floors,halls,doors&windows,equipments and the condition
of the Infrastructure and the open areas.
First Aid medical room: There are no first aid medical
facilities. We strongly recommend putting one in our project with
a fully operational ambulance.
Projects Aim;
Mahmud Tarzi holds a special place in Afghan history and literature.
We would like to see a school that will honor his place in History
by preparing the young Afghans for tomorrow under the values held
dearly by Mahmud Tarzi.
The family of Mahmud Tarzi established Mahmud Tarzi Cultural Foundation
(MTCF) in Kabul, Afghanistan. MTCF will be working with reputable
international companies during this project in order to establish
excellent result for MTHS and for Afghanistan.
Aim of the project is to create one of the best high schools not only
in Afghanistan but the whole region to prepare young Afghans for the
challenges of tomorrow.
This can
only be achieved by increasing the quality of the education given
to the students and not by quantity. The capacity of the school must
be limited to the quality of the education that can be supplied by
the teachers.
The school
should have laboratories in physics, biology, chemistry and computers
as well as foreign languages.
We would
like to make our high school a shining example of Afghan Education
in Literature, Arts, Science and Sports.
Projects Timing:
The Rehabilitation of the Physical infrastructure must commence during
the dry season to get rid of all the damp and other hazardous situations.
This means that the schools students need to be allocated to an other
school for at least one full year. The repairs will take at least
12 months to complete. During this time, the foundation will pay special
attention to the training of the staff and administration that will
be employed at the school. We would require the full co-operation
of Ministry of Education to execute not only the physical rehabilitation
but also the training of the staff.
