The Chatmohar Model Government Primary School in Pabna, originally founded in 1922 as Sreeshchandra and Raghunath Primary School during British rule, remains one of the oldest educational institutions in the region. Established by the Hindu aristocrats of the Barobari family, the school began with tin-roofed classrooms on 15 decimals of land and served as the first formal primary school in Chatmohar. It later expanded to eighth grade and played a key role in spreading education among local children. The school was nationalized in 1973 and renamed to its current title.
Former students recall its contributions to the community, noting that many alumni became doctors, engineers, and government officials. The school also had active participation from students during the 1952 Language Movement and the 1971 Liberation War. Currently, it has 317 students from grades one to five.
Despite its long history, the school faces severe infrastructure shortages. Only six classrooms exist where nine are needed, and the principal lacks a separate office. Local education officials have proposed relocating the adjacent resource center and constructing a new multistoried building to resolve space constraints.
