Later in 1899, the school was named Kotchandpur English High School at the initiative of Edward George MacLeod, Mr. B. Allen, Mr. JJ Platel and Mr. Masudul Haq. After shifting it to the house of Clive MacLeod, (later owned By Gostha Behari Das and Usha Rani Das), the school was named Kotchandpur High School. Later, it was again renamed Kotchandpur Pilot High School. After nationalization in 2018, the school took the shape of Kotchandpur Government Model Pilot Secondary School.[3]
