A school that stops at Class V forces families into hard choices. Additional classrooms at the Government School in Dabolim are changing that story - opening the path to Class X in the neighbourhood itself.
Classrooms Are Policy
Concrete rooms are not decoration. They are policy you can touch: science periods that need space, secondary teachers who need rooms, and adolescents who need a campus that takes them seriously.
Goemkarponn reported that this expansion was undertaken as part of the education push around the Gomati Foundation, with the upgraded premises dedicated during the 28 July programme.
Enrolment Tells the Truth
When parents trust a school, numbers rise. Dabolim’s government school enrolment growing from around 40 to more than 150 after bus support and facility upgrades is the real audit. Buildings matter; belief matters more.
What Comes Next
Secondary status must be matched with teacher support, learning materials, safety, and continued transport where needed. The Gomati Foundation’s student sponsorships can help the most vulnerable stay the course through Class X and beyond.
