We at Doon Convent School
believe in nurturing
not just minds but hearts
and spirits too.

“Not just lectures but real life experiences”

At Doon Convent School we believe that true education is not just about information—it's about Transformation. Our Rooted Learner Framework nurtures learners from the inside out, grounding them in identity, purpose, connection, culture, and reflection. Inspired by timeless Indian wisdom and modern educational thought,this framework shapes confident and compassionate individuals


About Doon Convent School

WHAT IS THE ROOTED LEARNER FRAMEWORK?

The Rooted Learner Framework is a guiding
philosophy that cultivates learners who are:

  • • Deeply connected to their identity and values
  • • Purpose-driven and intrinsically motivated
  • • Collaborative, empathetic, and socially aware
  • • Culturally rooted and inclusive in perspective
  • • Reflective and self-aware in their learning journey


Drawing from our rich heritage—Swadharma (self-purpose), Purushartha (life goals), Samvāda (dialogue),
Samskara (cultural rootedness),and Svādhyāya (self-study)
our approach blends timeless values with modern learning, helping children grow both rooted and future-ready.

Rooted Learning in Action

Learning to know

Value Education

Not confined to a subject period. It is the soul of our learning philosophy. We aim to raise not just successful individuals, but good human beings—rooted in values.

Learning to do

Mindfulness and metacognition

Awareness within and learning beyond. We empower children to become aware of their thoughts, emotions, learning processes, and behaviours in the daily routine.

Learning to be

Cultural immersion

Woven into the fabric of everyday learning through folk stories, Kumaoni festival celebrations, Nukkad natak. For a child to grow into a thoughtful global citizen, they must first be deeply rooted in their own heritage

Learning to live

Project-based learning

Learning by Doing - Thinking by Solving - Growing by Creating is the motto of PBL at our school. Our learners investigate real-world questions, build solutions, create products, and reflect on their process.

Learning to know

Teacher-Student bonds

Modelled on the Guru-Shishya tradition. Teachers are not just instructors—they are mentors, guides, and co-travelers on a lifelong journey of learning. Students are not passive recipients—they are seekers, whose individuality is respected and whose potential is gently awakened
