Adamjee Cantonment School, Dhaka Cantonment was established in early 1960 under the auspicious of Alhaj. Gul Muhammad Adamjee, Managing Director of Mehern Jute Mills Limited at Karachi, Pakistan. Begum Gul Muhammad Adamjee laid down the foundation stone in January 1958 and after completion of the main building in January 1960, Mr. Ayub Khan, the then President of Pakistan inaugurated the institution. The efforts that were taken under his guidance to establish a quality English medium institution led to the birth of Adamjee Cantonment School in line with the British public school. The institution was later renamed as Adamjee Cantonment College. Till 1995 the school and the college were in the same building. Later the school section was shifted to its new building. The institution has a very high credibility. Students who passed from this institution are well placed in their respective professional fields at home and abroad.
