History

Kamrunnessa Government Girls High School was originally established as a branch of Eden College and it was separated from the college in 1924 and renamed as Kamrunnessa High School. It was named by Nawabzadi Akhtar Banu after her mother, Kamrunnessa. Kamrunnessa was married to Nawab Sir Khwaja Ahsanullah Bahadur, the Nawab of Dhaka. It was supported by Akhtar Banu and her sisters. Sir Khwaja Nazimuddin, the chief Minister of Bengal, nationalised the school after the Partition of Bengal in 1947. The school became a government school and was moved to 25 Abhoy Das lane, Tikatuli.
