Udayan Higher Secondary School Dhaka

Udayan Higher Secondary School Dhaka is one of Bangladesh's most distinctive educational institutions, established in 1972 to provide education for the children of freedom fighters (Muktijoddha) following Bangladesh's Liberation War. The school has since expanded its mission to serve a broader community while maintaining its special character as an institution honouring Bangladesh's liberation struggle. Udayan offers both Bangla-medium and English-medium programmes from Secondary through Higher Secondary level following the Bangladesh national curriculum. The school is known for instilling strong values of patriotism, secular democracy, and national pride alongside academic rigour. Udayan's location in Rayer Bazar — a historically significant neighbourhood connected to the 1971 Liberation War — gives the school a unique sense of purpose and identity. The school maintains science laboratories, a library, computer labs, and sports facilities. Udayan graduates carry a deep sense of Bangladeshi national identity alongside their academic qualifications. The school has produced many of Bangladesh's committed public servants, academics, and civil society leaders who embody the values of the 1971 liberation movement.
