PHOTO: EXPRESSA long-delayed school aimed at providing the children of staff at the University of Karachi (KU) quality education on-campus may have narrowly missed controversy, The Express Tribune has learnt. The decision to establish the ‘Sardar Yasin School’ to provide KU employees living in the KU Staff Town an in-varsity facility for their children’s education was taken all the way back in 2013. This was despite the fact that land for the project was allotted to the Sardar Yasin Malik Trust, which is responsible for commencing the school. Although a school building was built, according to sources, little effort had been put into preparing it for its first academic session. “The board has taken no other concrete steps to establish the school either.” Speaking to The Express Tribune, school board member Muzaffarul Hasan blamed some of the delays on the coronavirus pandemic.
