History

Dhaka Residential Model College, formerly known as Residential Model School, was established in 1960 in an area of about 50 acres at Mohammadpur, Dhaka. It was placed under the direct control and management of the Government of Pakistan (Bangladesh was part of Pakistan until 1971). In 1962, the central government gave it to the provincial government, which created a Board of Governors for managing its affairs. After the liberation of Bangladesh, the school was placed under the control of an autonomous Board of Governors, headed by the Secretary of the Ministry of Education. The school began with one study session, known as the 'morning shift'. In 1993, another session known as the 'day shift', was added according to the education expansion policy of the government, to cope with the growing number of students.
