Bashundhara Public School and College: World-Class in Education and Sports

The Bashundhara Public School and College (BPSC) campus is aesthetically pleasing with a vast green field at the front. Its striking seven-story building houses state-of-the-art classrooms, a well-equipped library, and a spacious cafeteria - all designed to inspire creativity. Adjacent to the school, the Bashundhara Sports Complex features a pristine swimming pool and more than 20 popular sports facilities for students.

Set to open on January 1, 2025, BPSC will offer world-class education alongside extensive sports opportunities. Designed by renowned Bangladeshi architect Mohammad Foyez Ullah, the campus spans ten bighas in Block N of the Bashundhara Residential Area. With open spaces, lush greenery, and diverse recreational amenities, the campus is thoughtfully designed to foster students' mental, social, and physical development.

There are Bangla and English versions based on the national curriculum for Nursery to Eighth grade. The school’s curriculum is designed to foster the development of students’ talents. This will empower them to overcome the challenges of modern life and become skilled individuals, well-prepared for their future careers.

Regarding the modern academy, BPSC Principal Brigadier General (retd) Md Anisur Rahman said the school authorities aim to improve the quality of education through sports, values and ethics.

“There’ll be world-class teaching methods, drawing on the experiences of top-performing schools of the developed world. The specialty of this school is having all kinds of sports activities alongside study. Children can’t play in Dhaka city for lack of fields,” he said.

All students of BPSC will access all kinds of sports opportunities in Bashundhara Sports Complex, which is close to the school. There are experienced instructors to teach them how to swim in the swimming pool. This institution is unique of its kind in the country.

The principal mentioned that the academic programme of the school is starting on 1 January next.

“We’re giving priority to children’s education as well as overall safety. All arrangements have been made to ensure security on the entire campus. Parents will be automatically notified when children get on and off the school bus,” the seasoned academician added.

The BPSC will offer NFC (near-field communication) cards for all students to ensure tech-based surveillance inside and outside the campus to make guardians tension-free.

A modern and safe learning environment has been ensured for students. The building has three corridors on both sides and in the middle. Apart from this, there are open balconies and lift facilities all around. For this, students and teachers can move safely and comfortably. There are adequate lighting and ventilation on the entire campus, including classrooms.

A wider campus has a positive impact on the learning process of students, especially in the early stage of life. When students enter the BPSC campus, they will experience a difference from other academic institutions.

The BPSC is arranged in such a way that it seems like a world. Through the drawing, the story of the young child who comes to the first school holding the hands of his/her parents, passing through the exuberant adolescence and reaching the desired goal with the enthusiasm of youth is depicted. By raising their hands here, students will be able to develop into enlightened people by seeking knowledge.

Students need to use digital ID cards to enter the school. They can use this card to pay bus service, cafeteria and even tuition fees. Students must leave the school premises using the card. This digital ID card will play a role in cashless transactions.

Various initiatives have been taken to familiarise students with modern technology. Students can stay connected with global information through interactive learning platforms, online resources and databases. This will broaden the scope of students’ learning and make them more efficient.

The BPSC ensures 1,000 square feet of space for each classroom. The classrooms are built in two rows. Each of the four sections in every class has been assigned a distinct colour. These colours symbolise different values that will foster the students’ mental development. For instance, blue represents ambition, green signifies peace, yellow denotes self-confidence and orange symbolises determination.

Each classroom is equipped with state-of-the-art technology and is air-conditioned. Classrooms have smart boards and projectors.

Students can easily keep pace with the modern education system and acquire technical skills. According to the school authorities, sports and physical activities have a significant impact on students’ overall development and preparations for higher education.

Various sports opportunities like cricket, football, volleyball, kabaddi, swimming etc are kept here for the students. Students will be trained by reputed trainers. Students will be able to compete in the world of sports at the national and international levels by crossing the boundaries of the school grounds.

Along with developing the talent of children, Bangladesh will be glorified in the international arena.

Regarding the curriculum, Principal Anisur Rahman said the BPSC academic curriculum is being developed in an organised and balanced way.

“It ensures diversity and depth of content for pre-primary, primary and secondary students. Apart from Bengali, English, Math, Science and other subjects, the institution also has opportunities for creative and practical education. Subjects like dance, singing, drama and drawing are included to enhance students’ creativity,” he said.

There are various subject-wise clubs where students can participate and develop their talents while each club has a separate studio. The school has a language lab. Experienced doctors and psychiatrists will ensure the physical and mental health of the students.

The BPSC has a modern computer lab for students. The academy focuses on information technology where students can prepare themselves to excel in future careers.

It lays special emphasis on technology innovation and coding education apart from state-of-the-art laboratories for science and math education.

These two laboratories will play an important role in the learning process of the students. A state-of-the-art library has been developed to enhance the learning habits of the students. There is a modern library rich with local and international resources for the little ones to inspire them to read books. Apart from this, an e-library has also been attached. There is also a multipurpose hall, a gallery and a modern cafeteria.
