Tarini Choudhury Govt. Girls H.S. & M.P. School, also known as Tarini Charan Girls' Higher Secondary School, is a public school located in Guwahati, Assam, India.[1][2] It is named after educationist Tarini Charan Choudhury.[3]

The school organized its Platinum Jubilee celebration in 2019.[4]

History

The Tarini Charan Girls school was founded in the 1950s and was initially located in the Uzanbazar area of Guwahati.[5] It subsequently shifted to the present site located at the Guwahati club.[6] In December 1963, the Government decided to take over the school, which had previously been government-aided.

The previous principal of the school was Haramohan Dev Goswami.[7] As of 2018, the school has had no principal or vice-principal in post for five years, and twenty-five staff vacancies in total, which has "crippled" the school and pupils' results and the number who are able to take science subjects.[8]
