Gokalpura Primary School was established in 1957 and currently has 394 students in first to eighth grades. The existing school building lacks sufficient classrooms, leading to some classes being held outdoors. The newly donated building is a two-story structure with four spacious classrooms.
With the completion of the new building, the school will be able to accommodate more children, and local education authorities expect that the next school year will see the student body grow by approximately 30-35% (about 80 students). Higher educational levels and long-term development in this rural community are anticipated.
The NX Group will continue fulfilling its social development responsibilities by connecting people, companies, and communities, and by actively engaging in social contribution activities to help bring about sustainable societies.
