The Managing Committee is taking the opportunity of the forced closing of the school due to Covid-19 to carry out major work on the campus. The program includes the installation of the laboratory and the expansion of a classroom in the Main Building in order to meet the new distancing standards imposed by the government since the beginning of the pandemic. On the few images that have been sent to us from Zanskar, we can see the different stages that required the breaking down of a wall between two existing classrooms.
