HistoryThe school was founded in Abbottabad in 1948 by the Mill Hill Fathers from Britain, who had earlier opened a similar school in Srinagar, Kashmir in the 1930s. The name of the school refers to 'Burn' (a Scottish term for brook/stream) and 'Hall' (as in old English/British style buildings), therefore a hall with a stream running near it or through it. This was indeed the case as a small stream is present in the grounds. {{citation needed|date=March 2018}}{{Coord|34|11|21|N|73|13|59|E|display=title|name=Army Burn Hall College for Boys}} Since the British Empire was built by men who came from the English public school system, the Fathers replicated the system and promoted sports and extra-curricular activities such as music, debate, dramatics, and art as a means of character building.[3][4] Since the 1980s, however, the school has been increasingly run on military lines, churning out cadets for various branches of army service.[5] The students of Burn Hall are known as 'Hallians'.{{citation needed|date=March 2018}} See also
