This is one of the schools we will be visiting in Bangalore.Bishop Cotton Boys School , Bangalore
Founded on April 19, 1865, by the St. Mark's church Chaplain, the school took the name of Bishop Cotton of Calcutta. After five years , in 1870, the school acquired its present site of 13 acres at a cost of Rs. 22,000. This school was a co-education oriented and a separate school 'Bishop Cotton Girls School' was started exclusively for girls later, thus making way for Bishop Cotton Boys School exclusively for boys. (Information and pictures taken from http://www.bishopcottons.com/bcbshist.htm) Look out for more details after our visit to the school.
