Doon Global School is a co-educational, CBSE-affiliated boarding school in Dehradun, at the 14th Milestone on Chakrata Road in Jhajra. The school opened in 1998 and has taught boys and girls together for 28 years, from Nursery through to Grade XII. Residential places begin at Grade 3 and continue to the end of school, so a child who joins the hostel in the junior years can stay on the same campus, with the same teachers, right up to the board examinations.

Families comparing co-ed boarding schools in Dehradun usually arrive with two sets of questions. The first is about the school itself - the board, the streams, the teaching, the fees. The second is quieter and harder to ask on a first phone call: how boys and girls actually live and learn alongside one another, and what the school does to keep every child safe. This page answers both as plainly as it can, and says so where the honest answer is one the admissions office should give you directly rather than a web page.

The wider picture of residential life - hostel arrangements, prep, fees and the admission route - is set out on our boarding school in Dehradun page. What follows is specific to co-education.

What co-education means here

Classrooms, timetable and playing fields are shared. The residential side is not.

One classroom, one syllabus

Boys and girls sit in the same 32 classrooms and follow the same CBSE syllabus, under Affiliation No. 3530108 and School Code 81149. There is no separate set of subjects, no separate standard of marking and no separate expectation.

One timetable

The academic programme, assembly, lessons and laboratory periods are shared by day scholars and boarders. Ask admissions for the current weekly timetable and any seasonal changes before arranging a visit.

Shared laboratories

The May 2026 public disclosure lists seven laboratories. Ask to inspect them and confirm how practical periods and computer access are scheduled for each class.

Sport for everyone

Published school materials list cricket, football, basketball and athletics. Confirm the current coaching, selection and practice schedule for day students and boarders.

Clubs and the stage

Published school materials describe music, dance, art and craft, debate, Model United Nations, science, robotics, photography and theatre. Availability can vary by class and term, so confirm the current activity list.

Service and leadership

NCC and NSS units are open to boys and girls alike. House duties, committee roles and the running of school events are given on the basis of interest and reliability, not on anything else.

Hostel block at Doon Global School, a co-ed boarding school in Dehradun

Separate hostels, shared campus

Boys and girls are accommodated separately. Each hostel has its own supervising staff, who live and work alongside the children in their care. Supervision is only part of that job; they are the ones who notice which child has gone quiet in the first fortnight, who is struggling in mathematics, and they are usually the first people a parent speaks to.

Boarding runs from Grade 3 to Grade XII on a campus of 26,510 square metres. Younger boarders are supervised more closely, and the independence expected of a student widens as they move up the school rather than arriving all at once.

Several questions that matter a great deal - how rooms are allocated, what the residential routine looks like for a particular year group, what a child should bring, how families keep in touch - are settled with the boarding office at admission. They depend on the age group and are reviewed each session, so please ask us on 9997073777 or 7455997333 rather than work from a general description.

How house staff, class teachers and parents work together through the year is described on our pastoral care page.

How the school protects every child

A co-educational residential school carries a particular duty of care. These are the measures in force.

  • A written Child Protection Policy and a designated Child Protection Officer
  • A POSH policy governing complaints of sexual harassment, set out on the POSH policy page
  • A zero-tolerance anti-bullying policy applied to boarders and day scholars alike
  • A counsellor and wellness teacher on the staff, alongside a special educator
  • Published fire safety certificate
  • Published building safety certificate
  • Published safe drinking water and sanitary-condition certificate
  • Current entry and CCTV arrangements to inspect during a visit
  • Current medical response and parent-notification process to confirm
  • Current transport route, vehicle and staffing arrangements to confirm

Raising a concern

Ask the school to confirm the current routes for a student or parent to raise a concern and the roles of house staff, class teachers, the counsellor and the Child Protection Officer. The published policies are linked on the safety and security page. Before counselling, ask about availability, scope, consent, records, confidentiality and its safeguarding limits; see the counselling page for a verification checklist.

The same academic path, from Nursery to Class XII

Teaching is arranged in four stages. Nursery to Grade 5 is activity based. Grades 6 to 8 move to subject specialists and laboratory work. Grades 9 and 10 focus on board preparation. Grades 11 and 12 offer Science with Mathematics, Science with Biology, Commerce and Humanities, subject to current eligibility and availability. Assessment follows the current CBSE scheme; ask which Olympiad and competitive-examination support is offered this session.

The May 2026 CBSE disclosure lists 44 teachers - 17 PGT, 16 TGT and 11 PRT - plus one special educator and one counsellor/wellness teacher. It lists Principal Cdr Monika Pande's qualifications as MSc, BEd.

What parents of daughters ask us

Sharper questions deserve factual answers, and an honest referral where a page cannot give one.

Sending a daughter to board is a decision families weigh carefully, and the questions that follow are usually specific. Here is what the school can state as fact.

  • Residential accommodation for girls is separate from the boys' hostel, with its own supervising staff
  • The campus has 24 toilets for girls and 17 for boys
  • Ask the transport office to confirm route availability, vehicle equipment and staffing
  • Confirm the current stops and journey time for your address
  • A POSH policy, a Child Protection Policy and a designated Child Protection Officer are in place
  • The May 2026 disclosure lists one counsellor/wellness teacher; confirm current availability, confidentiality and safeguarding limits, and whether any parent workshops are scheduled
  • Ask admissions to confirm current fees, stream availability, scholarship eligibility and leadership opportunities in writing; school policy should apply without gender discrimination

Questions this page deliberately does not answer - visiting arrangements, room sharing, the exact shape of the residential day - vary by year group and may be reviewed each session. Call +91 74559 97333 or write to admissions@doonglobalschool.edu.in for the current answer, and ask to see the hostel while you are on campus.

Admission runs in six steps: inquiry, document submission, an entrance assessment for Grade I and above, an interaction with the Principal, fee payment and orientation. The admissions page lists the documents to keep ready.
