Ashrafi National Educational Trust is a non-profitable organization founded to set up and run educational institutions in the city of Sheikhupura. Behind the name of trust there is dream of serving the people of the city. The Trustees were feeling the need of an ideal institution for boys for a long time as the boys had to go to Lahore in search of good institutions to cope with the challenging demands in the field of education. The dream was materialized and National Model Higher Secondary School started functioning in April 1989.

The school owes its foundation to the initiative and foresight of Haji Muhammad Bashir, the managing trustee of Ashrafi National Educational Trust.
