What looks like a small classroom is actually an entire school inside a bus. The mobile school begins its day with students taking part in an oath like all elementary educational institutions. Students are taught up to fifth grade and then registered for primary education completion (PEC) exam from Bakalia Government Primary School. The school started its journey with one bus in 2009 in Chawkbazar area of Chattogram city. Now it has two buses, one of them operating academic activities in Dhaka. Teachers impart lessons in three sessions -- morning, noon, and evening. "Hope-87" took the initiative with funds from German-based ZF. The photos were taken in Lalkhan Bazar area on Tuesday.
