School Philosophy

The formative years that a child spends at school are perhaps the most instrumental in shaping the future of the child. Recognizing this the school is deeply committed to providing the children with a stimulating and positive environment that facilitates the development of the children into capable, confident and responsible individuals who are equipped with all the requisite skills to carve out a niche for themselves, as they step out into the world.

The core purpose of Doon International School is to create an inclusive community of confident, motivated and successful learners.

We aim to achieve this by the following measures:

  • By recognizing that each child is different, and by encouraging our children to reach their optimum potential based on individual ability and to develop lively, enquiring and reflective minds.

  • By building a strong academic foundation and equipping our children with all the requisite skills required for them to excel in their future endeavours.

  • By giving meaning and joy to the students’ learning experience and by encouraging self motivation, enterprise and a commitment to lifelong learning.

  • By providing a balanced and inclusive school curriculum that introduces the children to all aspects of human knowledge and experience.

  • By motivating and educating our students to be responsible citizens, with particular focus on developing in them a strong character, with personal traits such as kindness, empathy, tolerance, understanding, respect and integrity.

  • By inculcating in our children a deep respect for human relationships and diversity irrespective of beliefs, religion, culture or status.
