History
[edit]In order to provide up-to-date education to the children of the army personnel working inside the cantonment, Bogura Cantonment Public School and College was established in 1979 at Bogura Cantonment of Bogura district. The then President of Bangladesh, Ziaur Rahman laid the foundation stone of the institution.
As the cantonments are located far away from the main city, the Bangladesh Army has to take such steps. In it’s first years, the institution had provided education in Primary and Secondary levels only. Then it was upgraded to Higher Secondary level in 1984. It is one of the educational institutions established and managed by the Bangladesh Army. At present, it is a famous and reputed educational institution in the Northern Bangladesh.
