Bangladesh School Muscat was established on November 3, 1996, under the sponsorship of the Bangladesh Embassy in Oman and with the approval of the Omani Ministry of Education. It began with a small number of students and teachers under embassy patronage, serving Bangladeshi families in the Sultanate. The school follows a British-based curriculum for Kindergarten through Grade 12 and uses bilingual instruction, with English as the main medium and Bangla taught as a core language. Over time, facilities expanded to include science and computer laboratories, a library, and sports fields to accommodate a growing student body.
