Austrey School is an O-level-oriented primary and secondary school in North Karachi, Karachi, Pakistan and is wholly owned by Ermine, a British educational management organisation. The current Principal is Mrs. Rubina Mahmood. It was founded in 2000 as Campus I of Ghazi Public School. It is now named after the village of Austrey, Warwickshire, England. The school occupies an extensively modified large former house in a residential area. English is the medium of instruction in all subjects except Urdu and Sindhi. In the tradition of Maria Montessori’s educational philosophy, Austrey School encourages creative play.
