Chakdwipa High School is a higher secondary school affiliated to the West Bengal Board of Secondary Education (WBBSE) and West Bengal Higher Secondary Council (WBHSC). The school is named after the name of the village Chakdwipa, a beautiful village by the side of river Haldi.
Formally established in 1949, Chakdwipa High School is one of the most sought after schools in the locality. The approximate student strength in this school is 1600. The teaching faculty strength is rougly 30 (with a number of para-teachers, part time teachers recruited as a part of Sarba Siksha Policy of the Govt of West Bengal).
The school boasts of 'Prafulla Smriti Vignan Sanstha' which has colection of various biological samples, some rare.
The school has a laboratory of Chemistry and one of Physics. However, the facilities are negligible compared to what is needed.
The library has a few reference books but unfortunately it is noway an impressive collection. (The condition of secondary and higher secondary schools in West Bengal, especially in rural areas, are in general very miserable- with lack of proper infrastructure and the teachers often forced to indulge into politics.)
Much of the improvements of this school is due to Late Paresh Chandra Malakar, ex-head master of the school. Dr. Subesh Kuity had a brief but successful stint as an HM. The present HM is Ashis Patra, an ex-student of this school.
