About

Cadet College Petaro, established in 1957, stands as one of Pakistan’s most prestigious boarding institutions, dedicated to nurturing and grooming the future leaders of the nation. Located in the serene surroundings near the historic city of Hyderabad, Sindh, the college is spread across a sprawling, secure campus that fosters a unique blend of academic excellence, military discipline, and moral development.

Built on the core values of honor, duty, and commitment, Cadet College Petaro has, for over six decades, shaped thousands of young minds into responsible citizens and trailblazers. Our institution is not just a school — it is a legacy. From the moment a cadet steps onto our grounds, they become part of a time-honored tradition that balances rigorous academics with character-building activities, instilling qualities of leadership, discipline, and resilience.

Our alumni — known with pride as Petarians — have gone on to achieve excellence in the armed forces, civil services, engineering, medicine, academia, business, and beyond. Their achievements continue to be a source of inspiration for the next generation of cadets.

At Petaro, we believe that education is not limited to textbooks alone. Our approach emphasizes a holistic learning experience, where cadets are trained not only to excel in academics but also to develop a strong moral compass, physical endurance, and a spirit of service to the nation.

Whether it is in classrooms, on parade grounds, or in moments of quiet reflection, every aspect of life at Cadet College Petaro is designed to shape principled, courageous, and visionary individuals ready to meet the challenges of tomorrow.
