It is my privilege to lead this wonderful school, which truly is a school focussed on learning, and in which the voice of all students, staff and parents is heard and valued. We have a ‘can do’ culture that ensures that teachers are constantly evolving and emphasising on innovations to keep learning as our main focus, and that the lives of our students are filled with meaningful and purposeful experiences. Therefore, with great joy and enthusiasm, I welcome each and every one of you to Doon School Srinagar. As we come together once again, let us celebrate the possibilities that lie ahead and the sense of unity that makes our school community truly remarkable.
As we navigate the challenges of 21st century, we are constantly evolving our methods while staying true to our core values of empathy, compassion integrity and excellence. Whether it’s through our cutting-edge digital learning initiatives, community outreach programs or alignment of our curriculum viz; projects and assignments with SDG themes, we are encouraging students to think critically about global issues. Our workshops and seminars on sustainability make our student community to apply their knowledge to real-world sustainability challenges.
Doon School Srinagar under the aegis of Wilmot Foundation: We are continuing to take an advantage of our association with Wilmot Foundation as this collaboration gives our students and teachers a chance to compete with the global communities across the world. These exchange programmes with the students and teachers across the globe through Wilmot Foundation help our students and teachers to grow as global citizens.
It is our international ethos and composition which is valued by all parents in the school. This sets us apart in valley as a truly international school, where our students grow up developing the skills of intercultural competence, preparing them as future change-makers in the ever-changing global community.
It is a joy to walk around the school and see the students enthusiastically participating in their learning. Creating active enthusiastic learners is key to our Vision which is: "Empowering Individual success". We encourage them to ask questions; we foster their curiosity, and we aid them to understand how they can think even harder. We concentrate on the positives focusing on what students can do, and therefore we celebrate this, so that each of our learners develops the confidence and strong self-image that will support them in facing the challenges of life beyond school.
At Doon School Srinagar, learning is lifelong, and we educate our children not for an endpoint but for the future.
