History
The Tarini Charan Girls school was founded in the 1950s and was initially located in the Uzanbazar area of Guwahati. [5] It subsequently shifted to the present site located at the Guwahati club. [6] In December 1963, the Government decided to take over the school, which had previously been government-aided.
The previous principal of the school was Haramohan Dev Goswami. [7] As of 2018, the school has had no principal or vice-principal in post for five years, and twenty-five staff vacancies in total, which has "crippled" the school and pupils' results and the number who are able to take science subjects. [8]
