Burn Hall School is one of the famous schools in Kashmir, India. It is situated in Srinagar the summer capital of Jammu & Kashmir.
It was founded in the year 1956 and recently celebrated its Golden Jubilee. Right from its inception, it has maintained a high standard of education and acted as a nurturing ground for some of the leading lights of the valley. Omar Abdullah, once MP and now leader of the National Conference, was a student at the school. On the other side of the kashmiri political spectrum, Mirwaiz Omar Farooq too counts as an alumni of the prestigious institution and passed his high school in 1989 from the school. The school, established by christian missionaries based in Ireland, has come a long way in establishing itself as a leader and trend-setter in primary and secondary education in the Kashmir Valley. It recently expanded itself to include a higher secondary wing. Many of its Alumni are excellent speakers and fine debators, with Burnhallians bagging top prizes in many interschool events.
The school has high tech cameras all over the campus, and is considered strong in all educational disciplines. It is known for its role in introducing English as a medium of language.
On 20th September 2007, Jibran Bhat, a student of the school launched the Burnhallians community website http://www.burnhallians.com to bring all the X-Burnhallians and Burnhallians together. Burnhallians.com community is the only one of its kind for any institution in the valley.
