History

Before the independence of Bangladesh, the then East Pakistani government established four cadet colleges in the former East Pakistan that followed the British public schools' model. After independence, due to the success of those schools, the Bangladesh Defense Forces kept those colleges and established eight more cadet colleges, three for girls and five for boys.
Previously, it was Barisal Residential Model College. In 1981, the Bangladesh government converted it into a cadet college. Its first principal was Md. Mufazzal Husain who was also the project director during the initial phase of development. As a cadet college, it has numerous placements of its alumni in the national armed forces.
