FGEI (C/G) DIRECTORATE SIR SYED ROAD RAWALPINDI CANTT

Federal Government Educational Institutions (Cantt/Garrison) are our invaluable national assets, which are imparting, virtually free of cost, quality education to hundreds of thousands wards of Armed Forces personnel as well as civilian residents of cantonments. The achievements and contribution of these institutions towards the promotion of quality education in the country can easily be compared with the attainments of the most reputed educational institutions, being run by public as well as private organizations.

FGEIs (C/G) Directorate manages 318 schools and 43 colleges spread all over the country. The Directorate has a dual role both as a Directorate of Inspector General of Training and Evaluation (IGT&E) Branch, GHQ, and as an attached civil department of the Ministry of Defence. It has more than 10,000 employees, paid out of civil estimates, and the strength of students in FGEIs is approximately 2, 00,000.

Before 1975, these institutions were under the control of respective Cantonment Boards (CB), and were commonly known as CB schools/ colleges. In 1975, these institutions were nationalized, and placed under the control of Federal Ministry of Education. In 1977, their administration and management was transferred to the GHQ, (Army Education) Directorate. In 1981, a separate Directorate was established to exclusively manage FGEIs (C/G).
