Khulna Public College was established on 20th January, 1987. At the end of 6O decade, an academic building (present old building) was built by the erstwhile Pakistan Government with a view to establishing a secondary school. However, before getting the school started, liberation war took place in the country. During the war the campus was used as a camp of rival Pakistani army. After our independence the campus was being used as jail till 1983. In 1983 jail authority shifted the jail and the campus went under the authority of Facilities Department (now Directorate of Education Engineering.). People of Khuina gradually started demanding that the campus should be used for which it was built. As a result of people’s interest and cordial cooperation from the then education Minister Momin Uddin Ahmed and education secretary Kazi Azhar Ali, the institution started functioning as a secondary school on 20 January, 1987 and subsequently opened college section in the same year. At first it was introduced as “Sundarban Boys' Public School”; however, after the opening of college section it was named “Sundarban Boys' Public School and College”. Afterwards to give the institution its actual honor, it was named “Khulna Public College”. Since its inception the institution has been following the model of famous Public Schools in Britain and is likened to Dhaka Residential Model College. This institution is only for boys.
