2.1. Why Nepal School Mela-2021?

Considering this pandemic situation, College Readers, with support of ten-plus- two schools/colleges throughout Nepal, launched Virtual Edufair-2020 (virtualedufairnepal.com) that has proved the best meeting point among students, colleges, parents and the stakeholders to get appropriate information before selecting any relevant institution. After getting huge successful in conducting virtual edufair-2020  and 2nd Vitual Edufair-2021 where more than 300 plus two schools and colleges across Nepal had participated, it has encouraged us to launch Nepal School Mela-2021, focusing school students and guardians.

School Profile, Virtual Tour, Photos, Videos, and amenities of most of the reputed schools have been incorporated along with live interaction in the website of Nepal School Mela-2021 (www.nepalschoolmela.com).

The fair is aimed at helping thousands of students and guardians and hundreds of  schools to directly interact with each other and find the customized right fit for both.
