A proposal has been sent to the Ministry of Education to rename the historic Shibganj Pilot Girls’ High School in Bogura as ‘Shibganj Mir Shahe Alam Pilot Girls’ High School, Shibganj, Bogura’. The proposal, dated June 9 and signed by Senior Assistant Secretary Shirin Akter of the Secondary and Higher Education Division, has triggered local discussions and controversy. The school, established in 1973, is the only pilot girls’ school in Shibganj upazila.
According to the ministry’s letter, the proposal will be reviewed under Article 14.5 of the 2023 amendment to the Private Educational Institutions Policy 2022. Authorities have been instructed to conduct an on-site inspection to assess the rationale, necessity, and local opinion regarding the name change and to submit a comprehensive report with recommendations.
Separate letters have been sent to the Chairman of the Rajshahi Education Board and the Deputy Commissioner of Bogura for investigation and opinion. The ministry will make a final decision based on their findings. Local sources report mixed reactions, with some supporting the change and others urging preservation of the school’s traditional name.
