Cadet College Hassan Abdal

Foreword by the Principal

Cadet College Hasan Abdal, being the first institution of its kind in Pakistan, has been a trend-setter in the field of quality boarding schools meant for boys. In its history of over sixty years, its graduates have not only contributed tremendously in the national mainstream, many have moved across frontiers, and are now playing their roles at the global level. Above all, being a trailblazer, the institution has helped set the blueprints of milliard of institutions, which have followed in its wake.

A well-rounded personality, built around the core values of character, integrity, intellectual superiority and commitment have always been at the centre-stage of our grooming at Hasan Abdal. That’s why our graduates have always managed to survive in some of the most hostile conditions of fiercest competition and of formidable adversity. They have always managed to fight their way to the top and have led from the front, because that’s how they have been prepared and conditioned during their highly impressionable years of adolescent youth here. Their natural propensities for effective teamwork and strong communication skills actually draw from the years of intimate comradeship developed in the dorms of their Wings here, and from the moments of mind-blowing sporting glory experienced at the Winlaw’s sports ground. Their eloquence and intellectual robustness are nothing but the reflection of their insightful and heated discourses in the class theatres of Ayub block, or during the after-dinner strolls around the Scholar’s Walk.

The BOGs have recently christened The CCH roads/facilities, and the College sports grounds have been named after the Second British Principal, Mr A.W.E Winlaw.

The road around the Oval, has been named as The Scholar’s Walk.

Academic excellence has always been the central point of our priorities here, because we know that it plays a pivotal role in the proper placements of our graduates. Hassan Abdal has produced so many high-achievers in its academic history that CCH has become synonymous with Board toppers. Our programs have had the strength to have our students accepted not only in the very best of the national universities, but even in some of the Ivy League institutions.

CCH has come a long way from where it started its journey 61 years ago, and is ready to take-on new challenges. With Pakistan at the centre-stage of many controversies in the global perceptions, we need to equip our scholars with the skills to not only excel and distinguish in multi-cultural global settings, but to also prove effective ambassadors of a progressive Pakistan. It’s time for us to break out of our national shell now, and to prepare our graduates for the greater challenges of a cosmopolitan global village. Which institution in Pakistan can be better placed to embark upon this new challenge than CCH?!!

Principal’s Special Message to Abdalians

My dear Abdalians, Asslam o Alaikum

As the old students of this great institution which has played a significant role in grooming you to your successes in life, I have no doubt that the interest of your alma mater measures very high in your priorities. So, as the erstwhile custodian of CCH, responsible for its present-day well-being and maintenance, I feel that I have to see no further than the vast multitude of the sons of this College who would come scrambling to serve the interests of their mother institution when called upon.

The needs of the institution are fundamentally two-fold i.e material and intellectual, and I would like to briefly dwell on each. Firstly, the College infrastructure is sixty years old, and to be quite honest, everything is virtually bursting apart now. Being an institution serving the bright lads from mostly poor/middle class over the years (and shunning all temptations to make quick bucks by resorting to self-finance schemes like most other good institutions did in crunch times!), our limited budgets have never allowed us to move away from our most immediate needs. Years of neglect as well as financial constraint have led us to the current state of deplorable maintenance, which is not at all compatible with our great name and tradition. (I am sharing some pictures as attachment/in the enclosed CD, which are so deplorable that I can only share them with my Very Own only.). On the intellectual front too we have not fared very well. Although we have retained our edge in academics, the ideals of all-around personality grooming (once believed to be the principal hall-mark of our institution) has been somewhat diluted too over the years due to under-paid faculty and to our failure to keep up  our global linkages due to shrinking financial capacity. With scores of similar institutions which have mushroomed all over the country in the last decade, coupled with vacillating government priorities, the official budgetary support has actually eroded in the real terms, and still worse, it is not likely to improve in the coming years. So, we might have to be waking up to a very rude shock, but lo and behold beyond any doubt that the only guaranteed lifeline we can really bank upon is really ourselves.

I am very surprised that the realization of this collective responsibility (to look after our alma mater) took so long to dawn upon us, and even failed to prompt us to something as obvious as the establishment of an endowment fund. All great institutions have had hefty endowments all along, which are accumulated over the years, and for CCH this should been done long ago. However, this belated initiative has finally been taken now under the expert guidance of a financial-wizard son of the college, who has helped us device our endowment policies in line with the best practices of the field. These include, virtually ‘untouchable’ capital amounts, multi-signatory trustee account holders, third party audits by renowned chartered accounting firms, periodic updating of audited accounts sheets  on the website, and above all, sharing complete details of the expenditures out of donations made for specific purposes. So this should take care of some commonly-held perceptions about the funds being swindled away for unintended misuse.

You will be glad to know that besides Endowment, which is obviously an extremely sacred trust, we have incorporated a lot more transparency even in our normal day-to-day financial accounting. For instance, the Principal is no longer the sole signatory of the College accounts, there can be no cash transaction of more than Rs 20000 anymore, all significant payments have to be strictly through crossed cheque, and that we have to strictly follow the PPRA procurement rules in our purchases. Above all, unlike in the years gone-by, there are very frequent Board Meetings to ensure a very intrusive compliance to the rules ( i.e. during the last seven months, two meetings each of the BOGs and Executive Committee have taken place. This would contrast significantly with the BOGs meeting just preceding the last two, which had taken place four and a half years earlier).

So, gentlemen you can clearly see that we are doing everything in our power to regain your trust. Because I feel that from now on, your trust is actually the lifeline of this institution, and may I say it candidly (even at the cost of a bit of overstatement!), that without this trust our dear alma mater may ultimately be  dying a slow but sure death. So let us all donate generously to our endowment fund, and play our role in the rehabilitation of our alma mater.

The decision whether a boy is fit for admission to the 1st year class or take up the Pre-engineering or Pre-medical course in the 1st Year class rests entirely with the College.

For the internal assessment of the cadet, terminal tests in May/June and in December, a Home Task Test after the summer vacation and the Annual Promotion Examination in March are held during the academic year. In the first three tests, the cadets are generally examined from the course covered during the term while in the annual promotion examination, they are tested from the whole course covered over the academic year. Cadets failing in any two subjects in two terminal examinations or promotion examination are detained in the same class. Those cadets who fail for the second time are withdrawn from the College.

In the event of the failure of the scholarship holder to show satisfactory progress i.e. 60% marks in the terminal test, home task test and promotion examination, the scholarship is reduced or in more serious cases, withdrawn.
