Three Pakistani schools have earned appearance on the prestigious World's Best School Prizes. 

The list, introduced by T4 Education in 2022 following the  COVID-19 pandemic, recognises schools implementing innovative approaches to create meaningful change both in and beyond classrooms.

The winners of the five categories - Community Collaboration, Environmental Action, Innovation, Overcoming Adversity, and Supporting Healthy Lives- will be selected by a judging panel based on set criteria. 

To choose the winner of the "Community Choice Award," a public vote will be held for each of the 50 finalist schools. 

Following their announcement in October, the winners will be invited to share their experiences with global education leaders at the World Schools Summit, scheduled to take place in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates, from November 15-16.

The World's Best School Prize shortlist for Overcoming Adversity includes Sanjan Nagar Public Education Trust Higher Secondary School, a charity-run primary and secondary school based in Glaxo Town on Feroz Pur Road in Lahore.

 According to the statement, the school has implemented the Primary Years Programme (PYP) and International Baccalaureate (IB) curricula, employing an inclusive, inquiry-based approach to provide marginalized children with the essential 21st-century skills they need.

In the Community Collaboration category, the Juniper Campus in Quetta's Beaconhouse College Program has been named as a finalist. 

To provide youngsters in underprivileged rural areas with hands-on STEM education, the school has launched Science Gaari, a mobile, student-led science lab.

Nordic International School in Lahore has also been shortlisted in the Community Collaboration category. 

The school fosters a healthy learning environment by promoting a culture of kindness and actively involving parents in their children's academic journey.
