I, Utpal Kumar Mandal, HM, of this institution and son of Radhagovinda Mandal was born in 1966 in a village which is at a distance of 6 km from sub-divisional town Raghunathganj, Dist. Murshidabad. We are two brothers and four elder sisters, all of whom are highly educated. My father, a poor primary school teacher is very popular in the area and known as very honest and responsible person. He was also an exceptional Anchal Prodhan who was in the chair for 37 years(1963-1998) at a stretch. My Primary schooling was from my village Bagha, P.O- Ghorsala, Msd; Secondary Edn. from Raghunathganj High School , where I served as Asstt. Teacher and Asstt. H.M. for 14 years. I got National Scholarship in M.P. 1981, took H.S.Edn. from Jangipur College, graduated (Physics Hons)from famous Krisnath College, Berhampore; M.Sc.(Physics) from Rajabajar Science College, Kolkata, and B.Ed. degree from David Hare Training College, Kolkata. Before final result of M.Sc. I joined as AT in Raghunathganj High School, leaving the opportunity of research. From very beginning I did not spare no pains to discharge my duties to the utmost satisfaction of the authority and tried to provide all round support to my students. I organised many Science Exhibitions specially in Golden Jubilee of Raghunathganj High School and my present school Srikantabati P S S Sikshaniketan. In 2003, I joined as HM in Kandi Raj High School, which was established by the Raj family of Kandi with the request of Pandit Iswar Chandra Vidyasagar. The secretary and President of the school was Atish Chandra Sinha and famous scientist Bikash Ch. Sinha. Performances in two years of my working period regarding administration and development had been highly praised and facilitated by the then A.I. of schools(SE),Kandi Sub-division.
I joined this present school on 1.3.2005. Before my joining infrastructural and academic performances of the school was very poor. I have made a sheer change in the infrastructure and teaching-learning process of the school. In 13 years 54 new rooms with all facility have been constructed. Plenty of Furniture have been made. The old building have been thoroughly repaired. Good arrangements of drinking water , sufficient toilets, laboratory and library etc have been have been provided. Science stream and vocational section have also been introduced in this period. More than that I think that i have brought back the ambience of education for which this institution have become one of the largest school of the sub-division. So many works in such short time has been possible with the financial assistance of the local people and my indomitable endeavour. This school is also now used as camp office of WBBSE and WBCHSE. All round development of the school made it as one of the best school in the district. I truly consider the school a temple and give as much time as I can.
