Ideal School and College, Educational institution in Motijheel, Bangladesh
Ideal School and College is an educational institution in Motijheel with multiple large structures: a five-story building for the English section and a ten-story college building. The campus operates across three locations in Dhaka and serves around 26,000 students in both Bengali and English medium instruction.
The school began in 1965 as a primary school founded by residents of Motijheel AGB Colony. After Bangladesh gained independence, it grew to include secondary classes, and a college division for women only was added in 1991.
The school shapes how education happens in this Dhaka neighborhood, with girls attending morning sessions and boys using the afternoon and evening hours. This separation reflects daily routines that visitors can observe in how the buildings function throughout the day.
The main campus is easy to recognize by its tall buildings that stand out from the surrounding structures. The separated shifts mean different areas of the institution are active at different times of day, which can affect what you see when visiting.
The college section admits only female students and has operated from its own dedicated building since 1991. This specialization makes it a notable place for women's education in the region.
