Rajshahi University School and College (Bengali: রাজশাহী বিশ্ববিদ্যালয় স্কুল ও কলেজ) is a co-educational Bangladeshi school and college located within University of Rajshahi. It was established in 1966. The school has 2,200 students and employs 43 teaching staff.
The school was started in February 1966 on an experimental basis, operating out of Rajshahi University's Mannujan Hall. It began as a primary school up to class II. Each year it was extended by one or two classes until it became a high school. To accommodate the rising number of pupils, it was moved to the Juberi Building.[1]
The university's psychology department took over the school for their research. It was shifted again, this time to the department's former location, the tin-shed. By the mid-1970s, it was called The Experimental School. The higher secondary section was added in 1983. The school was moved into a concrete building. In 2000, the university's Institute of Educational Research took over the school, which was renamed Rajshahi University School.
By 2024, it had become a school and college under its current name.[2] It has 43 teachers and 2,200 students.
The school is located in the southwestern part of the University of Rajshahi.[3]
Sports include cricket and badminton. A yearly cultural week is observed.
