Initially known as College of Education and housed on the Ground Floor of Bhai Parmanand Institute of Business Studies Building¸ Shakarpur¸ Delhi the college assumed its present name¸ Maharshi Valmiki College of Education¸ later in the year 1997 drawing inspiration from the high ideals of the great teacher Valmiki.

Marking a humble beginning with its Bachelor of Education programme with only 38 students from the Humanities and Social Science streams¸ the college got initiated into the process of shaping its promising profile under the inspirational leadership of the philosopher¸ artist and teacher late Professor RP Sharma¸ Former Head & Dean¸ Faculty of Education¸ University of Delhi¸ who took over as its Founder Principal (Officer on Special Duty) on 21 September 1995¸ the day since being celebrated as Udbhav Diwas every year.
