Rashtriya Military School – Ajmer (formerly King George’s Royal Indian Military School), established in 1930, is an educational institution located in Ajmer, Rajasthan, India.

Managed by the Indian Army, the institution offers education mainly to the wards of defense personnel but civilians are also offered admission.

RMSA has four hostels - Ashoka - AK, Subhash - SC, Pratap - PP and Prithviraj - PJ. The school is situated at the scenic foot of Mount Madar. The school is located near the main bus stand.

The campus includes the academic block, student hostels, teachers residence, support staff residences, mess, grounds, gymnasium, swimming pool, MI room, stores, and Dhobi Ghats. There is a very old Shiva Temple along with one prayer cum Pooja Hall.

The students join the school in class 6th (sixth) and continue their education up to class 12th (twelfth). Students may get admission in class 9th and 11th, on CET (Common Entrance Test) and 10th Board marks respectively. All students stay in the hostel for the duration of their studies.

There are few day boarders and children of school staff who are studying in school. Activities start with morning PT (health run), academic classes, afternoon prep (for doing home work or self study) followed by evening games (such as football, hockey, basketball, volleyball, badminton and swimming). There are competitions for dramatics, poetry recitation for juniors, speech, declamation and debate competitions, wood-work, art and drawing.

Rashtriya Military School, Ajmer was established on 15 November 1930 as King George's Royal Indian Military School for the education of the sons of defence personnel. After Indian independence a parliamentary committee headed by HN Kunzuru recommended the re-organization of all King George’s Royal Indian Military College on public school lines. In 1952, the school was reorganized on public school lines and admissions were made open to the sons of Defence Service Officers and Civilians.

In 1954, the school became a member of the Indian Public School Conference (IPSC). The school was renamed Military School in 1966 and its old motto Play the Game was replaced with Sheelam Param Bhushanam ("Character is the highest Virtue"). In 1976, the school switched over to the 10+2 scheme of the Central Board of Secondary Education.
