Rang Mahal School, officially known as Government Rang Mahal High School, formerly known as Rang Mahal Mission School, is a government school located in Lahore, Punjab, Pakistan.[1] [2]
Rang Mahal School was founded by Charles William Forman and John Newton on 19 December 1849 as Lahore Mission School.[3] [4] It was the first English-medium school in northern India at the time of its establishment.[5] [4] Initially, the classes of the school were started under a tree with three students of Kashmiri ancestry.[1] The school was later shifted to Rang Mahal in 1852, a mahal that was previously owned by Saadullah Khan, a grand wazir of Emperor Shah Jahan, but was acquired by the mission to establish a school.[1] [6]
The school was nationalized by the Government of Pakistan in 1972.[7] Formerly, it was under the administration of Presbyterian Education Trust.[8]
