The Gandhi High School in Pécs, Hungary (in Romani: Gandhi (Mashkarutni Shkola ando Pech)), was founded with donations given by several individuals from the private sector and with further donations from other organizations in 1992, this becoming the first high school for Romani people in Hungary, that has been actively operating since 1994.

[citation needed] The school is financed by the Government of Hungary with additional funds from the EU and by donations.

[citation needed] The school consists of 6 classrooms where about 250 male and female pupils study, mostly between the ages of 14 and 18.

[citation needed] The first group of students beginning in 1994 took their school-leaving exam (A-level) in 2000 and out of 18 pupils, 16 have applied to universities, whilst 7 out of the 18 students gained entry to their desired universities.

[citation needed] Although the school is open to all, currently only five non-Romani are being enrolled to our institution but hopefully this picture will soon change as quality of education is being improved.
