[edit] Education
There is a boy's high school, a girl's high school and around 45 Primary schools for boys and girls. Haq Public School is the only private educational educational institution in the area. Some families prefer to send their children to it. Others prefer to send their children to Jamal English Education Academy, Chakdara Public School, and University Public School(UOM) etc situated in Chakdara. All of these schools provide pick and drop services to students. Most of the students study until Matriculation and stop because of lack of access and high cost of going to near by towns. A small number of male students go to Gulabad Degree College for Boys and University of Malakand, Chakdara. A very small number of female students go to FEF girls college, Chakdara. Currently, there is the only one female student who is doing her Bachelor of Sociology from University of Malakand.
