Army Public Schools (APS) are chain of educational institutions under regional commands of Indian Army established for the purpose of providing education to the children of Indian armed forces personnel. With a nationwide presence spanning 137 schools, it is one of the largest chains of schools in India. The Army Welfare Education Society (AWES), which was founded in 1983, oversees the management of the APS system, and has established over 137 Army Public schools and 249 Army pre-primary schools across the country, as well as several institutions of higher education.
Since their inception, APSs have witnessed significant growth, with a student population of around 20,000 in 1987 expanding to a mammoth system with a current student strength of approximately 2.3 lakh and 8,500 teaching staff. On average, 5,000 students are added to the APS system every year.[1]
Overview
In general, the management of schools is overseen by the regional commands of the army, and the educational pattern followed is that of the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE). Admission priority is given to children of army personnel. Additionally, each Army school is led by a chairman, who is a senior Indian Army officer holding the rank of brigadier, and a patron, who holds the rank of major general.[2]
