About The Doon School
Welcome to The Doon School, an esteemed all-boys boarding school for students aged 12-18. We take pride in being one of the few All India schools, receiving applications from nearly every state in India, as well as from Indian families overseas. Founded in 1935, The Doon School is recognized as one of Indias finest educational institutions, known for its strong intellectual foundation. Unlike many other schools, The Doon School is a true full-boarding school for boys, not simply a school that accommodates boarders. Set on a beautiful 70-acre campus, surrounded by diverse flora, fauna, and birdlife, the school offers students ample green space and fresh air in which to live and learn. This environment—rarely found in schools, whether in large cities or small towns in India or abroad—fosters both academic and personal growth. At Doon, students benefit from continuous support, with access to the teaching staff, the Wellness Centre, and a school counselor who reside on campus throughout the week. This ensures that boys have the time and space to focus on their studies, as well as pursue extracurricular activities such as Sport, Art, Music, Drama, and Careers Guidance, all without the distraction of long commutes. The Doon School provides a holistic learning experience, preparing students for university and beyond with no time wasted. 454
