School Profile

A brief history of the school

Trongsa Primary School is located near Sherubling Higher Secondary School and it is above Sherubling town. Sherubling Higher secondary school was previously a lower secondary school. As the school being upgraded to middle secondary school, there was a need for the sudden segregation, which gave birth to the present primary school which started functioning with effect from 8th April 1999 housing 206 students ranging from classes PP to II. The school was run by five regular teachers under the supervision of a Head master, Mrs. Yeshi Sydon. The school faced a lot of difficulties regarding classrooms and teacher shortages.

At present, the school has Classes from PP to VI with an adequate number of teachers and classrooms. As of now we have 26 permanent teachers, 1 NFE instructor, 1 games instructor and a caretaker. We have 496 students (243 boys and 253 girls).  The present principal is Mr. Nima Lama, who joined the school in February, 2008. The classrooms now look much cleaner as the school now has paved path. The school still has a lot of developmental activities to be carried out. The school has child friendly environment infused with GNH values and provides wholesome education to our children.

In August 2009, Tashi Pokto ECR was established under the care of Trongsa Primary School. The classes range from class PP to II. The school was closed down in 2014 since it didn’t fulfill the education policy.
