A lot of the schoolgirls and some teachers were family members of military personnel. (In the US, families often live "on base," I guess it's similar. The building was originally part of the compound but it was walled off when it was made into a school. It makes sense to me that ina place where girls and women are restricted from traveling, they'd need a school close to home.
