果洛三所藏族私立学校数周内相继被关闭：孤儿学校 300 余名儿童失学，藏人行政中央指加速同化Three privately run Tibetan schools in Golog closed within weeks; orphan school's 300+ children displaced, CTA cites assimilation drive

据藏人行政中央新闻部的报告（达兰萨拉 10 月 17 日，经通讯社 10 月 20 日转引）：9 月 2 日，当局关闭了位于玛沁县大武乡的果洛扎德孤儿学校。该校 2005 年创办，资金来自旅居德国的已故土乌·洛桑班丹博士及其夫人；学校为 300 多名失去双亲或来自破碎家庭的儿童同时提供住所与教育。一周前的 8 月 27 日，当局关闭了拉加吉美嘉措草原女子学校（又称刚坚察塘女子学校）。报告称，消息来源指政府正在藏区系统性关闭私立学校，以加速民族同化，把藏族儿童转入更容易接受政治“再教育”的国营机构；电话与互联网通讯受到严密监控，使西藏境内的独立信息极难获得。[1]

据 TCHRD 经《西藏快报》10 月 21 日的报道，被关闭的三所学校是：果洛扎德孤儿学校（9 月 2 日，约 300 名儿童）、拉加吉美嘉措草原女子学校（8 月 27 日）与加萨（Jasag）的一所村小。这些学校优先教授藏族语言、文化与社区传统；关闭后，学生被推入汉语授课的公立学校。[2]

寒冬（Bitter Winter）10 月 20 日的调查佐证了女子学校的关闭：该校又称草原女子学校、雪域草原女子学校，由僧人教育家拉加·吉美嘉措 2005 年创办，21 年来教育安多牧区女孩藏语、佛学、藏医、唐卡及现代科目；关闭后校舍被接管，更名为“拉加镇女子中学”，办学模式变为“民办、公助”。寒冬还指出先例：2024 年 7 月 12 日，当局关闭了吉美嘉措 1994 年创办的吉美嘉措民族职业学校。联合国专家估计，约一百万藏族儿童生活在远离家庭与母语的国营寄宿学校中。[3]

去重说明：本站 10 月 19 日“拉让寺前主持堪苏洛桑丹巴被判五年”一文中，已提及刚坚察塘女子学校与加萨克学校被关闭——其中女子学校即本报告中的草原女子学校（同一所学校，译名不同），属同一事实的不同报道，不重复收录为新事件；孤儿学校与加萨村小的关闭是本次报告新增的事实。本记录以“数周内三所学校被关闭的系统性行动”这一报告本身为记录对象。[1][2][3]

核实说明：本记录记录的是藏人行政中央新闻部 10 月 17 日的报告及 TCHRD 的相关陈述。报告引述的是“地区内可靠消息来源”，在电话与网络被严密监控的果洛，西藏境内的独立核实极难实现；中国官方未就本报告作出回应；寒冬的调查主要依赖流亡媒体与社媒材料。故本记录对报告中的关闭事实全程归属，定性为持续核实。[1][2][3]

According to the CTA Department of Information and International Relations report (Dharamshala, October 17, relayed by wire services on October 20): on September 2, authorities closed the Golok Tadrak Orphan School in Tabo Village, Machen County. Founded in 2005 with funding from the late Dr. Tawu Lobsang Palden and his wife, who lived in Germany, the school gave both a home and an education to more than 300 children who had lost both parents or came from broken families. A week earlier, on August 27, authorities shut down the Ra-Gya Jigme Gyaltsen Grassland Girls' School (also known as Gangjong Tsathang Girls' School). The report says sources describe the government as closing private schools across Tibetan areas to accelerate national assimilation, moving Tibetan children into state-run institutions where they can more easily be subjected to political 're-education'; heavy surveillance of phone and internet communications makes independent information from Tibetan areas extremely difficult to obtain. [1]

According to TCHRD via Tibetan Express on October 21, the three closed schools are: the Golok Tadrak Orphan School (September 2, ~300 children), the Ra-Gya Jigme Gyaltsen Grassland Girls' School (August 27), and a village school in Jasag. The schools prioritized Tibetan language, culture and community traditions; after closure, pupils were pushed into Mandarin-medium state schools. [2]

Bitter Winter's October 20 investigation corroborates the girls' school closure: also known as the Grassland Girls' School or Snowland Grassland Girls' School, it was founded in 2005 by monk educator Ragya Jigme Gyaltsen and for 21 years taught Amdo nomad girls Tibetan language, Buddhist philosophy, Tibetan medicine, thangka painting and modern subjects; after closure the premises were taken over and renamed Ragya Town Girls' Middle School under a 'privately run, publicly funded' arrangement. Bitter Winter also notes the precedent: on July 12, 2024, authorities closed the Jigme Gyaltsen Nationalities Vocational School that the founder had created in 1994. UN experts have estimated that around one million Tibetan children live in state-run boarding schools, far from their families and their native tongue. [3]

Deduplication note: this site's October 19 record on the Ragya monastery abbot's five-year sentence already mentioned the closure of the Gangjong Tsathang Girls' School and the Kasak school — the girls' school being the same institution as this report's Grassland Girls' School under a different transliteration, i.e. the same fact in different reporting, not a new event; the orphan school and the Jasag village school closures are new facts from this report. This record takes the report itself — a coordinated three-school closure campaign within weeks — as its subject. [1][2][3]

Verification note: this record documents the CTA Department of Information and International Relations' October 17 report and TCHRD's related statements. The report cites 'reliable sources in the region,' and independent verification from inside Tibet is extremely difficult under heavy phone and internet surveillance; Chinese officials have not responded to the report; Bitter Winter's investigation relies mainly on exile media and social-media material. This record therefore attributes the closure facts throughout and is graded 'under ongoing verification'. [1][2][3]
