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:
“The 1990s, after the reign of terror of academic vandalism, will be a decade of restoration: restoration of meaning, value, beauty, pleasure, and emotion to art and restoration of art to its audience.”
—Camille Paglia (b. 1947)
“We recognize caste in dogs because we rank ourselves by the familiar dog system, a ladderlike social arrangement wherein one individual outranks all others, the next outranks all but the first, and so on down the hierarchy. But the cat system is more like a wheel, with a high-ranking cat at the hub and the others arranged around the rim, all reluctantly acknowledging the superiority of the despot but not necessarily measuring themselves against one another.”
—Elizabeth Marshall Thomas. “Strong and Sensitive Cats,” Atlantic Monthly (July 1994)
