R.P stands for Radiant Public School. Its aim, as the name indicates is to disseminate the radiance of knowledge to the people of Kashmir and others. The first Ayat which was revealed to Prophet Mohammad was (Iqra) which means “read”.  The verse says: Read in the name of Allah who created man from Alaq (a leech like thing).

As stated by Prophet Mohammad(صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم)  that pursuit of knowledge is obligatory on every Muslim, male and female. In another Hadit the prophet has said, “Seek knowledge from cradle to grave.” Although R.P school has been established on Islamic principles yet its doors are open for all irrespective of religion, creed, caste or colour. We believe knowledge is not the monopoly of anyone. We do not believe in the Muslim sectarianism
