Khen Rinpoche Tsering Dorjee, chairman of the trust, knowing the fact that without a proper educational foundation, the future of the younger generation of these remote areas will remain bleak and dark, and he also knows that the real and outreaching development cannot take root without the dissemination and diffusion of sound knowledge to the lowest level of the society, so he earnestly started a school named PEMA MANI PRIMARY SCHOOL in the year 2003 with an enrollment of 65 students and 04 teachers as a faculty member.

With the vision of developing the minds of children in a way that they regain their originality and unfold their basic human potential in goodness through the awakening of intelligence. To attain supreme freedom through dispelling ignorance and awakening wisdom combined with compassion for a blissful and holistic life. This school provides free education along with food, clothing, shelter, and health care for the destitute children of Tuting and other areas. Till 2022, we only gave admission to male students but, after visiting different villages our chairman, Khen Rinpoche Tsering Dorjee in 2022, was moved by a young girl not having the opportunity for her basic human rights, that is education, and he ordered the Pema Mani Monastic School administration to give an admission to female students. As

per our chairman’s vision, Pema Monistic School accepts female students as its students from 2022 and gives them same care and facility.

In 2011, Pema Mani Primary School was registered under the Department of Education, Government of Arunachal Pradesh with the NCERT pattern of the state board and changed our school name from Pema Mani primary school to Pema Mani monastic school.

The Pema Mani Monastic School adopts a curriculum that combines traditional subjects (Tibetan literature, prayer, and ritual) with elements of secular education, following the education policy formulated by the Department of Education,

Government of Arunachal Pradesh.

Currently, the Pema Mani Monastic School takes care of about 400 students, including Shedra students, providing them with a good environment for their learning and living. The school has classrooms according to their standards, dormitories, a library, an auditorium, as well as a playground, and a basic health facility, and takes care of all their other needs.

With the successful completion of the elementary curriculum (Grades 1–8), the students can carry on with advanced scriptural studies at the NGESANG DHONGAG JANGCHUB DARGYELING SHEDRA. Currently, Pema Mani monastic school has 209 students (198 boys and 11 girls aged between 5 and 19) and they are provided with the same facilities as the Shedra-goers. The students are happy under the guidance of appointed teachers (6 male and 3 female teachers), leaders, and health assistants.

Class-wise students’ strengths:
