History
Pabna Cadet College was one of six cadet colleges set up in a second wave (1979-1983) after the initial four were established between 1958 and 1964, during the Pakistan era.[1] It was created on 7 August 1981 by converting Pabna Residential Model College.[2] It started with 170 boys of the residential school in four classes.[3]
As of 2022, the cadet college boards 320 boys, between the ages of 12 and 18, in six classes from class VII to XII.[3][4]
Campus
The cadet college is located on 30 acres (12 ha) on the north side of the Dhaka-Pabna highway at the village of Jalalpur in Pabna Sadar Upazila, about 10 kilometres (6.2 mi) east of Pabna.[2]
Within the campus are a three storey academic block, student housing, a dining hall and adjacent canteen, and Bir Sreshtha Nur Muhammad Hospital, named after Bir Sreshtho Lance Naik Nur Mohammad Sheikh.[5][6]
Administration
The Bangladesh Army provides some of the funding for cadet colleges, administers them, and runs them on a military model.[7]
The school is headed by a principal, appointed by the Adjutant General's branch of the Bangladesh Army. Other key administrators are a vice principal, an adjutant (an army major), and a medical officer (a captain/major from the Army Medical Corps).[citation needed]
Notable alumni
Cadet colleges were designed to be feeder schools for the officer academies of the armed forces, but nowadays they are no longer reserved for students planning to pursue a career in the military.[8]
