His father was an intelligent man bought a house in the Jessore District town. Graduating from Primary Khan and his elder sister sent to ‘Muslim Academy’ and ‘Seba Sangha Girls High Schoo’l respectively at Jessore. They used to cook, wash cloth, prepare lesson and other necessary household work. Real life started here at Jessore in secondary days. His School was next to Deputy Commissioner’s office and house at Smith Road near DC’s Bungaloo both are extant. Superentending Engineer C&B, District Judges, Police Super Office lies in between his house and school. His senior fellow students advised not to step either police office or DC Office which creates negative impression in his mind. However, this advice helped him to deliver service and create real public office when officiating in any Govt. Office. Under his leadership as National Project Director of Access to Information Project all these offices equipped with ICT to delivered service on line.
Sitting in the same classroom from 10 am to 4 pm was like punishment to him. This childhood experience helped to turn school life full of joy. He worked to build subject specific classroom. Facilitate moving student from one subject class to another with a interval of 45 to 60 minutes, flushes blood in their brain and body. Feel good instead of drowsiness. Classroom decorated with learning material created by students. Students feel proud when they see his creation is being displayed and shared by others. School benches were 6′ feet, students cant sit face to face to interact and work in a team. Self motivated students had nothing to do in the classroom in a team. When teacher’s are late or otherwise absent students had nothing to do rather waste time. He advocated for desk type furniture, so that students can arrange suitably and give a specific shape to interact face to face with each other. He tried to impose it strictly while having authority in this regard.
School tiffin period was rather funny. He used to put on half pant, wide enough to see the penis when sitting. This was the design at that time, as you can see in the army or police contingent in a old British period or early Pakistan period film. At that time there was no culture by the grace of garments industry to put on underwear. One street magician had been on the gate of School. His main mission is to sell candy. One day he was encircled before this candy man, all on a sudden he put his hand near his pant and created two eggs out of nothing. His created a news in his class, by this way the magician shut down his tiffin pleasure. He was a regular viewer but usually do not buy candy. Perhaps he deliberately drive away him by this feat. Khan learnt it and use this principle in a modified form to avoid killing time by some one, some times unpleasant and invites enmity. At Jessore he had not much to do except playing football, cricket, badminton etc. He was a good goal keeper.
However, Khan was not doing well enough in study as per his father’s expectation. Meanwhile, Jessore was warming up with demand of Independence. Again his father called back and admitted to Rajgonj Multilateral High School. Pakistani Military and Rajakar established military camp at his School. School Authority compelled guardian to send their children to school in a perilous period. He observed that one freedom fighter named Mukundo was captured and confined in a corner room after tortured. His whole body witnessed torture mark and died later. He found his shirt fixed with his injured body. One day he found on the way school three dead body pierced with bullet on the vegetable field of Shahpur. On the other day he found that teachers were queued on the school premise and beating with a round wooden roller like police baton. He left for ever but early independence created opportunity to again go and prepare for SSC exam. He graduated SSC from this school.
