Academic System
Cadets are enrolled in the seventh grade. They continue their study for six years. The Higher Secondary Certificate(HSC) is the final examination to pass. Each class generally has fifty cadets divided in two sections.
The Secondary School Certificate(SSC) and the Higher Secondary Certificate(HSC) examinations are administered under direct control of the National Board of Education of Bangladesh. All the examination dates are announced in the academic calendar at the beginning of the each academic year. A calendar year is usually divided into three terms. The annual parade, physical training(PT), games and sports and cultural shows are integral parts of this academic system, and every cadet takes part in these activities. From 2003 all the cadet colleges were converted to the English version of the National curriculum. Beside these, cadets are taken to study tours every year.

Famous quotes containing the words academic and/or system:
“Short of a wholesale reform of college athletics—a complete breakdown of the whole system that is now focused on money and power—the women’s programs are just as doomed as the men’s are to move further and further away from the academic mission of their colleges.... We have to decide if that’s the kind of success for women’s sports that we want.”
—Christine H. B. Grant, U.S. university athletic director. As quoted in the Chronicle of Higher Education, p. A42 (May 12, 1993)
“I am fearful that the paper system ... will ruin the state. Its demoralizing effects are already seen and spoken of everywhere ... I therefore protest against receiving any of that trash.”
—Andrew Jackson (1767–1845)
