Introduction

The Middle Section, Karachi Grammar School, comprises Classes VII to IX with students between the ages of 11 and 14, and is situated in Saddar, in a building that was built about 135 years ago.

School timings are 7:45am to 1:30pm on Monday to Thursday and on Fridays, School ends at 12:15pm.

All subject classes are Faculty based, which requires students to move from class to class during a six, 45 minutes, period day, Mondays to Thursdays, and a five period on Fridays.

The Middle Section offers children, locker facilities, the use of various game-specific courts, ICT classes and two well-equipped Audio Visual rooms, apart from the traditional, well-stocked Library (with a Computer Section), modern Laboratories, spacious Art rooms and a Sick Bay.

We expect our children to wear their uniform proudly and behave with dignity and courtesy to everyone, within and outside the School.

We are in constant and close liaison with the College Section in order to ensure that our curriculum is  relevant  to  CIE  O Level requirements. As Islamiat and Pakistan Studies are O level subjects, with examinations in Class X, the two-year preparation for these subjects begins in Class IX.

Each year we appoint around 25 Section Monitors who are led by Boy and Girl Head Monitors. There are also House Captains and sports representatives of all four Houses.

The three years that the students spend at the Middle Section give them the experience of studying in the old School building which is steeped in the history, traditions and culture of Karachi Grammar School.

It is hoped that the experience of studying here – as many of their parents, grandparents and even great-grandparents did – imbues students with the same sense of belonging felt by Grammarians prior to 1999, when the College Section moved to its new premises in Clifton.
