Changes in education were one of the most far reaching, impactful and lasting legacies of the British Raj in India. In the Punjab, interventions in education were not initially led by the British but by American Presbyterian missionaries. Using the setting up of the Rang Mahal School in Lahore as a micro study, this paper assesses the early period of educational change in the Punjab by examining the role of American Presbyterian missionaries in introducing modern, as well as, English medium education in the Punjab. The paper also argues that as a result of these educational interventions the focus of missionaries shifted from conversion to the diffusion of Christian knowledge through education.
