About G.E.S. English Medium School in 220 Jawahar Nagar, Goregaon (W), Mumbai

Goregaon Education Society was founded by the group of social workers of Jawahar Nagar. It started a school with 130 students in 1958-59 with Gujarati medium under the name "I.B.Patel Vidyalaya". With growing strength and further demand a seperate girls school was started in year 1960-61 under the name "Sir B.J. Girls School". The primary school continued co-educating and a seperate building was constructed and the school was named as "P. Z. Patel Vidyalaya" in the year 1973-74. The society was catering to the needs of local Gujarati community year after year.The first batch of SSC went out in the year 1962 and over 90% result have been the bench mark of both I. B. Patel and Sir B. J. Girls School. A seperate primary school was made in 1982-83 in the name "D. S. Patel Balvatika". The society has nearly 5000 students by then. Gradually there was a shift in the demand from Gujarati medium to English medium. A seperate building was contructed and with 85 student enrolled in premises in the year1984-85. English medium school was started by the society. There was a fall in the strength of Gujarati section and this was compensated by the the english medium which rolled out the first batch of SSC with 100% result in 1997. Now the society is giving the best and more suitable medium to the students whose parents are the past students of our school.
