Coronation Institution

Bogra Coronation Institution

Bogra Coronation Institution is going to celebrate its 100 years of jubilee on 18th March 2011. The school was founded in 1911 at north of Bogra Kalitala Haat and was named ?George School? on February 1, 1912 after the King George V. Later it was renamed ?Coronation Institution?. At first all the school had a tin shed for its classes. The founding directors were: District Magistrate Sri Borodakanta Talukdar, Nabab Abdus Sobhan Chowdhury, Khan Bahadur Hafizur Rahman Chowdhury and Khan Sahib Riaz Uddin Kazi.

The school had always done well in academics and sports. Most guardians valued both these pursuits. The public supported it too, and a building soon replaced the tin shed with government support. Some of the people to have served as Headmaster in the early days of this school include Sri Purnendu Chakrabarti (1912), Babu Girishchandra Bhattacharya (1914), Satyendranath Das (1915), Jeetendra Mohan Moitra (1916-1922), Narendranath Chakrabarti (1923-1929) and Umeshchandra Bhoumik (1930-1940).

At first, the school only offered grades 3 to 5. Later they started taking 6 to 10. This is how it was until 2004. In 2005 the school started offering classes from KG to 11th grade. In its first year, the 11th grade had 11 students. Currently it has 44. The numbers in KG are also increasing.
