About School

The Darul-Uloom Trust was created in 1920 by Mr. Hooseinboy Laljee and several eminent persons in order to build a school on the model of Harrow and Eton. The Darul-Uloom Muslim High School was started in 1920 in Panchgani, in the bungalow of the Nawab of Wai, with 30 students on the roll. The Trust bought an estate of over 165 acres on the Panchgani Mahableshwar Road and the school was shifted there in 1922. In May 1958, the Darul-Uloom Trust was transferred to the Anjuman-I-Islam, Bombay, a registered organization that manages a number of charities, orphanages and educational institutions. The Anjuman-I-Islam Public School started with four students. It has grown into an international school for boys with 350 students on the roll.
