Geographical Location of Hnahthial

Education and Hnahthial
The children of Hnahthial are fortunate enough to have different institutions in their locality where they are sent to by their parents or guardians at a very low cost. One such school amongst the existing six private schools is Nuchhungi English Medium School with the largest number of students enrolment for a considerable number of years. In fact, the students enrolment in the government-run schools is decreasing rapidly in recent years contrary to that of the private schools which admit more and more students each year. This clearly shows how the local people rate the schools run by the state government and those run by private individuals or the local churches from their performance. In any chain of educational system, the importance of elementary education can never be ignored. Children should be treated well right from their very first day at school, otherwise, it could be too late.
