Lady Irwin School for Girls is an educational institution in New Delhi, India, established in 1927. It is a composite English medium school from class I to class XII affiliated to the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE), New Delhi. It has a nursery section. The school has two branches - primary and senior. The school is housed in three separate buildings viz. primary at Defence Colony and middle and secondary at Canning Road, New Delhi. == General == The Lady Irwin School for Girls was established in 1927, under the leadership of the late Shri S. R. Das, the Law Member of the Viceroy's Executive Council, for the purpose of making education available under the same roof to all the children of Central Government servants. Since the Summer Capital those days was located at Simla, a branch of Lady Irwin School was first opened in Simla. A branch was later opened in New Delhi so that students did not suffer any inconvenience when the government servants moved to Delhi, which was the Winter Capital. The school building at Simla, which is considered to be a heritage building, today houses the DalZiel Hotel. The higher secondary School at New Delhi was and still is located at the erstwhile Canning Lane, now called Madhav Rao Scindia Marg, just off what was then known as Curzon Road, now called Kasturba Gandhi Marg. The middle school was housed in the Army barracks on Canning Lane just across what was then Pataudi House. The Army Barrack has since been demolished and the middle school is now housed in another building on Canning Lane which was constructed by funds raised by annual PT Shows organized at the National Stadium through the 1960s and 1970s by the students and teachers of Lady Irwin School. There are 3200 students in the New Delhi branch of the school and 120 staff members. Through the 1960s and 1970s, the Central Board of Secondary Education Merit List was dominated by the students of Lady Irwin School. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Lady Irwin School」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
