Boys' High School & College, (BHS), is an independent school in Allahabad, India. It was founded in 1861 to provide a Christian education to the children of Europeans and Anglo-Indians, but has always accepted children from all backgrounds. Though originally co-educational, it now admits only boys.

It has existed on its present site in central Allahabad since 1861. Since 1940 it has been managed by the Allahabad High School Society. It is currently affiliated to the Council for the Indian School Certificate Examinations.

Governor B.L. Joshi on 5 November 2013, released a commemorative postage stamp to mark 150th anniversary of Boys' High School.

Established in 1861, the school was founded and initially run by the Church of England. From 1898 to 1914 Boys' High School was affiliated to the University of Allahabad.

It participates in, and hosts "Alfresco", a district level annual inter-school competition.
