🎓 A Journey Rooted in ICB
Sadia Malik’s educational journey began as a young girl walking the corridors of Islamabad College for Boys (ICB)—an experience that ignited her passion for learning and shaped the teacher she would one day become. From Prep to Grade 5 at ICB, she absorbed values of discipline, dedication, and excellence that would guide her for life.
