Other institutions in the valley include a coffee research station and other agricultural research facilities, two primary schools, an airfield and aircraft engineering school, and the PNG headquarters of the Summer Institute of Linguistics, an evangelical Christian organization. The school is about  from the town of Kainantu. The school enrolled around 750 students in 2020. Subjects taught are: language and literature (compulsory); mathematics and advanced mathematics; biology; chemistry; physics; economics; geography; and history. In recent years, increased emphasis has been placed on improving the school's ICT infrastructure and new ICT and science buildings have been opened. References
