According to authorities, the incident, which took place in the staff room of Government High School Tari Mangal, featured many gunmen.
According to authorities, this incident is suspected to be connected to one that happened earlier in the day when a man was shot in his car in the neighborhood.
The suspects are still at large.
The specifics of what occurred at the school in the remote Kurram district, which borders Afghanistan, are yet unknown, and investigators have not determined a clear reason.
Officials said that a guy was shot and died in his automobile this morning in Kurram district. He was thought to attend the same institution.
A mob allegedly besieged a school in Tari Mangal, a tiny village, in retribution.
At least four instructors and two support staff members were among the seven persons that died at the school. Three police officers were hurt during the attack. The deceased's bodies have not yet been located.
The Express Tribune was informed by Samina Altaf, the head of the education board whose district includes Tari Mangal, that the pupils inside the school were safe.
According to local accounts, the instructors at Tari Mangal were reportedly at the school preparing for exams when the shooters entered and started shooting.
Through his party's official Twitter account, former president Asif Ali Zardari expressed regret over the murder and labeled it terrorism.
