About
KGBV Markapur, a Kasturba Gandhi Balika Vidyalaya, is a girls-only residential school located in the Markapur block of the Prakasam district in Andhra Pradesh. Established in 2007, it operates under the management of the Tribal/Social Welfare Department and is affiliated with the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE).
The school caters to students from grades 6 to 10. While some information suggests a lack of a school building, playground, and library, the overall aim of KGBV schools, including KGBV Markapur, is to provide quality education and support to girls from disadvantaged groups, such as Scheduled Castes (SC), Scheduled Tribes (ST), Other Backward Classes (OBC), and minority communities. The medium of instruction is Telugu, and the academic session begins in April. The school is accessible by all-weather roads.
