The Dreamland School was founded on 15 January 1973 by Mr. B N Chatterjee. It was one of the first private English Medium Schools in the region. The first building was erected in Makhla, Uttarpara which was then rural. The school started with five teachers and 30 students, and now has 90 teaching staff and 5000 students.
The second campus (called the Benepukur building) in the same region began in 2000 to make room for the growing number of students. In 2003, the school named Mr. Indranil Chatterjee as the vice-principal, Mr. Barun Bhandari as the Headmaster and Mrs. Rakhi as the Academic-in-charge.
In 2006, the school announced new independent campuses[1] in further suburban regions of Janai and Haripal to cater to the poorer sections of the society. It has constructed another building in Raghunathpur, not far from Makhla, to host the ICSE and ISC exams. It was first named as Churchbell School, and would be later renamed to Binapani Teachers Training College.
