Rashtriya Military School, Belgaum is an all boys residential school affiliated with the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE), New Delhi. Founded in 1945 as King George the VI Royal Indian Military College, the school is one among the five Rashtriya Military schools in India. Initially admissions to the school were restricted to the sons of JCOs and ORs of the Army and their equivalent ranks in the Navy and Air Force and the boys were prepared for the Army Special Certificate of Education Examination.
The school was later renamed King George’s Military College and was re-organized along the lines of residential public schools opening admissions to the sons of service officers as well as civilians. The school switched over to the Senior Cambridge Certificate Examination and the condition that all boys should join the Defense services was also dropped. The school was simultaneously renamed King George’s School.
In 1963, the school obtained affiliation from CBSE and on January 1, 1966, the school was renamed Belgaum Military School, Belgaum. In January 1998 the prefix ‘Belgaum’ was dropped and the School was re-designated Military School, Belgaum.
