Myoma National School (1929)

No.2 Basic Education High School was formerly known as Myoma National Boy's High School. In the 1920s national schools were opened across Myanmar with the purpose of implementing the national education objectives.

Myoma national schools were born out of the national freedom struggle together with national education and national spirit.

Of them all, this school was the first-born Myoma National School.

U Ba Lwin BA (Honours) MA 1929 - 1953

The foundation of this school began in 1920. The school was under construction from 25.11.1929 ( the 10th waning day of Tasaungmone,1291 Myanmar Era ) until 4.12.1931 (the 10th waning day of Tasaungmone,1293 Myanmar Era ).

Only with the strong effort of U Ba Lwin, the first headmaster of the Myoma National School and the parents' donation, could the school be successfully completed.

Formerly, it was not a government school. It was nationalized on the 1st of April, 1965 and became a State High School and later became known as, at present, No.2 Basic Education High School, Dagon.

Our school gained recognition in the course of Myanmar history and Myanmar education sector.
